**All kittens have been fostered**

🚨 KITTEN FOSTERS NEEDED ASAP! 🚨

Our shelter kittens need your help! While they’re safe with us, the shelter environment can be stressful for young kittens. Many struggle to gain weight and thrive in a kennel setting compared to the comfort of a loving home.

🐾 We are urgently looking for foster homes for a 2–4 week commitment.
🐾 All supplies are provided.
🐾 Kittens can go as a pair or as an entire litter.
🐾 You provide the love, cuddles, and safe space—they’ll provide the purrs!

Fostering saves lives and helps these little ones grow strong, healthy, and ready for adoption.

Interested in helping? Contact us today:

📞 828-652-6643

Please share this post to help us find these kittens the homes they need! ❤️🐱

**we have several other litters available, these are just our most critical**

McDowell County…
We’ve yet again had another stray dog. This one was not so fortunate… For the second time this week we have another dog deceased from motor vehicle accidents.

This one is an older black dog, no collar, no microchip and was hit on I40 near the Nix Creek Bridge. 💔

Yet again, we plea with you. Abide by the leash law. Keep your animals on your property so not only they stay safe but so does the public!

Please email us if this was your dog…
