Only with the help of this exceptional community can we reach our goal of eradicating the need for "sheltering" by reducing the number of homeless animals and dangers to any animals in Cherokee County.
Our core values are:
Compassion: We will treat all animals with the Five Freedoms and all citizens with respect regardless of their circumstances.
