This decision helped create a model for other pet stores and shelters to follow.

“Twenty years ago, Feeders Supply became the first pet supply company in the region and one of the first in the nation to allow an animal shelter to have a permanent adoption center on their premises,” said Lori Redmon, KHS President & CEO.

Other animals may be “wallflowers” who are shy and need time in a foster home to relax. Many of our foster caregivers work full time and already have pets on their own. Interested in learning more?
