Welcome
The philosophy of the Cashiers-Highlands Humane Society is to provide a caring and compassionate home for the animals in our care until we find them a forever home. On any given day, we may have up to 75 dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens in our nonprofit, no kill shelter – most of which were strays from the surrounding villages and towns.
Our shelter is tucked away on 10 rolling acres in the Blue Ridge Mountains, surrounded by the natural beauty of scenic forests, mountains, waterfalls, rivers, and lakes.
The dogs and puppies play in spacious outdoor runs during the day. In the afternoon, they are all brought indoors to sleep in their own kennel, on their own bed, with biscuits, toys and soothing music.
The cats and kittens are free to play and interact in two colorful community cat rooms – each with a screened porch and large windows – or in open cages in the lobby. Their lives are enriched with toys and daily socialization by staff and visitors alike.
We welcome visitors to our shelter Monday through Saturday from 10:00am to 4:00pm year-round. Through your support, we can maintain a high quality of care and high adoption rates for our dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens.
