Pets For Adoption
We have received numerous requests on this page requesting that we take pets that have been found. We are presently as overrun with pets as anyone else and are unable to accept any at this time.
WE DO NOT ACCEPT REQUESTS TO PLACE PETS AT OUR SHELTER ON THIS WEBSITE. PLEASE CALL 270-877-6064 FOR SPACE AVAILABILITY.
We will be working closely with Jerry Foley at Animal Control in the coming months to overcome the horror tale that the Animal Control facility, which has a very active pet adoption and spay/neuter program, is a “Death Sentence” for homeless pets.
We have had an excellent working relationship with Animal Control over the past 20 years, and whoever is passing along this information that they–or we–are deserving of that or any other derogatory title should be ashamed. It is irresponsible pet owners and ignorance on the importance of spaying and neutering pets that we battle on an ongoing basis, and these rumors pass along from those who have been called on it. More resources for placing abandoned or orphaned pets will be added to Spay/Neuter and Placement Resources. I also want to take this time to reiterate that we cannot accept homeless pets from out of state! Consult your local agencies for placement, and quit throwing mud at Animal Control.
Hello,
I have been volunteering at Ft Knox stray facility to get their dogs placed before they are euthanized here. Is there a possibility of pulling some of them out into your shelter. I would hbe happy to help support them
Thanks,
Russ
Sorry, Russ–we are presently sitting at 14 dogs in 8 kennels at the moment. Check with the Ft. Knox facility and be sure they are updating their Petfinder website and help them promote their pets for adoption. In these tough times, it’s just all we can do.
Hi,
I live in Cincinnati, my Uncle lived in Louisville and just passed away 2 weeks ago. He left behind a small female cat I estimate to be 3-5 yrs old.
She was left outside in the yard although she stayed indoors with him most of the time. All 3 of his children live out of town as well and none of us know anyone in Louisville.
Uncle Paul was just 4 days short of turning 90 yrs old and he dearly loved his cat “Tiny” I am in desperate need to find a no kill shelter to see his cat rescued and taken care of.
I’m sure the cat is afraid and I am quite worried that she is outside.
I am making a trip to Louisville this Thursday in an attempt to capture the cat and need somewhere to take her.Can you offer us any help.
Thank you
Furia

Hi,
I have a 10 month old mini schnauzer. I recently have started a new job and am not able to give him time time or attention that he needs. I don’t want to take him to the animal control center, so I was wondering how I might be able to get him into your facility.
I have seven orphan kittens.The mom was found on 31w.I have not a clue what to do with them.I have no clue who owns the mom.help
This was an urgent and legit request, which has been answered privately via email.
I’m in a great need of help. I’ve been caring for a few cats for about 7 years. I’ve never brought a cat to my house but people keep dropping them off. I have tried to keep them fixed and healthy but I’m in way over my head. I have about 40+ cats that are outside and I need to move. I can’t leave them. I’m all they have but I can’t afford it anymore. I’m spending $600-$700a month just on food and I’m only a waitress so I don’t make alot of money. I’m also in treatment for opiate addiction which runs $800 a month. I live in huntington,WV and I’ve reached out to little victories a couple of times and they won’t even reply. Please help me and these innocent souls.
Sincerely,
Name Edited
