Pet Guards is at this time a cat-only shelter. We no longer have the facilities to house dogs or puppies, nor do we have the facilities or funding to handle wild or feral cats. We are not at this time taking in any more cats or kittens. We already have as many as we can care for well.

To meet any of the fabulous felines waiting for a new home, our adoption center is at 950 Hardy Rd., Cuyahoga Falls. Tues-Friday 12-6 and Sat 10-4. If you would like to meet one of our wonderful felines in the evening, please contact us for a time to make sure a volunteer will be there to show you around. Whether its a cat or kitten you are looking for, we hope that you will come in and meet all of our deserving felines.

Pet Guards has been a no-kill shelter since we opened 20 years ago. When we take in a pet, we are dedicated to finding it a new home. Unfortunately, some cats are harder to place than others. Sometimes the reason is timing. It is difficult to place adults during kitten season. Sometimes the reason is because not all cats ask to be noticed in the shelter, so they tend to wait patiently to be noticed. Sometimes it is because the cat/kitten is black or black and white and there are so many of them that they don't stand out as special. Sometimes there is no reason that can be explained for why a cat stays with us longer than it should. What ever the reason, we have some very nice, deserving cats who are waiting for their chance at a new and forever home.

Recently, a friend sent me this article from Best Friends about a deserving cat. It made me think of some of the cats in our system waiting for a new home. http://news.bestfriends.org/index.cfm?page=news&mode=entry&entry=F112D0E9-F9DF-73C0-34462337EA7E11DC

Pet Guards Shelter is a private, not-for-profit, no-kill, and no time limit humane organization located in northeastern Ohio. The Shelter is funded entirely by donations from individuals and companies, and would not be able to serve as many animals as it does without the generousity of the community. The shelter is not affiliated with any humane society nor supported by any government or tax dollars.

Pet Guards Shelter is dedicated to providing temporary shelter for displaced animals that are waiting for permanent loving homes. A primary mission of the shelter is to reduce the overpopulation of pet animals through providing low-cost spaying and neutering, and to lower the regular costs of pet ownership by offering low-cost vaccinations.

Our adoption center is open at 950 Hardy Rd. in Cuyahoga Falls. Adoption Center hours are Tues-Fri 12-6, Sat 10-4 and evenings by appointment.
