If you are interested in adoption, but unsure of which animal would be the best fit, let us help you! You can fill out an application (using the Dog or Cat Not Listed selection) and fill in your preferences on age, size, temperament, etc and we will give you suggestions.

For those waiting please remember social distancing, stay 6 feet apart. You may also stay in your car and call us 502-863-3279 and we can bring food out to you. If you are in need of food for your cat or dog you can apply for the program by filling out the Pet Food Bank Application.

We still need volunteers to clean during this time. We are only allowing two volunteers at a time in our adoption center and those people must be scheduled to enter. Call us at 502-863-3279 or email schscenter@yahoo.com to schedule a time to volunteer.
