Go meet their pets

Some of our kitties are housed at the Adoption Center inside of Petsmart at the Rivergate Shopping Center. The Adoption Center is staffed by Saving Southern Kitties Volunteers, seven days a week. On Saturdays, we hold an adoption fair and kitties that are housed with our foster families come to Petsmart to meet and greet their potential families! Our Petsmart is located at 14137 Rivergate Parkway
Charlotte, North Carolina 28273. We can also arrange for private meet and greet sessions as needed.

More about this rescue

Saving Southern Kitties is a South Carolina rescue devoted to saving cats and kittens from high kill and rural shelters, where euthanasia rates are extremely high. At Saving Southern Kitties, we are making a difference of the lives of cats who have no voice.

At Saving Southern Kitties we focus our efforts on those cats and kittens which are never seen on the adoption floors at these shelters and are labeled "rescue only". Shelters do not usually have space to put all of the cats on the adoption floor and must decide which ones don't make the cut. Usually it's those who aren't super fancy, have a sniffle, or are thing from being a stray for too long. Oftentimes, they are only given a few days to get out by a rescue group or be euthanized. We are their only chance at finding a forever family. We spend the money needed to make them healthy and adoptable. Because of this, our average dollar amount spent per cat is quite high. We aim to keep our adoption prices very reasonable!

Saving Southern Kitties is making a difference for these precious lives, one at a time! MEOW Y'ALL!
