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!
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.

I always unsure of the cats that make it to our colony, but in some it's obvious they have been "owned" at some time in the past, a chipping service at low cost would be great in our community...

the certificates we get for trapping are used at a local vet, who donates his time to do the surgeries, Friends of Pets and local vets, it's a win win....
