Local Spotlight: Southern Pine Animal Shelter

Finding Your New Best Friend

Pets arrive at the Southern Pine Animal Shelter facility in many ways. As an open admission shelter, all dogs and cats are accepted without regard to their health status or age. Here, these lost, unwanted, or homeless animals find sanctuary through humane care and attention while they wait to be adopted.

This is where you come in. The main mission of Southern Pine Animal Shelter is to find forever homes for these animals. However, they also want to unite you with your new best friend.

If you’re thinking about adding a furry member to your family, Southern Pine Animal Shelter would be thrilled to pair you with the perfect companion.

Kittens and puppies are available for those who want to raise their best friend from the beginning. There are also many adult pets that need a great family to call their own as they continue their lives. Don’t rule out this option—adult pets are just as lively, there are fewer surprises (and no potty training), and you’ll know about their size, attitude, and temperament right off the bat.

Get Involved

There are many reasons people can’t own pets, but it doesn’t mean you still can’t help out the great causes led by Southern Pine Animal Shelter.

• Volunteer: Volunteers are always needed to help raise awareness and save the lives of animals. As a no-kill shelter, a lot of future pets come to the facility, giving you the opportunity to step up and help.

Volunteers help in many ways, such as assisting with cleaning, taking dogs on walks, doing laundry, and cat and dog care. Also, helping hands are always needed for their events that promote animal safety and adoption.

• Fostering: Another great way to help the Southern Pine Animal Shelter is to become a pet foster parent. You can help save animals’ lives by opening your home and preparing them for their forever homes.

This responsibility involves caring for the pet, becoming a vital part of their life, and giving them a safe and loving place until a home can be found. There’s no more impactful way to help animals in the area.

• Donate: If you’d like to make a monetary contribution to the Southern Pine Animal Shelter, they’re always greatly appreciated and depended on. You can choose to donate however much you want.

You can also commit to a monthly contribution that helps with everything from ensuring there are enough supplies and food to helping relocate pets to homes across the country. You can even become a Kennel Sponsor!
