It is officially the holiday season! While it is a very joyous time for most, it is the most dangerous time of year for delivery drivers! If you are expecting a package from Amazon, FedEx, UPS, or USPS, please make sure your pets are put up to keep them and these Holiday Warriors safe!

Animal Control Agencies get inundated with dog bites this time of year with new visitors being in homes, and mail carriers delivering packages. Dogs, cats and ferrets are all legally required to be current on a rabies vaccine. If they bite someone, they are required to complete a 10-day quarantine!

If your pet is not current on their rabies vaccine, visit your local animal hospital, or you can call Lee County Animal Shelter to schedule to get your pet's 1-year rabies vaccine done for $10. It can be paid for by exact cash, check, or debit/credit card (+$2 service fee).

Happy Holidays from the LCAS staff and shelter pets!

LEE COUNTY, NC – November 6, 2023 – The Lee County Government (LCG) Health Department has reported two confirmed cases of feline panleukopenia at the Lee County animal shelter, which has caused Animal Services to suspend intake of any new felines at the shelter until November 16th, 2023.
Feline panleukopenia is a highly contagious gastrointestinal disease affecting cats that proves fatal in most cases. After consulting with the County veterinarian on how best to combat the disease, LCG Animal Services has begun implementing the necessary protocols and procedures of disinfecting the facility.
Rescue groups and individuals who have adopted felines from the shelter in the past two weeks have been contacted and notified of the feline’s possible exposure to the disease. Shelter staff are available to help answer any questions and provide information to anyone who has recently adopted a feline from LCG Animal Services.
During this time, the shelter will continue to accept and adopt canines from the facility, as there are no known risks to canines. There is also no risk to humans from the disease.

For more information, please contact LCG Animal Services at 919-776-7446.

Ixbee is so darn handsome and unique. If you are looking for that perfect mutt, one of a kind, no one else will confuse your dog with theirs- Ixbee is you guy! He has a partial blue eye, and is a very kind soul. He walks great on leash and with some TLC will make a great companion for just about anybody. He is on the larger side, around 70 lbs, but is young with lots of love left to give.

# 39881 "MANZANA"

Manzana came to us heartbreakingly because her family had to move and was forced to choose one pet by the landlord. She misses them dearly, and would love a new home with kids to make her feel like her old self again. She is shy at first, but warms up quickly with treats and affection. She is just unsure of what is going on around her in the shelter. Her coat is so soft, and she has the kindest eyes. Won't you consider helping her come back to life?

Call us today to come meet her!

We enjoyed doing some community outreach! Sun was shining and it was great to see everybody and every-paw! Lending Paws a Hand, Inc. did a wonderful job organizing this event. Very exciting to be part of such a positive and impactful event.

Also, congrats to the winner of our doggie doggie basket giveaway, Olivia! She guessed the closest number to the amount of dog bones in our jar.

*$10 RABIES FEE* #39596 "PETRA"
This lively gal came to us as a stray on March 16th, 2023. She has so much s***k and personality, you have to meet her for yourself. Although she's about 5 years old, she has no issue keeping up. Petra is medium sized at around 50 lbs and would absolutely love a running buddy, or if she could have her own fenced in yard for lots of play time. She knows some basic commands and is already microchipped as well. Call us to make your appointment to meet this beauty!

*$10 RABIES FEE* #39546 "TALULLA"

This adorable 'short stuff' came to us on March 1st, 2023 as a stray. She weighs in at a lovely medium sized 55 lbs, but stands below your knee. Talulla is past the puppy stage but still young, around 2 years old. She loves to be around you, and isn't very high energy. She has just the right amount of 'play' in her! She loves treats and listens fairly well. She already knows the commands "sit" and "catch". Watch below!

$10 RABIES FEE- #39553 FIONA

Fiona came to us after she was found wandering by herself. She is a gorgeous young gal at just 11-12 months old. She loves getting attention and shows it by wagging her tail, which in turn makes her whole body wag! She loves to get treats and would love for you to teach her commands. Through a partnership with rescue she has been spayed as well. She will be a great addition to your family, so give us a call to come meet her!
