☔️ It's raining cats & dogs! No literally, these just showed up in the rain 🥺

They're safe and dry now 💛 but these 5 little friends put us at 🚨over 500 animals🚨 in the shelter's care currently 🫨

We aren't complaining, these animals needed us and we want to help as many as we can.

But! We're burning through supplies like wildfire 🔥

Most needed items:
- Purina Dog Chow (green or black bag)
- Wet dog (or puppy!) food, any brand
- Puppy pads
- Dawn dish soap

Always needed:
- Purina Cat, Kitten, and Puppy Chow
- Paper Towels
- Kitty litter, any brand
- Linens of any kind, used are great!
- Pet toys, used (some call that pre-loved 🥰) are great!

If you have pet food that your pet didn't want, open or not, we do accept it! We use any non-purina food as part of our pet food pantry 😊

Donating just one item makes a difference to us & to the animals calling the shelter home. We are grateful for any help to make life better for them ❤️🐾

What should we name these cutie pies?! 🥹

Our dogs need a little help from their friends - dog food and puppy pads are desperately needed!

We have 187 dogs/puppies in our shelter right now, and another 68 in foster care 😅 that's a LOT of mouths to feed and clean!

We really need:
- Purina Dog Chow (green back or black bag!)
- Puppy pads, any size
- Treats, any kind
- Toys (used are totally fine!)

If you have dog food other than Purina, we will gladly accept it and use it for our pet food pantry 🫶

Ways to donate supplies:
- Amazon wishlist (in comments/linktree in bio)
- Chewy (fast shipping!)
- Green's Feed & Seed (shop local + they will deliver to us!)
- Sam's Club (has very good pricing)

Or really, however you prefer! Those are just the most common. Our address is 1248 Greenbrier Street, Charleston, WV 25311 🥰

Any and all help is very, very appreciated. If each person donated just one thing, we'd be swimming in supplies! Your donations help keep shelter dogs happier and healthier 💛 Thank you!

The dogs have their bags packed for a vacation! 🤩🥳🏖☀️

Sadly, KCHA is not going to the beach (could we work that into next year's budget? A girl can dream 😂)

BUT! A stay-cation for a shelter dog is just what the dog-tor ordered! 🥰

Fostering, even overnight, helps give a dog a chance to decompress, relax, and remember what life is like outside of the shelter ❤️ and studies have shown that their stress levels do not immediately spike back up when they return - so you don't need to feel guilty when they come back!

It's the same as when we take a quick vacay. You come back refreshed, relaxed, and ready 😎

Keep them for a night (slumber pawty!), keep them for a weekend - whatever works for your schedule, works for us! And the dog's schedules are clear too - we checked 😉

Fostering is free, we provide the supplies you need. You just need to focus on giving them a fun (and safe!) vacation ❤️

If you have a specific idea, other pets at home, etc - just let us know, and we can try to match you up to the best fit 🙂

My only request - take lots of pictures! 📸

Sending out an SOS 💥 The KCHA inn is beyond FULL for dogs!

Today we have a cruelty case of 9 adult dogs, another dog hit by a car, and another dog who needs to return to us today too 💔

We're doing what we can to combine any friendly dogs together, rearranging, etc.

But what would help most? Them going into foster homes or getting adopted! 😍

Our goal is for 20 dogs and 10 puppies to either get fostered or adopted today!

We have our adoption special going on through Sunday - adult dogs are just 20 to adopt right now! And puppies are just 50!

We're open 12-6 today. Please come help a dog out! 🥺🙏

🚨 This is an SOS, please share 🚨

We are almost completely out of blankets 🥲

We’ve got tiny kittens, senior dogs, playful puppies, and fearful cats that all deserve the comfort of a warm, snuggly blanket during their stay with us 🥺

If you’re doing your spring cleaning, please consider us! If you’re at the thrift store and see blankets for a low price, please think of us! If you want an excuse to get that new comforter, please think of us when getting rid of your old one.

We’re big fans of gently used linens (think blankets, towels, and sheets). Donations can be dropped off during business hours at 1248 Greenbrier St Charleston WV 25311 ✨

Thank you for your support- we couldn’t do what we do, without you! ❤️
