A little TLC goes a long way🥹 you've seen us shoutout our staff members who work with our dogs- but we haven't shown the cat side as much. Our "cat ladies" Sylvia and Casey are truly two of a kind. Whether it's tending to new intakes or loving on the older residents, they make sure every feline friend that enters our facility leaves feeling better than before. If you haven't stopped by the shelter and met the people who keep this place running, I highly recommend planning a visit❤️

Diamond is a bulldog mix. She is up to date on vaccines including rabies, spayed, and microchipped. She enjoys her time outside hunting for lizards and frogs but her favorite thing is laying out on a warm sunny day or on a warm bed all her own. She's not a fan of cats.

We need your help Monticello!! Jefferson County FFA is helping the shelter raise funds but also to help cover some of the cost for our youth to continue showing livestock. This program provides such an amazing outlet for the younger generation, keeping the passion for farming and agriculture alive for the future of our community.

The fundraiser is almost over and we are still a good ways from our goal. So if you're looking to support local and get ahead of Christmas decor now's your chance!

*poinsettias are mildly toxic to both dogs and cats. While it has been proven to be a myth that they are fatal to pets- we still recommend keeping them out of reach. Ingestion may cause irritation of the mouth and stomach*
