Areas County Roads Rescue serves

We are a 501c3 non-profit rescue who formed to rescue the stray animals of Cherokee County Texas where there is no animal control. We also rescue from shelters in East Texas, who rely on rescues to be no kill or if they are high kill. We have adopted out all the way to Nova Scotia, Canada and do not have restrictions on where adopters live as long as it is in the best interest of the animal.

County Roads Rescue's adoption process

1.

Submit Application

Once application is submitted we will schedule a time for step 2.

2.

Meet the Pet

You’re welcome to schedule a meet and greet at our facility.

3.

Sign Adoption Contract

If all goes well with the meet an greet, you have the adoption to foster to adopt or go ahead and sign the contract and pay the fee.

Additional adoption info

Our adoption fees are between $50-$150 for cats and dogs depending on their age and how much vetting they have had (shots are given based on age, all are spayed or neutered after 6 months of age). If they have not been spayed/neutered or received a rabies vaccine due to age, you are required to sign a time sensitive contract stating the procedures will be done. We do not allow animals to be strictly outside animals, cats cannot be declawed, if you are renting we require a letter from your landlord stating he/she is aware of the new pet before the adoption can be final. Other animals in the home must be up to date on vaccines and altered.

About County Roads Rescue

My name is Dava and I am the founder of this organization. I originally was a volunteer at the Jacksonville Animal Shelter in Jacksonville, Texas. They were never able to help with the many abandoned and neglected dogs and cats in the county since they were only contracted with the city. So I stepped in to help. We rescue anywhere between 10-20 animals in Cherokee County every month. There are many more in need of help still and the need for a rescue in this area was large.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.

What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?

When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.

So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
