Frequently Asked Questions

Are you a no-kill shelter?

Yes, Little Victories Animal Rescue is a donor-funded, lifesaving shelter. We do not euthanize for space and do not receive any county, state, or federal funding. We are entirely donation-based and rely on the generosity of our community to care for up to 90 animals.

How do I adopt from your shelter?

Complete an adoption application to make an appointment to meet our dogs/cats through the week, or drop in from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Thursday through Sunday. Check out all adoptable dogs and cats in our online galleries, and read through our Adoption FAQs before applying.

Can I volunteer at Little Victories?

Yes! We welcome volunteers for a variety of tasks, including but not limited to: dog walking and playing, cat enrichment, cleaning kennels and the Cat House, Doggy Day Out, prepping enrichment, lending a hand at special events, and so much more! Visit our Volunteer page for more information.

How do I report animal cruelty?

All animal cruelty claims should be reported to your county humane officer. Little Victories is a private entity and has no jurisdiction to seize animals without owner permission. 

I found a kitten outside. What should I do?
  • First determine if the kittens appear sick or injured. If yes, take them to a veterinarian as quickly as possible.
  • If the kitten appears healthy, attempt to determine if it is at least 8 weeks old. At 2 months, kittens will eat on their own, weigh around 2 pounds, and will have good coordination while walking, running, and playing.
  • If the kitten appears to be healthy and at least 2 months old, contact rescue groups or your county shelter to surrender the kitten.
  • If the kitten is NOT at least 8 weeks old, look for its mom (she may be off hunting). If she is present and the kitten is healthy, she is likely doing a great job caring for it. It is best to provide mom with food and shelter until the kitten can eat on its own. However, once the kitten is weaned, it is essential to find a way to spay the adult cat to prevent more litters, whether through surrender to a shelter/rescue or through a TNR program.
  • If you don’t see mom within a few hours, the kitten is likely orphaned and needs help! Reach out to rescue groups or bring them to your county shelter.
Do you help members of the community with vet bills?

Due to our capacity and limited funds, we can only provide veterinary assistance to animals in our care.

Can you keep my dog or cat for a period?

Any healthy and behaviorally sound animal surrendered to Little Victories will be placed up for adoption and given every opportunity to find a forever home. We do not offer temporary boarding or care.

How many animals do you care for?

Our facilities and capacity for care allow for up to 35 cats and 55 dogs.

If I have a surrender added to your waitlist, how long will it be until you can take it?

Little Victories is a private rescue with a limited capacity. We cannot take in new animals until a space opens through adoption, therefore we cannot predict the timeline for an intake on the waitlist. We highly recommend you seek out other options such as rehoming using Adopt A Pet or Facebook groups or other rescue groups, as they may be quicker options for surrendering your pet.
