Cullen's Archangel RescuE

Animal rescue in Lexington, SC


WHY RESCUE?


I looked at all the caged animals in the shelter…the cast-offs of human society.



I saw in their eyes love and hope, fear and dread, sadness and betrayal.


And I was angry.


“God,” I said, “this is terrible! Why don’t you do something?”


God was silent for a moment, and then He spoke softly.


“I have done something," He replied. “I created you.”

Additional adoption info


We adopt out of state at the adopter's expense. Please inquire about the process if you are out of state.



We require potential adopters to fill out an adoption application. Once we receive the application back we will check references (to be included in the application), a home visit will then be set up to see if the animal fits the family and the family fits the animal.



If the potential adopter is approved and all vet care has been finished on the pet, a non-refundable adoption fee is due via check, cash, Zelle or Paypal.



We will check back on you and your new pet in a few days, 1 month and at 3 months (if there is a need, to make sure the adjustment period is a success). Should the adoption not work out, we will always take the animal back as quick as we can. It is required they are ONLY returned to us. Our screening process is geared to hopefully avoid unecessary returns. Please keep this in mind when adopting - it is intended to be a LONG TERM COMMITMENT.



Please ask the foster parent what the adoption fee is as some vary.



All animals come with the following (what the fee includes):

Exam, vaccines, dewormings, microchip, heartworm test (dogs) or FELV/FIV test (cats/kittens), and spay or neuter.
