The county commissioners finally caved and approved the funding for our shelter. After months of them ignoring our local crisis, they had no choice but to listen to us. I will be watching them like a hawk to ensure those funds actually reach the animals.

Please let us know if you would like to see an animal shelter facility in Moore County by simply signing below. Stray,homeless and neglected animals are an obvious problem in Moore County. We need signatures to show the community support to go before the county officials and hopefully get some county funds to help us out!! The more signatures, the better! If you've ever wanted to help a helpless animal, this is a great start!

The momentum we have built proves that the county officials can no longer ignore the suffering of animals on our streets. They think they can keep turning a blind eye to this neglect, but this surge in support shows them exactly where the public stands.

Would love to see them be No Kill and also implement a TNR program for feral cats at the same time.

This will help cut down on the strays, and even help the wild life population which suffer from predation by stray domestic animals.

Definitely needed!!! As a former biz owner on square I have seen many lost/ abandoned animals in town over a time frame of 13 years and many more out in the county

We need an animal shelter in Moore county. Downy road people drop mostly cats but a few dogs. I would keep them all but I can't afford it. Please help us get a shelter.

The need for a shelter and the commitment to meet this need in our community is a documented fact through the valiant efforts of the Moore County Friends for Animals. Moore County is a strong community that should take care of its own and not rely on neighboring counties to manage our pet population.

There is a need for a physical shelter in the Lynchburg area...please be a part of the solution to finding homes for homeless animals and giving them a safe refuge until that day. TNR too!!
