Introducing our 2017 Charity!

Each year we hold a charity auction. This year’s charity is:

Saving Southern Kitties is a new South Carolina rescue devoted to saving cats and kittens from high kill and rural shelters, where euthanasia rates are extremely high. At Saving Southern Kitties, under the leadership of Susan Schreck, we are making a difference of the lives of cats who have no voice.

At Saving Southern Kitties, we focus our efforts on the cats and kittens which are not seen on the adoption floors at these shelters and are labeled ‘rescue only’.  Shelters do not have space to put every cat on the adoption floor and must decide which ones do not make the cut.  Usually it is the cats who aren’t super fancy, have a sniffle, or who may have been a stray for too long.  Oftentimes, they only have a few days to be rescued before they are euthanized.  We are their only chance at finding a forever family.  We spend the money needed to make them healthy and adoptable yet we aim to keep our adoption prices very reasonable!

Saving Southern Kitties is making a difference for these precious lives, one at a time! MEOW Y’ALL!
