Pita & Pecan's Animal Refuge

Pita & Pecan’s Animal Refuge is a veteran owned and operated 501(c)3 nonprofit animal rescue and sanctuary in Hayden, Alabama. We operate in and around Blount County, Alabama and surrounding areas. We accept cats, dogs, birds, and small farm animals - really anything we can properly house because we love them all! Pita & Pecan’s was founded and continues to be operated by Kimberly Thrasher (a disabled veteran) and Allye Combs (a vet tech). Our dream goal is to have a fully functional, free roam (when allowed) facility to house any animal we can help. We rescue, evaluate, treat and house any animal we can house that needs us in our local area. All new intakes are placed on a quarantine and evaluation period. Once each animal has received its’ required age appropriate vaccinations, has been spay/neutered, receives a good general health check and receives their rabies vaccine and certificate; we adopt them both locally and north of Alabama in order to provide them with the best possible furever home. We do this because our animals have always helped us and this is our opportunity to return the favor! However, we can do this without YOU! Our volunteers, PPAR families who have already adopted from us, and our supporters through social media, events, and word of mouth are the best ever. We’re very grateful for ALL of you!
