Never pass up adopting a senior cat. I did and she is loving her home thatvi adopted from here 2 years ago. They have so much love to give and so should you.
They are so sweet and just want love. So much change. Lets find them a forever home.
This week, we proudly recognize the incredible Animal Control Officers who serve our community every single day.
Their work goes far beyond what most people see. They are problem-solvers, first responders, educators, and advocates—not just for animals, but for the people who love them. From helping keep pets safely in their homes, to responding in difficult situations with compassion and professionalism, they are truly the bridge between our community and animal welfare.
Because of them: 🐶 Families stay together 🐱 Animals get a second chance ❤️ Our community stays safer and stronger
We truly couldn’t do what we do without them.
Thank you for your commitment, your compassion, and your unwavering service to both people and pets.
If you see an Animal Control Officer this week, take a moment to say THANK YOU—they deserve it more than words can say.
To the brave and compassionate Animal Control Officers of Sullivan County—
You are the quiet heroes who step into the hardest situations with kindness and courage. Day after day, you respond to calls about lost, injured, neglected, or abandoned animals. You crawl into dangerous places, gently coax terrified creatures out of hiding, and give them a second chance at life when no one else will.
You’ve pulled dogs from box culverts, rescued cats caked in filth from hoarding situations (where they still purred in gratitude once they felt safe and clean), saved animals from heartbreaking neglect, and coordinated with shelters and law enforcement to ensure they get the care, medical attention, and love they desperately need. Every stray you pick up, every frightened animal you calm, every life you help transition from suffering to hope—it all matters more than words can say.
You work long hours, often in difficult conditions, facing everything from aggressive situations to overwhelming sadness, yet you keep showing up with big hearts and steady hands. Because of you, countless needy and helpless animals—dogs, cats, and more—have been saved, rehabilitated, and placed into loving homes. You are the bridge between despair and healing for the voiceless.
Thank you for your dedication, your empathy, and your unwavering commitment to protecting the most vulnerable among us. Sullivan County is better and kinder because of the work you do every single day.
You truly save lives—one rescued animal at a time. 🐾❤️
Thank you for giving a voice to those that don’t have one!
Sullivan County is lucky to have you! Exemplary officers!
