Woof! Meow! One thing before you go…

Do you need to find a loving home for your pet?

Shelters are often inundated with pet surrenders, and do not want to provide a simple outlet that takes away the obligation of responsible pet ownership. Therefore, they would prefer that people try hard to find a solution before resorting to surrendering their pet to a shelter. If you must find a new home for a pet, please try posting to our adoption portal before placing the burden on the shelter. Direct adoptions work well and allow everyone to share in the accountability of their community!

We are the only no-kill animal shelter in St. Charles County, Missouri. We do NOT euthanize our animals to make room for new ones. We only euthanize an animal when the vet tells us it is the kindest thing to do for that animal or in the very rare case of extreme aggression.

Founded in 1973, we have grown in leaps and bounds, adding new programs to benefit animals and educate the public about their care, animal safety, the importance of spaying and neutering and many other topics. We care for and provide homes for nearly 1,000 cats and dogs each year! When space allows, we travel to other shelters and bring back some of their pets whose time is nearly up and give them a second chance at life.

    I'm not sure what the point of a no-kill shelter is if all the ones in the St Louis area are continually full to take in animals than have been abandoned or persons can no longer care for them due to the person passing away, being on the road as a single person with no permanent home, etc. If it's truly compassionate they would have answers or suggestion vs telling someone to take to the Humane Society. If there is a continuous waiting list whats the point? Instead name the facility a pet adoption facility since you often cannot or will not take in all pets needing to be rescued.
