Five Acres Animal Shelter

After visiting other facilities, this facility far exceeds all others in the St Charles County area. It was clean all the way around, the staff in cat and dog buildings were very attentive to the animals who live there and the humans that come in. They also have a little store where you can purchase items for your animals that the proceeds go toward the shelter animals. I did adopt a fur baby from here, and can't wait to come back and visit, as well drop off more donations. Thank you Five Acres for going above and beyond for these sweet fur babies, it truly shows!

Could say greater things about 5 acres, we adopted out first kitty yesterday and the process was more than ideal! We got to play with him for a WHILE before choosing to adopt him. He’s the sweetest and very feisty and playful guy ever!!! We have fallen head over heels with him and would suggest this place to anyone looking to add to there family!

Five Acres Animal Shelter is the only place I go to adopt my pets. The animals come vetted and evaluated to ensure they are a good match for people. The love they share with the animals is seen by the way the animals react around staff. I am happy to volunteer my time here now as well. It's a great organization.

I can't say enough good things about this establishment and the kind people that work there. We adopted a kitty from somewhere affiliated with them and ran into a slight issue with the kitty's health. The place we adopted him from said we could bring him back and trade?? I called 5 Acres and their staff and doctors didn't hesitate to help us! My 4 year old granddaughter didn't have to TRADE her new baby because they were so kind. Amazingly compassionate! Thank you so much!!

I adopted Frankie back in April, and saw he had FIV+. The adoption ladies told me that FIV meant he was a little more likely to get sick and likely to get a little sicker. They were phrasing it meaning he would just get a little bug a little more often. What they DIDN'T tell me was he was WAY MORE LIKELY TO GET CANCER or anything else, and that HE WAS CONTAGIOUS through blood. Frankie died TODAY and the vet said it was due to him having FIV, most likely. I loved Frankie, but I would have liked to know that I would be hit with financial heart ache along side losing my beloved pet instead of being lied to just to get an adoption sent out! I WILL NOT ADOPT FROM HERE AGAIN. I don't want to write one of those stereotypical 1-star reviews, but this genuinely screwed me over so bad and it was
