Most people know that we’ve been providing spay and neuter assistance to Richland County pet owners for over 17 years through our voucher program. Last year, we decided to expand our support to our neighbors in County of Lexington, SC by offering a limited run of vouchers for their residents.

We took the leap, and were thrilled by the response. All of the vouchers were claimed much faster than we anticipated! More than 1,000 vouchers were distributed in just eight months. So we took another leap and committed to another round, this time doubling the quantity to 2,000. Again, they were gone in just four months. 🤯

The need was clear, so we added another 1,500 vouchers. Now, more than 4,500 vouchers later, the demand continues to grow, as does awareness of the program. It’s a good problem to have- Lexington County pet owners clearly value this resource and understand the importance of fixing their pets. We have been more than happy to provide assistance to those who need just a little extra help making that happen.

⭐️ But now, we’re asking for your help too. To sustain this program and keep it going, it’s critical that we increase support and funding so we can continue offering vouchers in Lexington County. Our municipal shelters deserve a fighting chance at getting ahead of the wave of overpopulation that’s making their jobs so challenging right now.

If you believe in making spay and neuter services affordable and accessible, we need your help! Please consider putting your money where your heart is and helping us keep this service available to Lexington County residents. We depend on you to be part of the solution. If you’re unhappy with shelter overcrowding and space-based euthanasia and wish you could play a role in fixing it- this is it. Help fund spay and neuter for your neighbors, no matter which side of the county line they live on.

We have kittens!
Quinny and Bo are approx 12-14 weeks old, have all vaccines, are neutered and are negative for FeLV/FIV.
Both are kid, cat and dog friendly.
Bo is a handsome mini panther that loves to play... And this boy has a motor!
Quinny is a unique smoky brown and cream tabby. Floofy ears and feet and his tail is so big, it should have its own ZIP code. He's a giant purr box. 🐈❤️

***Attention Lexington County Animal lovers & Pet Owners**❤️

Pawmetto Lifeline was created to serve Lexington & Richland Counties.
They have spay/neuter days for Saluda, Newberry, Kershaw and now Florence Counties!!
How about they stick to their misssion and s/n more animals from Richland/ Lexington Counties?
I know there are plenty of feral cats out there reproducing, even if PL thinks all the pets are done. ( Which they are not)
Richland County has the Humane Society, Lexington County has NOTHING! PL is it and they've gotten ridiculous.

**This is exactly why our Community Cat Program is failing. This is why there are kittens everywhere.

This is also why I no longer support Pawmetto Lifeline. They have no idea what their true mission is. They've completely lost their way.

This is why we need Low-No cost, County based spay/neuter for Lexington County Residents. We need to just take PL out of the equation, because they clearly don't give a crap about Lexington County.
I'm not alone in asking for this...

8 cats dropped off. 12 cats picked up, and out of those, only Three were males!! Nine females will never have more kittens!! They were all released at their home base.

Unloaded all the traps, all trap towels and covers are in the washer, traps have been hosed out. All cats were let out into the house and I'm almost done cleaning crates and scooping boxes.

Today I've got to get some mulch put in these beds. I've had it for 4 weeks and every time I start, something happens and I get pulled away. This weekend is it!

This is Smokey.
He needs a man that can get him up and moving. He likes men, other cats, small dogs and food. Lol He is a big boy at 17 pounds.
He's not a fan of women though, so if he needs to be handled, it needs to be a man he knows.
He will be 8 the 27th of this month. He's neutered, FeLV/FIV negative, and has one eye. I have his original vetting paperwork and his most recent, he is UTD on vaccines. He has been dewormed and is on monthly flea prevention. (I have dogs that go in and out) His teeth are clean and he has no medical issues.

He is STRICTLY inside only, and prefers a large, top entry litter box. He stands up when he pees, and this will avoid accidents.
He's a good boy, he just doesn't like me... Or any other women.
Please share, he needs a good home.
His adoption fee has been sponsored, so he's free to the right home.
He's in Lexington at Purry Paws Rescue.

Went out to catch the injured cat. The homeowner had been feeding and working with this guy for the past week. He got him confined in his shop, so catching him was easy. He ate some wet food off a spoon, and he liked it. I just made a trail into the trap, and I had him in 3 or 4 minutes. He's not feral, but he is hurt and cautious. I now have him in my shop with the a/c on, and he's got a towel in the bottom of the trap and a bowl with wet and dry food and water.
He's skin and bones, has old healed puncture wounds, he's filthy and in general poor condition. The photos are hard to look at, I even took a video. You simply can't appreciate how badly this cat wants to be helped.
He's going to Crossroads first thing Monday morning.
