We are the Humane Society of Cherokee County and we are also Cherokee Rescue Animal Shelter. Cherokee Rescue Animal Shelter is the public adoption portion or our society. We began this arm of HSCC with a transport that became known quickly as "The Miracle Transport" with many transporters working their magic to deliver 60 puppies to New Jersey in one day.....it was indeed a miracle. We suddenly realized that there is hope out there....with many many people who were willing to help us save these innocent lives. We now have our own van which was donated just before Christmas. (talk about a great Christmas present !!!) We travel north weekly carrying around 20-25 animals to their "forever homes". We have been in existence for approximately five years. We are an approved 501C3 and our vision is to eventually become a "no kill" shelter and community within five years. We received a generous $100,000 donation with which to build an adoption center and we will be breaking ground in a few weeks. The adoption center will be "no kill" from the beginning with limited shelter admissions coming only from the public shelter and not accepted from the general public. We realize this is a luxury we can only afford because there is a public shelter on the same property which accepts all animals and is a "high kill" shelter. It is our goal to stop the killing with low/cost spay neuter programs, pet licensing and aggressive adoption opportunities through stores, malls and nearby PetSmart where we are an official partner. Letters which follow animal's name, S=shelter, F=Foster and V=Vet signify where the animal is located.... Contact Animal Allies in Spartanburg, SC at 864 576 6971 for a low/cost.
