Adoption Fees are Waived!

We are proud to join the ASPCA's nationwide Rescue Effect campaign! This weekend, 8/29 and 8/30, all pet adoption fees are $0.

Animal adoption is more than growing your family and creating a loving home for pets. When you bring home your new best friend, you’re freeing space and resources for us to give more animals a chance. It’s a ripple: When you help one, you help many.

That's the Rescue Effect.

While CCHS is an independent nonprofit, we stand with ASPCA and shelters across the country, because when we work together, more animals go home.

If you have room in your home and heart for an animal, please consider coming to the shelter this weekend during our open hours.

Last Chance...

Thank you to everyone who has already supported our limited-edition merch, with art designed by Erin Eastham. We are thrilled at how many of our friends are wearing their support out in the community!

If you haven't already, order your summer-exclusive merchandise before it's retired on August 31, 2026. 

Tie-dye tees and cool colors await cat and dog lovers alike. Sizing is available for kids, and adults up to 4X.

!! The yellow "out-and-about bag" is back in stock! We know several of you were waiting for the fun yellow-on-yellow design, and we hope you snap it up!!

If you need something for your pet, or just want to spoil them, come to the shelter on August 29th for our Used and Like-New Pet Supply Sale!

RSVP on Facebook

Whenever we have an overabundance of donations we cannot use in the shelter or with our fosters, we want to make sure they get into the hands of those who will use them well.

There will be leashes and collars, blankets, pet beds, carriers, cat trees, animal costumes, training equipment, many (many!) toys, and much more.

See you there!
