Featured Animals
Whitt is a majestic looking boy! He arrived at our shelter as a stray already knowing simple commands like sit and shake. He loves attention and to be pet and belly scratched by humans. Whitt makes a good walking or hiking buddy. Whitt will require a fenced yard to explore and to satisfy his big curiosity. He LOVES car rides and is smart to learn routines. He's about 60-65 pounds and about two years old. He prefers to play with female dogs and is selective about other male dogs. We always recommend a trial introduction with a potential adopter's dogs.
Cat overpopulation is a heartbreaking reality across rural Kentucky, and our community is no exception. Every day, more friendly cats and playful kittens arrive at our shelter, each hoping for a second chance at a safe, loving home. Whether you're looking for a devoted indoor companion or a hardworking barn cat, there's a feline friend here waiting for you. By choosing to adopt, you're doing more than bringing home a wonderful pet—you're saving a life and making room for another cat in need. Our adoption fee is $100, which includes spay or neuter, age-appropriate vaccinations, and deworming. Together, we can make a difference for the cats who need us most.

WHAT'S HAPPENING?
Trap-Spay/Neuter-Release (or Adopt!)
Right now, we have a special spay/neuter program for stray cats in the Powell County area. By trapping, altering, and releasing stray cats, we are able to address the animal population in a humane and effective way. For more information, contact the Powell County Animal Shelter at (606) 663-4998 or in person at 121 Echo Hollow Road in Clay City.
Foster Parents and Volunteers Needed!
As an animal rescue, we are always in need of foster parents. This gives us an opportunity to learn about the pet, socialize it, and determine who the pet would be the right forever family. We can also use volunteers at the shelter to keep the facility clean and the animals happy. Contact us for an application to become a foster parent today!
