Adopt a Cat

Adopt With Us. Save Lives.

At Cherokee County Animal Shelter & Rescue, we know a thing or two about making connections and saving lives. Animal homelessness is a community problem that requires a community solution. Join us in helping the animals of Cherokee County.

What you need to know

  • Do not bring your own pets; we do not conduct animal-animal meet and greets.
  • We do have a meet and greet room for you to meet your new furever friend to ensure it is going to be a great fit for each of you!
  • Adopted animals must be transported safely inside a vehicle.
  • Adoptions take time. Please ensure you arrive at least 45 minutes before closing to meet our cats.
  • Please make sure you bring a valid form of ID.
