The City of Dothan Animal Services have made a huge accomplishment! We have received a plaque from Best Friends for achieving a no kill status. This is made possible when a shelter reaches a 90%, or higher animal save rate.
This shelter has an incredible, dedicated team that has committed their time, and hard work to make this possible.
We would like to say a huge thank you to Save-A-Pet, who works tirelessly behind the scenes, and the other organizations who helped make this all possible.
I always say it takes a team to reach your goals and what a wonderful way to say, "We Did It!"

Good morning!

Kitten season is in full swing already. ๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ˜ณ

We are getting so many requests for help, but we have extremely limited spaces available. Kittens in our rescue are placed in foster homes, and those fill up fast, and they are not open again for a month or more.

This is all to say, if you message us, you will likely get a reply that we are full. We will of course make some recommendations, but other rescues are in the same position.

We are always looking for kitten fosters, so if you are interested, please, do reach out to us. We will be happy to explain our program to you.
We are also looking for volunteers to clean the cat cages at PetSmart, one day a week.

As always, thank you for your support! We really do appreciate all of you!
