Spay & Neuter
Our primary goal is to provide spay/neuter for dogs and cats through various programs.
Sadly, there are more animals than good homes. Our local shelter is full and making difficult decisions daily. Spay and neuter is the humane way to reduce the population of homeless and unwanted animals!
In 2025, we spayed and neutered over 1,500 dogs and cats. We have something big in store for 2026 – stay tuned!
Pet Assistance
We also help the animals and the people who love them through our owner assistance programs, including vaccinations, microchips, pet food, housing, and medical assistance. These programs help people keep their animals at home and out of the shelter.
During 2025 we administered 2,500 vaccines (rabies, feline distemper, and canine distemper/parvo) and microchips to dogs and cats!
Foster & Rescue
And we are working harder than ever to help those animals that are already here and in desperate need of a lifeline through no fault of their own. Because of the support of our donors, we are able to respond immediately when called.
During 2025 we rescued 660 homeless or unwanted dogs and cats, taking them into our pet foster homes and providing them with medical support and love!
There are many ways you can help.
Volunteer, donate, or become a member!
We are an all volunteer 501(c)3 non-profit humane society dedicated to providing spay/neuter assistance, shelter and veterinary care assistance, community education and outreach, and promoting the compassionate care and treatment of animals in our area.
All donations are used for animals in our local area.
Thank you to our Partners!

🐈🐈⬛ Looking for Working Cats? You don’t need a barn to help them thrive!😻
Did you know you don’t need a barn to give a “barn cat” a safe, meaningful home? Many of our working cats simply need a low‑traffic outdoor space and a human who’s willing to provide food, water, and shelter. That's it!
These cats aren’t suited for indoor life, but they’re incredible at natural pest control and do wonderfully in all kinds of environments, including:
- Garages
- Workshops
- Sheds
- Warehouses
- Garden centers
- Back porches
- Hobby farms
- Storage buildings
If you have a quiet outdoor area and a little room in your heart, you can give a cat who can’t live indoors a second chance at life. We provide everything you need to get started — including supplies and guidance on safe acclimation. You just need a safe space and the willingness to care for a cat who prefers to keep their independence.
Interested in adopting a working cat or learning more? Send us a message — we’d love to help match you with the perfect feline teammate.❤
