In Need Of More Foster Homes
We continually have both types in need of foster care. The spicy variety are typically the orphaned offspring of a feral mama cat, and need to be almost literally smothered with affection till they become purring, attention-seeking love nuggets. Whether you like ’em spicy or sweet, we’re always grateful for new foster volunteers. This kitten […]
Donate At Local Stores
The CHS donation banks found in local businesses throughout the county are an important fundraising tool for us.

We appreciate all the merchants who generously feature our donation banks […]

Play It Safe At The River – Put A Life Jacket On Your Dog
If you and your pup are cooling off at the river during this early summer heat wave, remember that the current can be dangerously swift just below the surface. Lifejackets for your dogs are highly recommended. Spread the word! Stay safe, everyone. ❤🐾

Bring Back Borrowed Traps, Please

Numerous traps have been borrowed and not returned, and folks aren’t responding to our phone pleas to get them back. We […]
