If you live in rental property please obtain permission from your landlord to have a pet. It's sad to see an animal adopted and then returned the next day because '"My landlord found out".

Did you know you can help the animals from Giles Co. (or any county) without adopting?  You can purchase ANIMAL FRIENDLY license plates and the DMV will send an annual check to a local rescue, shelter or humane society. Proceeds from your purchase go to the county you live in. You can order them online or visit your DMV office. Get yours and proudly tell everyone you are ANIMAL FRIENDLY.

Save those empty ink cartridges. Recycle and save a life!  Giles Co. Animal Rescue wants your empty ink cartridges. We can get cash for them and the money is used for our Feral Cat Program.  We trap/neuter/release feral cats to control the over population.  Think of all those cartridges being thrown away and they can now be put to use. Businesses, individuals, students please take the time to save them and save a life! Contact April at gilescountyanimalrescue@yahoo.com for more info.
