Cornelius Animal Shelter

Great experience adopting our new kitten. Great, compassionate staff! The animals seem to be well taken care of here, wonderful shelter. Go see all the animals they have.

Deeply Disappointed. After generously donating supplies to this shelter multiple times, I was shocked by the treatment I received when I finally needed their help. I brought in a kitten who was found alone in a busy parking garage near a main road — clearly a dangerous situation. Instead of offering support, the staff questioned my honesty about where the kitten was found and claimed he was “too friendly” to be a stray. Unbelievably, they suggested I return him to the same unsafe location. Their response was not only unhelpful but also irresponsible. Needless to say, I will no longer be supporting this organization in any way.

I've been at this location twice due to tree work, all workers very nice, one guy brought out a big greyhound mix, we got to pet him an the worker answered every question, if someone would adopt that dog I promise u will have a forever friend for life, that worker needs a good raise he wore glasses, younger guy

The place is nice! They do have a trail and play area. But it is small. They only had about 7 kennels total so there was not a lot of variety. Definitely not worth the drive if you're coming from farther away unless you know for sure that there is a pet that you want. The people attending were very friendly and helpful. The place was clean and nice.

These folks take really good care of their animals. I can tell they all love them. We have adopted several cats from them over the years. A wonderful shelter! They are always taking donations both monetary and food, toys, leashes anything. Always adopt! Never buy!
