Feral Cat Solutions

A trap/neuter/return program serving Moscow, Latah County, and surrounding areas. If you are caring for a feral colony or have feral barn cats, please check this program out!

Spay & Neuter Assistance

If you have a pet animal that needs fixed but just can't quite afford the full cost of surgery, we can help.

Feeding assistance

If you are disabled, unemployed, on public assistance, or otherwise just short on funds and may need to give up your beloved family pet, please stop by the shelter. We keep extra donated cat and dog food on hand to help feed the needy pets in our community! Pet food donations gratefully accepted to enable this program.

Featured Pets

Ladybug

Adoption Pending

Lady Bug was found as a stray. She is a sweet lab kelpie mix and weighs 36lbs. She is approximately one year old give or take a month or two. She does great with other dogs and does fine with cats. In new places she is timid and reserved. Her future owners need to be patient and help her feel comfortable. In the kennel environment she has accidents from time to time in her kennel.

Shadow

Shadow and her sister were owner surrendered to us on May 16, 2008 which also happened to be their 6th birthday. They were adopted from us as kittens and have always been together. Their previous owners told us that they do not do well with children because their 7 year old daughter “tormented them” and they no longer tolerated her doing so. Sam passed away due to kidney failure eailer this month. Now Shadow is here by herself looking for a new forever home. She does great with other cats and with our office dog.

We have pets other than cats and dogs too! Lately we've had gerbils, hamsters, rabbits, ferrets, guinea pigs, degus, two pythons, and a bird come through. Even a chicken! So if you're looking for a pocket pet or small exotic, please call us!
