Sheldon the Quiet Sweetheart!

If you are a first time cat owner that is looking for an adult cat, we would recommend Sheldon aka Shelly. He is a quiet calm boy that just likes to chill and relax and enjoy pets when given. He is a docile boy that is good with cats/dogs/kids both young and old.

Sheldon was an owner surrender at Lee County Animal Shelter in Sanford due to his owners having to unfortunately leave due to military orders. They loved him and his sister Tuxie who we also took in, unfortunately they didn't have enough time to find them forever homes!

If you are interested in meeting this boy, he will be at PetSmart until the end of June and to be pre-approved for adoption please fill out the adoption application below:

Mama Gracie decided to have a hot dog for a snack this afternoon and do the thing. Welcome to the world to our three little Gracelets! Perhaps we should name them after condiments 🌭🤣

Shout out to Gemini AI which predicted yesterday she had 1 to 4 days to go 🤓

Looking for Foster’s!

Below are 10 pups who are looking for a soft place to land!

Each one has their own story, their own quirks, and their own happy little personality. Some are high energy, some are mellow, but all deserve love.

If you have the ability to open up your home to a pup needing somewhere to land while they hunt for a forever family, please apply via the direct link below!

We will help select one who will fit into your home dynamics as best as we possibly can! We cover their supplies and have multiple adoption events monthly to showcase who is looking for forever homes! 💜

Roxy, Lucky, and Gunner will be joining us tomorrow at Pet Supermarket in Southern Pines from 1-3pm!

Roxy is an older gal around 7-8yrs old, she’s a hound mix so be prepared for her to talk like one too! She is great with kids, cats, and dogs! She is SUPER clingy and loves being with her people!

Lucky is around 2-2.5yrs old lab mix. He is SO affectionate and happy! He loves to learn and please! He’s great with kids and dogs, cats are unknown.

Gunner is around 1yrs old now. We got him and his siblings off a euthanasia list. Gunner has been great with dogs, kids, and cats! He’s a gentle giant who just wants to be with his people and make them happy.

All 3 of these have been waiting for an extended period of time to meet the right home! We are hoping this weekend is their time to shine!

Sopresa says its going to be a Good Morning!

This sweet girl is enjoying all the cuddles that our volunteers and employees at PetSmart in Aberdeen gives her. She does have a grumpy face and shy demeanor when you first meet her, after a few pets she will melt in your arms.

She is looking for a family that understands that a little patience goes along way in a cat that needs reassurance. Sopresa loves being with other cats and would thrive in a home with another cat around. She is fine with dogs and would be good in a home with older children.

If your interested in meeting Sopresa then please fill out an adoption application here: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/POTP/Cat

Meet Toby 💜

Toby is on the hunt for a foster or foster to adopt! He will be transferring into our care soon from another rescue.

He is around 7-8 years old. Fully vaccinated and neutered. He lived with his original owner for 7 years but apparently they no longer wanted the responsibility of caring for a pet.

He is a happy guy. Super sweet and leash trained.

He is child, cat, dog, and chicken friendly!

If you can help, or are interested, apply via pawsofthepinesrescue.org! 💜

Under socialized shepherd with 5 puppies who are just a few days old needing help!

Received a plea for help yesterday after being informed of a shepherd who had been dumped in a neighborhood and she had been being fed by a few community members. Now, neighbors want her gone and are threatening to harm her and pups.

She currently is residing in a dog house on someone’s property with her babies however they do not have the means to provide proper care for her.

She is around a year old. As of current, she has not shown any aggression and will follow wherever her puppies go. She’s being a great mom. But she needs help.

This little family needs a special someone who understands that she isn’t going to immediately be their best friend, but really needs a soft and space place to raise her pups.

We provide support through the entire process to include supplies and medical care.

You provide the love and emotional support she needs during this time.

If you can help, please reach out to us via messenger OR submit an application via pawsofthepinesrescue.org 💜

Little Grace is... little... and the vet has cautioned she may need a c-section.
