Hours of operation:
Every day of the week from 8:30 AM - 12 PM except on Wednesday. We are closed to the public on Wednesdays due to vet trips.
IT IS ILLEGAL TO DROP AN ANIMAL OFF (ANIMAL ABANDONMENT). We have security camera installed, and will press charges against anyone whom abandons an animal at our facility.
