At this time, SWCHS does not have the kennel capacity for personal feline surrenders.
SWCHS still accepts stray felines from our specific service areas within Wood County Wisconsin.
Please be kind, patient, and understanding with staff as we work to get our current feline residents adopted to open up more kennel space.
Please be kind, patient, and understanding with staff as we are experiencing an increased number of abandoned and unclaimed pets and do not have enough kennels to immediately accept cat surrenders. We do have resources for rehoming links that you use to create a profile and rehome your pet yourself. These links can be found on the menu of this page under the “services tab” > “surrendered animals“. Whenever pets can go directly from your home to their next forever family we all experience a better outcome. Thank you!
For any further questions about surrendering a feline: please contact us to ask for the link to our pet owner surrender questionnaire so we can help you add your pet to the surrender waitlist. We have limited capacities and sometimes experience a large number of requests so we are not able to provide any estimate as to how long the wait will be.
