    Stay away from this place. The people are nice and all but don't take care of the dogs while…read morethey're in there. We got a puppy there recently. It's day 5 with her and she's had blood in her stool everyday. I've reached out and have been told there's no availability until next month. You would think they'd be all over it trying to see what the issue is or want us to bring her in since it's a pretty serious thing. Last I was told was they'd reach out to their director to see if our puppy could be seen in between a surgery tomorrow and here we are today no response back still and more blood in the stool. Went to academy animal hospital and found out she's got 9 parasites in her from being exposed to pretty much nasty environment. Fast forward 2 weeks later the puppy is healthy and gained weight. She's running playing and much happier. Go some where else trust me.

    I can not extend my thanks to this establishment enough. The workers I've encountered/talked to…read morewith my three visits here have always been very nice. They took care of both of my babies spaying and their prices are affordable! My baby was cold so they brought her out wrapped in a blanket and were kind enough to let me keep it. You can get microchipping, spay & neuters, vaccinations, and more here. My favorite feature is that you can conveniently book an appointment through their online portal. They'll email you thorough details for your appointment and they sell a variety of pet items at their office. Lovely place!!

Sherry, one of the volunteers and foster parents is incredible. We adopted a 3 year old pit mix named Preston from MADR last year. Preston was living with a foster family who took great care of him and brought him to adoption events. We saw Preston on Petfinder and fell in love. We called the rescue and talked with his foster mom, Sherry. We could immediately tell how much she cared for her fosters. She gave background on Preston and interviewed us to make sure he would be a good fit. He is high energy and was not trained so he needed an active family of experienced dog owners. We knew he would be perfect as long as he got along with our other dog. We met the rescue in Fayetteville at an adoption event. Sherry was experienced with introducing new dogs. Preston and my other dog, Zeus, thankfully hit it off. Preston immediately took to Zeus and Zeus quickly accepted him as his new younger brother. The rescue offers a trial period before paying the adoption fee. We were very confident Preston would be a perfect fit so we went ahead and paid the fee the same day. The rescue gave us his vet papers, heart worm meds, rabies tag, harness, and leash. Preston was already neutered, microchipped, and up to date on his vaccinations. We love him so much and take him everywhere we can. He loves swimming in the pool, shopping with me, hiking, running, and playing at the dog park. He now knows how to fetch! He is incredibly sweet and certainly high energy. We are very appreciative for Sherry and Making a Difference Rescue. Overall, excellent experience adopting from this rescue and we certainly recommend this rescue to others!

On November 20th I adopted a "healthy" cat as stated per staff and medical records given at the time of the adoption, I was weary to adopt from there due to the dog kennels being closed for kennel cough, I went against my intuition and better judgment and adopted my cat at a price of 125 dollars. Within 2 day my cat had progressively gotten a cough and respiratory issues tried to call however due to holidays they were closed, on the 24th when vets opened again I reached out to our private vet and was told he had a upper respiratory infection and 3 rotting teeth. Called the humane society when they reopened to see what could be done and to let them know there must have been some sort of cross contamination between the dogs and cats, they were not willing to do any kind of reimbursement for out of pocket vet fees or take responsibility that I got a sick cat with dental problems from them, instead they said " you can surrender him back to us" that was there solution to a new pet adoption. Growing up my family has always adopted from Guilford, Yancey, Forsyth county shelters and a variety of rescues and with dealing with all of these we have never been treated with these types of unprofessional staff or substandard practices. Be very cautious about bring home a pet from this particular shelter or donating money to an organization that misappropriates your money.

    This shelter is fantastic. I'm currently a volunteer at the shelter and have been for over a year…read more I have not witnessed the shelter before the Brunswick County Sheriff's Office took it over in 2012, but I have seen what the good of the Sheriff's Office that's done to the shelter and for the animals themselves as a non-profit shelter. New floors have replaced the old floors from the cat room to the dog area of the shelters. New programs have been introduced to the shelter through the benefit of the animals like using donations to help with pets that have heart worm to increase their adoption chances, taking in feral cats and giving them their shots but also spay and neutering them so they cannot procreate and releasing them back into the wild, and the many people in the area who donate to the shelter like toys, food, and well-needed supplies. I have never seen another shelter like this that has this much of a community behind it and as much of a support system for the animals, especially when it comes to animal overpopulation. This shelter sets a great example for other shelters to follow whether through the county's Sheriff's department or through an advocate for animals that ever wanted to operate a functional and pleasant animal shelter.

Sometimes you're so overwhelmed by the number of animals in a shelter you want to cringe or run back out. You might be tempted to do so here at CARA, but you'll be missing out. CARA is small brick building housing some of the nicest volunteers you'll meet anywhere. And they know how to have fun with all their animal residents, dressing them up in festive attire for their holiday pictures on the website, for example. It doesn't matter whether the volunteer is a dog person or a cat person, he or she will spend time with you visiting and interacting with the animals, answering questions and helping you find the perfect friend. On Thursdays, Cara stays open a little later so there's time for you to stop by after work to pick up your new friend, or visit or meet with the cats or dogs. When you stop in, you won't be required to complete paperwork or answer a million questions to get past the front door: the staff will take you right in to meet your (hopefully) future pet companion. The paperwork comes later, but it's a no pressure, stay as long as you like, environment.

The first was "Mister", an incredibly sweet, miniature schnauzer with silver hair (just like mine), so we were inseparable for the rest of his years on earth. The next was "Nakey Jake", an amazing, two-year-old, Sphynx! He's my hairless fur baby who is loving, playful, and sassy. He's proud of his uniqueness, and loves to cuddle when I'm home from work. You'll notice that neither of mine had (or have) actual fur. Schnauzers have hair, and Sphynx have no fur. The SPCA staff and volunteers in Lenoir County are simply wonderful! They care for some very special animals who end up abandoned for some reason, and they keep their stress levels low while finding them the best homes. Adopt one today!

They are starting on the new building that will be located on Hwy 258 Kinston and everyone is excited about that! In the meantime, they have so many animals who need to be adopted. Please everyone if you want a new fur-mily member go check this SPCA to see which dogs and cats they will have. They change all the time so what is there this week won't be the same next week. Keep shopping around each week if you are serious about getting a pet. They occasionally also have other animals (other than dogs and cats) so call and/or go stop by so you can bring one home with you. You will be saving a life.
