My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meemaw spent her life deeply treasured by her previous owner, and that kind of love leaves a lasting imprint. She knows how to share a home, how to sit quietly beside her person, and how to offer steady companionship that feels comforting and true.

After her owner passed away, Meemaw was given a new opportunity — a chance to once again give her heart to someone special. Shelter life has been an adjustment with its new sights, sounds, and routines, but she’s navigating it in her own thoughtful way. Each day she grows a little braver, a little more curious, and a little more comfortable in this new chapter.

Meemaw is a lady who prefers to be admired before she’s adored. She enjoys attention from a respectful distance and is still building the confidence to fully lean into pets. There’s something incredibly special about earning the trust of a cat like her — watching her soften, seeing her eyes relax, knowing she’s choosing to feel safe with you.

She loves treats (they are absolutely her love language), enjoys observing the world from a cozy perch, and takes life at her own unhurried pace. She would thrive in a calm, peaceful home where patience is offered freely and quiet companionship is valued. Meemaw has lived with other cats in the past and may do well with a respectful feline friend.

Additional adoption info

We do our best to match the animal with the most suitable home possible. Sometimes adopters choose an animal that has needs beyond what they will be able to provide, and we'll recommend a different pet more suited to their home. We check landlord requirements, if any, and we check vet references. We may request a home visit for animals with special needs.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Our Adoption Center is open Tuesday-Friday, 11 to 4 PM, Saturday 9 AM to 3 PM. The public is welcome to visit during those hours. We do attend offsite special events and take some of our adoptable dogs. These are usually publicized via social media, www.facebook.com/sarges.

More about this rescue

Sarge’s animals are usually taken directly from the Haywood County Animal Control facility. They are all tested for heart worm or Feline Leukemia/FIV, given appropriate vaccinations and preventatives for heart worms and fleas, spayed/neutered and dogs are microchipped. They are socialized as time permits and many have been taught basic commands. We enjoy placing animals into loving and responsible homes, and we appreciate that our adopters have sought out rescue animals.
