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!

Over ten thousand animals have been adopted through Friends for Animals since 1997 and the organization has provided homes to a steady stream of animals that have been saved from lethal injection. Adoption numbers continue to grow.
All animals are cared for in the adoption facility at 417 Kirksey Drive (between the National Guard Armory and the Burke County Animal Control office). The facility has grown into the largest no-kill animal shelter in Western North Carolina.

Do you need to find a loving home for your pet?
No-kill shelters do wonderful work, but as a result, are often inundated with pet surrenders. In the unfortunate scenario that you have to find a new home for your pet, please read through the rehoming solution and articles on this page before contacting the shelter.
