Our Featured Pet
MAGGIE!
Maggie is an absolutely adorable 4 yr old "Peacock who was rescued from a rural kill shelter, where her fur was heavily matted and she had what seemed like hundreds of ticks all over her body. She has since been shaved and had all the tick picked off and boy is she feeling better! Its important to note that Maggie does normally have long whitish hair! We think Maggie is about 4 years old and while she currenlty weighs 29 lbs, she should probably weigh about 20 lbs! She is very quiet and loves to sleep in a crate. She is completely potty trained. Her favorite things are the big dogs at the foster home where she lives. She also plays by herself with balls and stuffed animals. She will shake them and throw them for herself to go and fetch. She is learning to trust her new humans and is slowly warming up to petting and treats. Even though she seems afraid she has never snapped or shown any aggression to people. She really loves to play with the other dogs but tends to play too rough for the little ones! . We are not sure how she would be with children but she woudl probably do best in a home with no children under 10. Maggie is spayed, heartworm tested negative, flea and tick free, fully vaccinated and microchipped!

We are a network of foster homes of people who provide temporary foster care primarily for Cherokee County's strays and displaced animals while they await their forever homes. Our primary foster homes are approved fosters for Cherokee County Humane Society. In addition, we list animals for other licensed rescues. Many of our rescued pets come from shelters, but we also take them in directly from
owners when we have room. This allows us to lessen the burden on the shelters. We also help independent rescuers place their rescued pets. Lastly, we also provide postings for owners needing assistance in rehoming their own pets.
Adopting a friend
If you find a pet you are interested in, please e-mail us. We will send you our adoption application. We do often require pre adoption home visits as well. We are not a shelter and we do not have a facility you can visit. If pre approved to adopt, we will set up an appointment for you to meet and adopt your new family member. A contract will then be completed and an adoption fee will apply to cover the pets foster care and veterinary expenses.
