Kuranda Beds

Help our shelter pets sleep and relax in style! Kuranda beds are cozy cot style beds that give our animals that extra ounce of comfort. These are the best beds for the shelter environment as they are chew proof, easy to sanitize and provide orthopedic comfort. No more sleeping on the floor. Consider donating a bed for our shelter animals. All the animals will get to use the beds, strays and adoption animals. Donate a Kuranda bed.

Financial Donations For Non-Essential Medical Expenses

Cabarrus County operates a special fund to take donations for non-essential medical expenses for animals housed in the shelter. The County works with local veterinarians to negotiate services at a reduced rate. Financial donations can be brought to the shelter in person or made over the phone with Mastercard or Visa cards.
