Due to lack of capacity, we are not able to intake cats or kittens at this time. The shelter can provide a list of local rescues. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

My daughter's Girl Scout group made blankets for the animals and they allowed the girls to come in and meet some of the rescues. They all had a great tine and the staff was very friendly.

Everyone I encountered was very friendly. I drove from the east side of Columbus to adopt my handsome boy. I would happily make the drive again based on my interactions with staff.
