Asheville Humane Society is about hope, not heartache. As Buncombe County’s critical safety net since 1984, we are always here to save and protect every animal. We have mastered the art of saving lives within our walls and now we are going even further, helping our community’s pets and their people thrive together.

We’ve told a few stories about our shoebox kittens, and today, we’re happy to wrap things up with a truly perfect ending.

To recap, three 3-week-old kittens were left at our doorstep in a shoebox during Helene. At such a young age they required intensive care from our medical and foster teams, including around the clock bottle feeding, temperature regulation, and medication administration. In time, they were ready for foster care.

These kittens couldn’t have been luckier to end up with Laurie, one of our most experienced neonatal kitten fosters. Ugg, Serra, and Timberland were her 77th, 78th, and 79th foster kittens respectively. Laurie has taken on some tough cases that require significant work, but takes little credit, claiming she “loves them back to health.”

What few people know is that while Laurie was giving so much of herself for our three shoebox kittens, she was also losing a piece of herself too. Flower was one of Laurie’s only foster fails, and a lifeline for Laurie. After living with terminal illness for some time, Flower passed, and Laurie was devastated. She explained that she walked around crying for weeks.

But she wasn’t alone.

Little Timberland would crawl onto her lap whenever she sat down and would cling to her leg when she stood, insisting she carry him - always purring as if trying to transfer comfort itself. Laurie said that while the other two kittens were happily playing, Timberland would snuggle up to her, just content to be together.

The time came to return the kittens back to the Adoptions Center. As Laurie was handing the carrier back to the team, it hit her. She couldn’t do it. “I told Laura, I can’t do this. It’s not the right thing to do and I can’t let him go.”

So she didn’t.

We are elated to report that Ugg and Serra both found home - happy, healthy, and loved. Timberland? He is home too - right with Laurie. Where he was meant to be.

So please consider making a donation today - with gratitude for fosters like Laurie, in honor of companions like Flower, in celebration of kittens like Ugg, Serra, and Timberland finding home…forever.

Feel Good Friday Time!

Tabasco and Cry Baby were surrendered together at a fire station. Everyone, firefighters included, knew right away that they were an inseparable duo. The pair lasted only a week or two in our care before they squirmed their way together into their next home.

Only a few short months later, Cry Baby and Tabasco were surrendered to Henderson County. Knowing we loved them and wanted to continue being a part of their story, Henderson County helped transport the two back to AHS, safe and sound.

But Henderson County had made a tough discovery: Cry Baby was positive for Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) and heartworms. Managing FIV is a life-long process. Heartworms? Well they’re uncommon but certainly possible. They’re more dangerous and harder to treat. (Quick PSA: preventatives save lives) But our medical and animal care teams rose to the occasion. Cry Baby remains in exceedingly capable and compassionate hands.

Tabasco and Cry Baby were moved to our “featured cats” window, where they were visible to the general public, and their personalities sharted to shine. They were entirely different and one and the same. Cry Baby preferred to shy away from attention while Tabasco was so friendly, fun, and playful that the team installed a toy wand on the people-side of the window, so friendly folks visiting the shelter could play with him.

Adopting out a bonded pair can sometimes be tricky. Adopting out a bonded pair with medical concerns is VERY tricky.

In walks an incredibly kind man. He tells our adoptions counselors that he is looking for a singular, friendly cat as a birthday gift to himself - and what a great gift that would be! But the cat distribution system doesn’t work that way. As he sat waiting, he watched our esteemed duo through the window, and it was over.

Well. Today is his birthday. We are proud to say that Cry Baby and Tabasco have finally found home with someone who embraces them as a mighty duo and as individual cats, as having unique challenges and quirks. They are loved beyond measure, and this time, we think it’s forever.

Thank you.

Thank you for your donations.
Thank you for your support.
Thank you for your advocacy.
Thank you for advancing our mission to better the lives of people, animals, and community.

We are ELATED to say that we exceeded our Giving Tuesday goal. Thanks to your generosity we will continue to provide the best care we can to the animals in our community and the people who love them.

We appreciate you more than you know - the animals certainly feel the same.

And pinky promise we won't ask you for donations for like...maybe almost a week.

We’re doing a lot of long form today, so we’re gonna keep this one quick. Here’s our elevator pitch on why you might consider donating to Asheville Humane this Giving Tuesday:

“Asheville Humane Society is Buncombe County’s only open-intake shelter - meaning, when an animal needs our help, we make it happen. But our mission goes beyond sheltering animals. Our goal is to keep families together - happy, healthy, and fed. That’s why much of our work takes place in the community - providing vaccine/wellness clinics, spay/neuter services, food distribution, behavioral counseling, and more.

We can talk about our programs until we're blue in the face, but ultimately, our impact is calculated in an intangible measure - and we're proud of our score."

Your donations change lives. Your donations save lives. Your donations mean more than you know.

All donations are matched today up to $50,000 dollars! Please consider making a donation today at our website (tinyurl.com/AshevilleHumaneDonate) or shooting us a Venmo at .

100,000 lbs.

Since Helene hit, Asheville Humane staff and volunteers have distributed over 100,000 pounds of pet food to families in need. To put that into perspective, that’s double what we typically distribute in a year…in just two months.

But what does that look like on a human level?

Stories. A lot of stories. Stories of people going above and beyond to support their community. Here’s a few stories from just one of our distribution centers:

“One woman came in to pick up food to send up a (literal) cliff to her brother’s house. A mudslide had eroded the land around his house within mere inches of his front porch. Because getting out was nearly impossible, they were sending care in.

Another incredibly kind woman came in and said she was hoping to help a family with special needs children. Caring for both the kids and the animals was tough during the storm, so she was helping carry some of the weight. She gave me the best hug I’ve ever had.

Another woman had lost everything in the flood. Her entire house was gone and her barn had washed away. She was hoping to get emergency supplies for her two large dogs. We loaded her up with food, crates, beds, treats, everything we had. She asked about the plant on the desk. I told her it was plastic because I can’t keep anything alive. She said she didn’t care. She has lost all of her plants. She missed them. What the heck. We threw that in too.”

Your donations tell a story, crack a smile, fill a belly, facilitate some of the best hugs in the world.

Your donations matter. Today, they mean twice as much. Donations today are being matched by a generous donor up to $50,000. So please donate at our website (tinyurl.com/AshevilleHumaneDonate) or shoot us a Venmo .

The animals and the people who love them thank you.

Mister was brought to AHS as a stray and, as I’m sure you guessed, he did NOT look good. His emaciation and muscle wasting were only exacerbated by his rotting teeth, making it nearly impossible for him to get the nutrition he so desperately needed.

Thanks to donors like you and a generous Lily Grace Grant, Mister had all his teeth pulled, received extensive medical care, and embarked on a gummy adventure to recovery.

But medical care alone does not a whole kitty make. Enter Animal Care.

Our Animal Care staff is extraordinary in so many ways, but the level of care and compassion they extend to every animal under our roof is awe inspiring. Heather, one of our animal care staff members, fell in love with what she described as “his silly, charming personality.” She decided to go the extra mile and throw her hat into the ring as a foster for Mister.

While in her care, Mister was found to be anemic. Unfortunately, his anemia was deemed to be non-regenerative, meaning his red blood cells were unable to rebuild themselves. Our medical team determined that Mister’s life expectancy was uncertain.

Heather and her partner adopted Mister - knowing full well that it was uncertain, knowing full well they could lose him at any moment, knowing full well…that he would be happy, cared for, and know love until his last day.

I don’t know about you, but that’s what love looks like to me.

As Heather put it, without donors, Mister “would have never had a chance.” And almost a year later, he’s still using that chance. Please consider making a donation today, Giving Tuesday! Thanks to a generous donor, your gifts go twice as far (matched up to $50,000!) to help animals like Mister and the people who love them.

If you need extra convincing, imagine a toothless cat trying to say “thankssssss.”

When I asked our staff what stories I should tell on Giving Tuesday “parvo puppies” popped up over and over and over. As a relatively new employee, I didn’t know what that meant. But oh wow, is it a powerful one.

One of our medical fosters has cared for 40 puppies suffering from parvo in just 4 years. To put that in perspective - parvovirus is a horrible, highly contagious and often deadly disease. Pups with parvo immense amounts of care including syringe feeding, administering fluids, injectable and oral medications multiple times a day, and….well, a lot of cleanup. Some puppies take upwards of 6 weeks to recover. And this foster cared for puppy after puppy, saving life after life - completely unassuming, fully compassionate.

I asked her “What is it like watching these puppies?” She replied “watching them go from barely being able to lift their head to becoming a puppy again…it’s amazing.” To which a nearby medical assistant chimed in “When they start ripping up their toys it's the best. Destruction is a good sign.” The foster laughed.

She has cared for these animals, with unbelievable kindness, it’s apparent in the way she talks about them. She can tell you about all of them, their quirks, their unique stories. She’s never kept one, but she’s cared for each as if she already had.

I asked, in disbelief of this incredible story, “do you ever look back and feel proud of yourself, of what you’ve done for these puppies?”

She said “no…I’m proud of them.”

There are just moments left in Giving Tuesday, and I can’t think of a way to follow up that story with an ask other than to say - your donations matter. So much. Your donations go to fosters like these. Your donations help write these stories.

Today your donation is matched up to $50,0000 so please make a donation at our website (tinyurl.com/ashevillehumanedonate) or shoot us a Venmo before time runs out.

Dallia came to us as one of nine animals brought to us through Animal Control when their owner was rendered unable to provide care.

Dallia was scared, so scared, of people. The phrase often used to describe her was “shut down.” She refused to eat or leave her bed.

Our Behavior Team is known for positive, intentional, effective training. Dallia received a special sort of treatment—working to know and feel kindness, safety, love, empathy, and trust. She was fed by hand, and after about a week she began to eat full portions.

Patience was the guiding force behind Dallia’s progression. Slowly, with great understanding, Dallia’s wall started coming down. One month into her training, Dallia mustered the courage to go out into the yards and play with her siblings. She lit up. She was the Dallia as she should have always been, as she was meant to be.

Her training continued and after another month and a half Dallia was adopted by a family that has exercised more patience and understanding than we could ask for. She has continued coming out of her shell and loves her family more than anything…people and all.

Dallia’s story is a powerful one. We’re so grateful for our team that writes happy endings like her’s every day. But we can’t do it without you. Your donations make our work possible. This Giving Tuesday, donations are matched up to $50,000—making your contribution go twice as far.

“I took them here because I love them.”

“I lost my job after Helene, and I had to decide to feed myself or take care of my cat. Now I don’t have to make that call. Thank you.”

“We inherited these dogs when someone we love died during Helene. They need care.”

“This is the first clinic I could find that was open. It’s such a huge relief.”

"This is the best thing that has happened to us since the hurricane. We really needed this. Thank you."

These are some of the moments I got to witness while snapping photos at our wellness clinics. Since October, we have provided urgent care exams, vaccines, testing, and preventatives to over 950 animals at low or no cost.

But the faces are what really stuck with me. The faces of shock and relief when a worried dog mom was told her visit had been covered, the smile of the century on a man who was moving mountains to care for his pet being told he was good to go, the smiles of someone reunited with their puppy after receiving core vaccines. Little moments of joy in an impossible situation.

Please consider funding these moments (and yeah, really good medical care…) by donating what you can this Giving Tuesday. You can visit our website (tinyurl.com/AshevilleHumaneDonate) or shoot us a Venmo .

As always, the animals and their people thank you.

Dare the doodle came to us with fur matted so badly that he couldn’t stand or walk on his own. He was wheeled through intake and into the exam room on a cart. As you likely know, mats can cause infections and a myriad of other health issues, and Dare was experiencing, well - most of them.

Caring for this guy took some next level shearing and an exceptional vet—both of which we are so lucky to have! Rumor has it that the mats were so widespread and so dense, that shaving sweet Dare took over three hours. Our vets provided next level care, including funding a complicated eye surgery to prevent erosion and protect eyesight.

Dare had a harder time finding the right forever as a 12-year-old senior with arthritis, but our adoptions counselors are one of a kind and Dare (now Orlando) is living large with a family who loves him with everything they have.

Some of the cases that come through our doors are hard. But there’s nothing like watching an animals’ journey to finding their forever, people who love them endlessly, and yeah…snacks in a warm bed,

YOU make that happen. Your donations pay for medical care, for grooming, for food, for sheltering, for the counselors that ensure forever is the right fit. This Giving Tuesday, a generous donor is matching all donations up to $50,000 so PLEASE chip in what you can today for dogs like Dare on our website (tinyurl.com/AshevilleHumaneDonate) or by shooting a Venmo to .

Animals like Dare thank you. The families who love animals like Dare thank you. We thank you.

Helene hit.

Our staff worked around the clock, sleeping in the Adoptions Center, to provide care for almost 200 animals without water. We spot cleaned kennels, while trying to conserve resources given great uncertainty on when water would return.

We knew we had to get them out.

In a massive effort, our staff was all hands on deck, providing care for animals, loading them into crates, vans, and cars, and onto the tarmac at the Asheville Airport.

Bissell Pet Foundation flew in with thousands of pounds of supplies. For the first time I knew hope had a tangible feeling.

We loaded the animals onto the planes and waved goodbye to beings we had loved like our own for months.

We gave high fives, we laughed, we cried…more than we’re willing to admit. They were safe.

We will not forget the moment we lived in during Helene. We will not forget the sense of togetherness, of camaraderie, of a shared pride in our community, of compassion for those seeking help. Our priority lies in providing intentional care to animals and the people who love them.

We hope you’ll join us.

This Giving Tuesday, one of the most important fundraising days of the year, we hope you’ll chip in, whatever you can, to help us fulfill that promise. A generous donor is matching all gifts up to $50,000, so today your gift makes twice the impact.

You can donate at our website (tinyurl.com/AshevilleHumaneDonate) or using Venmo .

As always, the animals thank you.

In the wake of Helene, three 3-week-old kittens were placed at our door in a shoe box. Not at all too soon, our team cleverly named them Timberland, Ugg, and Serra. Now, three weeks old is far too young to be apart from mom, and the teeny tiny kittens required immense amounts of care.

In addition to providing bottle feeding around the clock, I watched, first hand, one of our brilliant medical team members microwaving bottled water to the perfect temperature to give temperature-sensitive kittens a flea bath and comb.

Dried, clean, on-the-mend, and ready to bust out of the shelter, Timberland, Ugg, and Serra went off to an experienced neonate foster, who welcomed them as her 77th, 78th, and 79th foster kittens. We’re happy to report that, thanks to you, the little shoe kittens are thriving.

We simply could not provide this care without your help. Since Helene, 56 kittens have come into our care. 56. And that number is climbing. Each kitten has come with a unique story, with unique needs, with hope for forever. Donors like you fulfill those hopes.

So please consider chipping in for the kittens this Giving Tuesday. Your donation is matched (up to $50,000) today—making it go twice as far. That’s an opportunity you do not want to miss!

We thank you, but more importantly: teeny tiny kittens everywhere thank you.

On September 27, Little Quinlan watched television coverage about Hurricane with her mom. At only 5 years old, Quinlan knew she wanted to help, telling her mother “I want to help the cats and dogs.” She went straight to work, with big aspirations and an unrivaled entrepreneurial spirit, making friendship bracelets to sell in support of our animals.

Well, business took off, and Quinlan was raking in orders left and right. She sold out a featured booth at the “Music in the Mountains” Benefit Concert. With all her efforts, and in just one month, Little Quinlan raised over $2,300 for Asheville Humane Society—enough to feed 12,880 dogs in need, perform 46 neuters, or conduct almost 5 major surgeries.

She did this at 5. Years. Old.

The thoughtfulness, the compassion, the eagerness of children to help others is unmatched. Donors like Quinlan matter far beyond their monetary donations—they provide a sense of hope, a sense of purpose, a sense of inspiration that disgruntled old folks like us sometimes need to reconnect with why we do what we do.

When Quinlan got HER thank you note, she pointed to the pig on the card and asked her mom “did I save the piggie?” Yes, Quinlan. You sure did.

So I’m asking. Please help Quinlan help her beloved animals. On Giving Tuesday, your donation is matched up to $50,000 and goes twice the distance to support the animals in our care. One spay is two spays. 100 meals are 200 meals. Today is your chance to make a difference.

Donate at our website (tinyurl.com/AshevilleHumaneDonate) or by shooting us a Venmo !

We thank you. The animals thank you. Little Quinlan thanks you.

Oh! And 10 lucky donors will be selected to receive a custom Quinlan bracelet! Email your donation receipt to [email protected] to enter!

Samantha, a lumbering senior bulldog, came into our care as a stray. A blob of rolls and slobber, the team knew she was something special.

In the interest of not being too graphic, we’ll leave it at this—Samantha’s condition was deeply concerning. She was suspected of having pyometra, a severe uterine infection, and she was sent immediately to MedVet for stabilization.

The next day, it became apparent that Samantha required emergency surgery just to give her a chance at survival. Dr. Yale scrubbed up without hesitation and performed the surgery that saved her life.

Thanks to the quick work of our medical team and donors like you, Samantha got another shot. Samantha is now home—happy, healthy, and probably snoozin’ with the best of them.

I think of our medical team, of Dr. Yale, of Samantha’s adopters—all of whom had a powerful role in saving her life. You did too. An emergency spay like the one Samantha received is not cheap. Donors like you may not scrub up, but you provide the scalpel in hand. You may not make the incisions or stitches, but you ensure the most qualified, compassionate vets are the ones that do.

I cannot stress this enough. Your donations matter. More than you know.

But I’ll tell you what, Samantha knows—well. She thanks you for it.

Donations this Giving Tuesday are being MATCHED up to $50,000 by an incredibly generous donor, so your contribution goes twice as far. Please consider making a donation today to give animals like Samantha a chance at the life they deserve. Donate at our website (tinyurl.com/AshevilleHumaneDonate) or using Venmo .

Prior to Helene, Caroline came to work flanked by her senior dog Toby. In the midst of the hurricane, Toby became sick, and Caroline drove for hours across state lines trying to find emergency care for her sweet dog. After hours of searching, Toby passed.

Losing something you love that deeply is unbearable—especially a soul dog. And while nothing replaces that piece of your heart quite the same, the universe has a funny way of sending the right amount of love, in the right package, at the right time.

It did.

Enter Little Duckie. His little fluffer ears bounced as he trotted through the offices and he quickly became attached to Caroline. Caroline felt ready to find a new companion and agreed to foster the sweet pup, hoping that he might be the right fit.

He was.

Little Duckie is now “Theo” and has officially become the newest (and cutest) member of our team. The joy he brings Caroline feels like a nod from Toby. Theo just wants to make Caroline smile again. That’s his job. He does it well.

Stories like these are possible only because of donors like you. Please consider making a gift this Giving Tuesday to animals like Toby and Theo and their people like Caroline—whose lives are immeasurably improved by your generosity.

You can make a donation on our website (https://tinyurl.com/AshevilleHumaneDonate) or shoot us a Venmo . Did we mention your donations are MATCHED today up to $50,000? Please take this opportunity to make your donation stretch twice as far!

Little Theo and Little Toby Thank you.

Giving Tuesday is TOMORROW, can you believe it? Giving Tuesday is one of the biggest fundraisers of the year for nonprofit organizations—celebrating and practicing “radical generosity” across the globe. It’s incredibly important for us this year because we have the opportunity to DOUBLE donations with a $50,000 match!

What do we need?

1. Donations, of course. Please consider making a donation (big or small!) to us throughout the day using the website (link in bio) or using Venmo

2. Your Stories. Please consider making a fundraiser using Instagram or Facebook and tell a story about your pet and how Asheville Humane Society has helped them (or you!) in some way. We’ve included instructions in the following slides!

Here’s an example (and it’s real)

“We adopted sweet Lemonny from Asheville Humane Society in 2022 and she quickly became our whole heart.

When Helene hit, the water came pouring into the house, and little Lemonny REFUSED to walk through it, making mom carry her up the stairs to safety. We made it out with only what we could carry. Our cars had been destroyed, and deliveries were unavailable.

Enter Asheville Humane.

Asheville Humane provided us with everything we needed for our dogs - food, beds, bowls, leashes, collars. It was life changing. We took our other handsome pup, Tadpole, for an urgent care visit at Asheville Humane when he was limping and our vet hadn’t yet opened after the flood. Imagine our relief when they told us it was free!

Our dogs are our world, and after losing everything, caring for them was our first priority. Asheville Humane Society took care of us, took care of them like family. We are so grateful.

I am raising money for Asheville Humane this Giving Tuesday to give back for what we have been given - the adoption of a lifetime, support when we needed it most, and top-notch medical care. Please consider chipping in on behalf of Tadpole, Lemonny, and all animals affected by Helene!”

Before we continue, it’s important to first recognize the hardships folks are still facing. One death is too many. One person missing is too many. One animal displaced is too many. One business destroyed is too many. One home devastated is too many. One job lost is too many. In response to that loss, we look for the helpers. We look for the people who build you up - who build the community up. We look for the people who dig deep, especially when it’s hard, to provide for others - even those they don’t know. We look for the people who go out of their way to get to the “hard to get to spots” (looking at you mule team.) We look for the people who see humanity, who see hope, who see potential. We look for the people who believe that rebuilding is possible - or better yet, inevitable. Right now, helpers are not hard to find. The movement on the ground has been extraordinary. Organizations, people, causes, movements have moved swiftly to care for those affected at the intersection between their mission, their skill sets, their expertise and the greatest needs of the community. We are HONORED to work alongside the organizations and people doing so much good for so many people, animals, and communities. So tell us, yes PLEASE comment below, who have been your helpers? Organizations, individuals, tell it all! We’d especially love to hear stories of those helping animals. Tell us about them. And helpers, tell us about your impact. We want to celebrate with you. Thank you to our helpers, big and small. We thank you, the animals thank you.

Friendly Reminder that our FREE Pet Food Distribution Sites are still kickin’!
