Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet miss Charity - certifiably our chattiest cathy in the adoption room! Charity is fairly low-key, preferring a low-key home as well where she can have her own space and litter box! She's a sweet lady; gentle in most ways, evening tolerating being picked up! She could likely live with pups & kiddos, but perhaps only one or two other *MALE* cats. She doesn't want Galentines in her life...She'd probably be just fine as the only feline shadow in the home, too!
Come visit Charity in our Cat Adoption Room! You'll know where to look - just follow the "meo-o-o-o-ows!"
Take advantage of 🖤✨𝑩𝑳𝑨𝑪𝑲 𝑪𝑨𝑻 𝑭𝑹𝑰𝑫𝑨𝒀𝑺 ✨🖤
Every Friday, all of our adoptable Black Cats (1 year old+) are eligible for a REDUCED ADOPTION FEE of $50 (typically $70). 𝐹𝑒𝑒𝑠 𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑙𝑢𝑑𝑒 𝑠𝑝𝑎𝑦/𝑛𝑒𝑢𝑡𝑒𝑟, 𝑚𝑖𝑐𝑟𝑜𝑐ℎ𝑖𝑝, 𝑓𝑙𝑒𝑎/𝑡𝑖𝑐𝑘 𝑝𝑟𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 & 𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑣𝑎𝑐𝑐𝑖𝑛𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑠!

Out of all types of cats, black cats have the lowest adoption rate of only 10%?! Let's change that!

We are a Municipal pound for Augusta County, Staunton, and Waynesboro so we take in all strays, abandoned animals, and owner surrenders. We have 40 dog runs and about 85 cat cages.

We offer help to our community through education and assistance. With the help of other organizations we are able to spay/neuter animals in our community that the owners could otherwise not afford. With the help of our community we are on a mission to save every adoptable animal in our area.
