🐾 BIG NEWS: Transport Opportunity & Urgent Need! 🐾

​We have an incredible opportunity coming up this Friday to transport some of our shelter cats to wonderful new opportunities!
Transports like this are a huge deal for our shelter and help us save so many lives, but we need your immediate help to make this trip a success.

​To safely move these kitties, we are in urgent need of 10 to 15 small plastic pet carriers.

​⚠️ What we need:

​Material: Hard plastic carriers only. For the safety and comfort of the cats during travel, we cannot use open wire crates.
​Size: Small or medium (not too large), perfect for a single kitty to feel secure.
​If you would like to donate a carrier to help our cats on their journey, you can drop them off directly at the shelter!

​⏱️ Drop-off Hours:
​Today (Monday): Until 5:00 PM
​Tomorrow (Tuesday): 10:00 AM – 5:00 PM
Please message our page for drop off times Wednesday and Thursday as we will be making runs preparing for this transport.

​Standard plastic carriers like the ones we need can be found here:

​Every single donation gets a cat one step closer to their fresh start. Thank you all for always stepping up for our animals when we need you most! 🐱❤️

Travel with confidence knowing your pet is safe, secure, and comfortable in the Spree Hard-Sided Pet Carrier by MidWest Homes for Pets. Designed for cats, small breed dogs, and other small animals like ferrets or birds, the Spree makes short trips-like vet visits, pet store runs, or park outings-...

🐾 URGENT SHELTER NEED: It’s Kitten Season! 🐾
​Our shelves are getting incredibly low, and we need your help to keep our tail-waggers fed and our tiniest rescues thriving! Right now, we are experiencing a huge influx of kittens, and our supplies are dwindling fast.

​If you've been looking for a way to support the shelter, we are in urgent need of the following items:

​Kitten Dry Food
​Kitten Wet Food
Kitten Milk Replacement (any brand powder preferred)
​Cat Litter (Non-clumping or clay preferred)
​Pedigree Dry Dog Food 🐶

​Every single bag, can, or box makes a massive difference for the animals currently in our care.

​📍 How You Can Help:

​Drop-off Location: Bring donations directly to the shelter at 185 Industrial Dr, Erwin, TN 37650.

​Ship Directly: If you prefer to shop online, you can have items shipped straight to our address!
