GREAT reminder to get your pets microchipped! This family was reunited with their kitty after 8 years, and in a whole other state no less!!

A long story with a happy ending. A very large tabby cat was brought into the shelter. As part of our vetting process, we scanned him for a chip. We called the owners and they drove up from Florida to reclaim him. He had been missing for 8 years! There wasn't a dry eye in the building, all happy tears. Please think about getting your pet microchipped. It is quick procedure that can be done while they are spayed or neutered, and Frisco's family will tell you, it is priceless.

You a Daisy Cuz Ya Do!!! Sweet Daisy!

I run this girl about a mile or so a day on the compound... and the whole time she is constantly circling back despite my best efforts to keep up on the dirt bake!

📣 Calling All Pet Lovers in Rutherford County! 🐾

At Camp Patriot Animal Rescue and Sanctuary (CPARS), we’re on a mission to make our community a better place for pets and their people. One of the most impactful ways to do that? Spaying and neutering! 💙

Did you know that spaying or neutering your pet can: ✅ Prevent unwanted litters ✅ Reduce the number of strays in our community ✅ Improve your pet’s health and behavior

We believe that responsible pet ownership starts with YOU—and we’re here to help! 🐕🐈

💡 Stay tuned for announcements about upcoming low-cost spay/neuter clinics, educational events, and ways YOU can make a difference. Together, we can build a community where every pet is loved and cared for. ❤️

We have Puppies! In partnership with Rutherford County Humane Society, CPARS is fostering these babies.

Exciting news! We are now recognized as a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, which means that your donations are tax-deductible!

This also opens doors to apply for grants, and other opportunities to help the critters!

I'll also be creating a Chewy wishlist for the rescue that you can order from if you prefer to give food and supplies vs monetary donations.

GREAT opportunity here for those who need it!

UPDATE 11-24-24: The clinic next week is FULL! You may now register for the January, February, and March 2025 clinics. There will be a STRICT limit of 2 pets per household, and only residents of Rutherford County are eligible.
NOTE: 2025 clinics will be held at the Willowbrook offices located at 102 Resort Lane (just off Highway 64/74), Lake Lure, NC.

Meet Phoebe 🌺

Phoebe’s story began in an outdoor cat colony, but now she’s enjoying the indoor life and is ready to find her forever family! This sweet, playful, two year-old girl quickly bonded with her suite mate Sophie and has even become best buddies with her little dog friend, Jax.

With her sleek black-and-white coat and those curious eyes, Phoebe is full of charm. She’s gentle, sociable, and loves a good play session. If you’re looking for a kitty who gets along well with other pets and brings joy to everyone around her, Phoebe might just be your perfect match!

Phoebe would thrive in a home where she can share her playful spirit and her heartwarming affection. Is your home the one she’s been waiting for?

Meet Mama Sophie 🌸

This lovely lady came to us the Summer of 2023 at around two years of age, and in October of the same year, she took on the role of supermom, caring for EIGHT adorable kittens. We didn't know she was prego when we took her in, but we welcomed her and her growing belly with open arms, and what an amazing experience it was watching her give birth and be such a great mom!

Now that her mom duties are done, Sophie is ready to be pampered by a human of her very own.

With her striking black-and-white coat and those soulful eyes, Sophie is the perfect blend of playful and affectionate. She loves lounging in cozy spots (as you can see in her photo!), but she's equally thrilled with a bit of playtime. Sophie's gentle personality makes her a wonderful companion who would thrive in a calm and loving home.

If you're looking for a sweet, easy-going kitty who’s ready to settle down and soak up all your love, Sophie might just be the one! Message us if you're interested!

Next to the loss of life... the loss of the Flowering Bridge may well be one of the bigger tragedies of Hurricane Helena.

The Rainbow Bridge of Lake Lure, a memorial dedicated to dogs and other pets that have passed away, is no more as it was washed away during Hurricane Helene’s march across western North Carolina.

Bear has a very special place in the hearts of everyone here at CPARS and at PAWS of Rutherford County, NC! He's been in our care for a couple years now, and it is so amazing to know he will have his very own human all to himself!
