Barnwell County Animal Shelter Foundation

Barnwell County Animal Shelter Foundation We are a 501(c)(3 nonprofit established in Nov 2007 to support the Barnwell County Animal Shelter. We expect our continued efforts to reduce the intake volume.

We are an accredited 501(c)3 nonprofit organization established in November 2007 - dedicated to the programmatic and financial support of the Barnwell County Animal Shelter and our rural community. We rely solely on community donations and grants to continue our mission. Our primary goals are as follows:

To improve health and overall well-being of animals housed at the Shelter. To improve the phy

sical facility so that more animals can be housed in a clean, safe environment. To reduce the number of homeless dogs and cats through promotion of spaying and neutering all pets. In 2022, with the help of Best Friends Animal Society, we implemented a Community Cat TNVR (trap-neuter-vaccinate-return) program. We have a dedicated team of volunteers who handle trapping, transporting and returning animals after they have been evaluated, vaccinated and spayed/neutered by the program veterinarian. Cats and kittens who can be socialized will be eligible for rescue or adoption. Those who are feral will be returned to the trapped location and are fed by community volunteers. Through these efforts, we have been able to process 687 feral cats with an average cost for each cat of $50. Current waiting list for this program is over 800 cats, with an average of 5-10 added each week.

No Pet Store Puppies Day is celebrated on July 21 every year to raise public awareness of puppy mills and their connections to pet stores that sell puppies, kittens, and rabbits. The holiday also encourages people to adopt their best friend from a local shelter or rescue or to do their research and find a legitimate breeder.

Have you herd? Things go udderly awry in the middle of July each year during Cow Appreciation Day. People dress like bovines for free food. It's a moo-ving experience to witness designed to save the lives of cows everywhere for just one day. How? By eating chicken instead, that's how.

Across the country, for one day only, adults and children alike herd into their local Chick-fil-A for their favorite cow meal. And it's not hay. 😂🐮
