Meet Tigger, a delightful bundle of joy who's always on the bounce, looking for his very own Hundred Acre Wood to call home. With fur as soft as the clouds in Pooh Bear's sky and a heart as big as Christopher Robin's imagination, Tigger is a vibrant soul seeking an adventure with a family as energetic and loving as he is. This playful pup adores exploring the great outdoors, whether it's chasing his own shadow, leaping gracefully like a Roo, or embarking on expeditions for the tastiest treats in the forest.
Tigger's ideal family is one that shares his zest for life and his insatiable curiosity. He dreams of days filled with fun, whether it's playing a game of fetch that reminds him of Pooh sticks on the bridge, or learning new tricks that would make even Owl tip his hat in respect. And after a day full of adventure, Tigger looks forward to snuggling up, perhaps dreaming of heffalumps and woozles, but most importantly, feeling the warmth and love of his very own family.
But what's a Tigger without his friends? Tigger is on the lookout for a canine companion who doesn't mind his bouncy nature, a true friend who can keep up with his spirited romps and share in his joyful jigs. Just like Pooh and Piglet, Tigger believes that life's adventures are best shared with a friend. So, if your home is filled with laughter, love, and a touch of whimsy, and you're looking for a loyal friend to share in every bright tomorrow, Tigger is ready to leap into your life with a joyful "T-I-double guh-er!"

More about this shelter
The Cabarrus County Animal Shelter is one of the core responsibilities of Cabarrus County Animal Control, a division of the Cabarrus County Sheriff's Office. The shelter is an open admission shelter, which means we do not turn away any animal in need. We are a public facility that provides safe temporary shelter for homeless animals while the staff searches for permanent homes for the animals through community adoption or transfers to Rescue Partners. The animal shelter also provides a variety of other services for the community. The animal shelter is NOT a pet boarding facility. While the shelter is open admission, we do require pre-scheduled appointments for all owner surrenders. Please see our hours of operation for details.
Staff at the Cabarrus County Animal Shelter is committed to placing safe and healthy animals in the community by searching for appropriate permanent homes for adoptable animals. We work with approved Rescue Partners locally and nationally to place animals with workable behavior concerns and treatable medical issues with groups with the resources to take on those specific cases. To determine if an animal is adoptable, shelter staff must rule out any underlying medical conditions and/or temperaments that present safety risks to the community. Euthanasia is a last resort. When necessary, euthanasia is carried out with respect to the animals by a Certified Euthanasia Technician following best-practice guidelines set by the NC Department of Agriculture. It is important to Cabarrus County that all animals at the shelter receive care and compassion.
