The truly love and cherish their animals here. They provide a bag of food to help you Integrate the animal to what you want to feed them. Then they give you a leash and collar as well. I would whole heartedly support this facility!

I traveled 2hrs out to pick up my sweet kitty from this shelter, and have absolutely no regrets about it! They were very kind and worked with me so that I could come in even though my work schedule didn't line up with their hours, and so many things were included in with the adoption that helped me get my (then KitKat, now) Pocky all set up and acclimated! When I got there he was a little sick, but they had already had him all checked out and gave me medicine for him 😊Now he's a healthy, happy, and spoiled kitty ☺️

I would not recommend this place to my worse enemy! What kind of shelter turns down animals in need because they don't have the room...they said there wouldn't be an opening for a whole month! 😔

I was blessed enough to adopt my wonderful puppy from Mitchell County Animal Rescue. Before leaving with my puppy they provided me with food, pee pads, dog collar, blankets and more. The adoption fee was extremely reasonable considering it included spaying, microchip and vaccinations. My wife and I could not be happier to have adopted such a wonderful pup from such a great organization.

They help so many animals. They make homes happier by helping people find the perfect pet for them. They use Facebook and social media to help more people see their adoptable animals to be sure they get adopted by loving homes.We adopted our newest furbaby, Mo, from them. Mitchell County Animal Rescue saves lives and helps the community so much. With spay and neuter assistance for those in need. Rabies clinics and cheaper shots available to keep your animals up to date and safe.

These wonderful people truly care about animals, and about finding them good "forever homes." We drove 3 hours each way to see them and could not be happier. They knew what sort of dog we were looking for, and found the perfect match! MCAR is truly amazing, and they will have my affection and respect for all my life.

Great place, folks were keeping busy not sitting around, just doing their jobs. We adopted three new kittens who are as sweet as can be!Also, @Bill Horniak, you left a review a couple of years ago. We just went to the Mitchell County Animal Rescue and found thee wonderful cats to adopt. Did you plan on adopting more than one animal? Did you ever consider the fact that the people working there on the phone WERE helping people over the phone? Your review was very self centered. It's a small shelter because it's a smaller place than say a shelter you'd find in Asheville or Charlotte or anywhere else. It's their fault you didnt get what you wanted? THINK before leaving reviews. Consider life from other's point of view before you whine and complain. Your review is very sad and unfortunate.

I brought two cats to get rabies shots and the staff was very courteous and helpful. I didn't even have to go inside. They came out, took one cat in, gave the shot, brought it back out and then repeated the process. I really appreciate the animal shelter and all that they do for the community.

It takes a massive heart to work in the rescue industry and the staff here has proven time and time again that their hearts never close to the needs of animals. They deeply LOVE and PROTECT the staggering number of neglected animals in our community.MCAR is a pillar in our community!Did you know?-If you find an injured or dying animal after hours, you can call 911 and they will have a staff member meet you at MCAR. If the animal can be saved they will take them to the nearest emergency vet and pay for all their needs! If they cannot be saved they will compassionately assist with their transition.-If an animal of your own needs emergency medical care and you cannot afford it, they will assist with veterinary bills and/or euthanasia. There is ABSOLUTELY no reason to leave your animal in crisis due to the fear of cost.-If you know of an animal being neglected, they can facilitate an investigation to check on that animal.MCAR does so much more than rescue animals and find their loving fur-ever homes. They are the protectors and providers for our animal community, all while maintaining the LOVE and COMPASSION in their hearts.As a community we are lucky to have MCAR to turn to in our time of need.Thank you MCAR for the profound support you provide for our community. I am GRATEFUL for all of you and I hold a special LOVE in my heart for your team of WARRIORS.And a Special Gratitude to Aimee for all the times you offered us your guiding, deeply empathetic, hand when we were lost.❤️*If you have the means, please donate to them! It goes to support all those in need!

Got an amazing barn cat named Iris recently, 6 days in, 3 dead rats later, she's the bomb. Also got a kitten there two years ago and he's been the love of my life.

I drove all the way to NC from CT to get my daughters dog and 6 puppies that were pounded due to a legal issue. I spoke with Amber who stated it was fine that I went to get Colby. I unfortunately had to get to my daughter immediately and sent a community outreach worker in my place, after speaking with Heather who OK'd him picking up the dog. When the authorized individual showed up, he was denied picking up my daughters dog. Stated that there was a North Carolina statute that prevented him from picking up the dog. When he challenged the law, she in turn called a Sheriff having the outreach worker removed from the facility. I plan on suing this facility for emotional damages. My daughter has lost her dog that was like a baby to her. Amber and Heather, I do not appreciate you not keeping your word. This is far from over. Plain and simple, you did not give my daughter her dog back because you stigmatized her; which by the way was VERY unprofessional on your part; you do now know her, her family or where she comes from. You should be ashamed of yourself.

Our visit, which was very spur of the moment while on vacation, was just very standoff-ish. Pups were unavailable due to a kennel cough outbreak, and all the cats had upper respiratory ailments.

The people working here are top notch. Caring and compassionate and more than willing to help. The facility is clean and the animals are very well taken care of.

Folks that work there are caring, loving, and knowledgeable of and with each animal; including the director. This is the sign of true dedication and professionalism. Rescue don't shop and start at Mitchell County Animal Rescue.

Today my stepdaughter just put her heart so absolutely broke and learned a valuable lesson by doing the right thing it will haunt you forever to make a long story short my daughter had to surrender her dogs last year due to conflicts with very harsh Neighbors my daughter has been through so much an alcoholic father divorce not long ago her mother owns her own house land and everything now and you got this staff at this particular animal shelter to sit back on their High horses and judge not even knowing the situation has changed so much for the better and I thought people who lived in small towns were better than this so thank you for teaching my daughter invaluable lesson
