Will you accept Rupert's rose? 🥺🌹

Rupert was a really shy guy when he first came in - but he's quickly fallen in love with the fun he can have playing with other dogs!

He's a special fella who's been so patient in finding a home. He knew he had some things to work on first (like trusting humans enough to pet him) but he's really blossomed into a good boy 🥺

Come meet our bachelors and bachelorettes!! Open 12-6!

Once a paw a time…. 👑

KCHA’s very own cattery housed a queen. A queen that could dance, jive, and have the time of her life. Ooh, see that girl, perhaps even watch that scene. Digging the dancing queen 💃🪩

It’s (almost) Friday & the lights are low, Blossom is looking out for a place to go- where they give the right cat treats, to get in a cat swing, and she can look for a king. Anybody could be that guy, because the day is young and the music’s high 🤩

Come have the time of your life & adopt a shelter pet in need 🐾

This is Sinatra 🎶

I PROMISE this is a meow and not a hiss 😂

This boy has so much soul, you can just tell ❤️

Sinatra’s owner recently passed away & he’s been very upset without her. He’s very stressed and shut down 🥺 This is why we moved him to our Petco Penthouse!

Stop by Southridge Petco to meet Sinatra and other available kitties 🥰

They’ve been spayed/neutered, vaccinated, flea treated, dewormed, microchipped- and once adopted- you get a shopping spree at Petco! 🛍️

We’re open 12-6 at KCHA if you want to stop by! 🫶🐾

The infamous Kanawha City dog has been CAUGHT thanks to Humane Officer Johnson of Charleston, WV Police Department!

Once he arrived, we worked with H.O. Johnson to safely move the trap to the kennels where he could get settled in.

After coaxing him out, his little tail started wagging 🥹 he quickly curled up in our staff's laps and started giving kisses!!

Great job getting this sweet boy to safety, K. Johnson ❤️ and welcome to the KCHA pack, little fella!

Found: South Charleston area!

This little guy waltzed into a nice lady's house yesterday and made himself comfortable 😅 she walked him around the neighborhood and no one recognized him.

He has a microchip but the database isn't pulling any information for the chip 🥺

We want to get him back home to his family. He's soooo sweet but he's really afraid at the shelter 🥺

If this is your dog, please come up to the shelter! We're here until 5 ❤️
