A small, family-friendly, no-kill animal shelter located in Lindenwold, NJ. Our shelter is 100% funded by donations.
Tues-Fri 1pm-6pm
Sat-Sun 1pm-5pm
Closed Monday Animal Adoption Center was founded by Sid Kreitzberg in 1990. Sid is Chairman Emeritus of our board of trustees, and still actively involved with the shelter. In 1985 Sid and a group of 43 volunteers were traveling daily into Camden, NJ to feed sick and starving dogs and cats. At the time Camden was overflowing with stray and abandoned animals, and Si
d and his friends set up feeding stations throughout the city to meet the need. His group eventually formed the non-profit Friends of Camden Animal Shelter (FOCAS). FOCAS learned that the SPCA in Lindenwold, NJ was planning to sell their shelter building on Berlin Rd. Camden County purchased the facility and turned it over to FOCAS for one dollar. FOCAS agreed to continue to rescue animals from Camden County communities, and they reincorporated as the Animal Adoption Center (AAC) in 1991. The first board of trustees designated the shelter as a no-kill facility, and it remains so to this day. Their groundbreaking decision predated the public birth of the modern no-kill movement in San Francisco by three years, and was unheard of in the field of animal control at the time. AAC expanded throughout the 1990’s, improving both the property and infrastructure. The facility can comfortably house 32 cats and 41 dogs, and has found homes for more than 16,000 animals since 1990.

Our sweet girl Cranberry needs a hero!🐶🩷 A loving foster home where she can be the only pet, relax & get a break from the shelter. She was brought to the vet due to limping. During the visit, they did radiographs and bloodwork. She was diagnosed with Osteoarthritis which is a degenerative joint disease and a Cranial Cruciate Ligament rupture. This would require surgery in the near future. Plans to set surgery up will be made. In the meantime, we will restrict activity to short leash walks and administer pain meds for any pain/discomfort.🐶❤💔 Please share so we can get this girl into a home where she can feel more comfortable, she is struggling at the shelter & needs a place to heal. We supply everything you need!🩷❤️

📣Big News!📣 It is with optimism for the future of animals across the tri-state area that we are excited to announce the Animal Adoption Center has entered into an affiliation agreement with the Brandywine Valley SPCA. The partnership expands BVSPCA's life-saving footprint into New Jersey, becoming the only Animal Welfare organization in the country to operate in three states.
We are so excited to start this new partnership with support from longtime animal welfare advocates and BVSPCA supporters Gerret and Tatiana Copeland, but we’ll need your help to make all of this possible. We invite you to join us on this lifesaving mission that will infuse more resources and services to the animals in our care and the pet community we serve.
