About Us...
On May 1, 2023 the Ashe Humane Society became a foster home-based rescue that intakes in-danger animals from Ashe County Animal Control only. We no longer have a building nor a shelter and do not take stray animals nor feral cats.
Our new Spay/Neuter Financial Assistance Program and the new Trap-Neuter-Vaccinate-Return Feral Cat Finaicial Assistance Program started in August 2023!!
We sold our building in July 2023 in order to use the proceeds to better serve our community with these new programs and help all pets and community cats!!
Ashe Humane Society would like to welcome the Friends of Ashe County Animal Shelter group to our rescue community!! They now have their non-profit 501C3 and are working hard in the community!! They are in search of volunteers to help in three areas: Foster Homes for cats and dogs; Transport Volunteers for local and regional transports and Shelter Volunteers to assist in animal care & enrichment.
