Kitten Season is here and shelters/rescues are overwhelmed. Please don't kitten nap, and folllow this guide on when to intervene. We know that taking kittens is to help prevent harm but the reality is that a kittens best chance of survival is with their mother. Far too often young kittens are brought in and do not make it. Remember that shelters/rescue will run out of room and at that point may have to turn away the kittens that you took.

If you find a kitten(s) outside, there are a few VERY important things to remember! Please make sure you are contacting us BEFORE touching/moving kittens if you're unsure of what to do. Most of the time mom is nearby caring for them and they need to stay with her!! https://www.humanesocietyofvaldosta.org/kitten-neonatal-care/

🐾If you find a kitten, you need to wait at least 4-8 hours to make sure she's not returning
🐾If the kitten is in a dangerous spat (like near the road) you can move them a short distance away to a safer spot for mom to find
🐾If a kitten is well fed, clean, and dry mom is caring for them!!
🐾Don't kit-nap! A kitten's best chance at survival is to stay with mom.
🐾Once babies are old enough, contact us to get them and mom spayed/neutered and help us end pet overpopulation!

Found kitten reports and questions can be emailed 24/7 to [email protected]

We are closed for intake but sometimes a new level of sadness makes you break you own rules.

Meet Bebe, an 18 year old Dachsund. This sweet creature was dropped off at the shelter by family as her mother has dementia. There are so many things that we could say about this awful situation, both for Bebe and her mother, but we will refrain. We want to focus on Bebe.

Bebe has been placed with one of our hospice fosters, so she is safe and will never have to know change again. We know that she has a heart murmur, very bad skin and horrible teeth but we still need to get blood work/urine sample to move forward with her health management. We are also in need of supplies (washable diapers, washable p*e pads, quality wet food) for her day to day care.

We are sad that Bebe had to come into our lives but already so happy that she is here.

** A special thank you to Simply Grace rescue for helping us with this baby.

Us trying to explain to Augustus "Gus" why he never gets any applications, but he doesnt understand....and truthfully neither do we.

Gus is a senior boy, aged around 11 years old, but he is down right perfect! He is a gentle, sensitive, and loving creature that deserves a forever home. People are constantly loving on him at adoption events but then we hear, "I cant handle the heartbreak." We know that it takes a special spirit to love a senior because they know that their limited time with a senior is always SUPER filled with love, and well worth the heartbreak.

If Gus isnt a match for you, please help us share him to find HIS special person.

URGENT FOSTER OR ADOPT HOME NEEDED
These pups are losing their foster home. These five pups are what remains from a litter of 10 that were born in rescue. They have been at the same home since they were born but now, they have to leave. We would love for them to go to their furever home but desperately want to keep them out of boarding. A puppy in boarding is heartbreaking. These guys are large but they are still babies, about to be 11 months old.

This pouty face girl is actually one of the happiest creatures that you could ever meet!!
Lulu is an around 7 year old pit mix and LOVES people. Her tail wages when her person looks at her, talks to her and probably even when they think about her. She desperately wants to be someone's priority so she can wag her tail 24/7. She is a couch potato, as you can see, she found the chair to sit in. Lulu gets along well with male dogs and loves cats.

If interested, please message the page for an application. All animals in the home must be up to date on vaccinations, flea/heartworm prevention and spay/ neutered.
