Meet Sterling
In rescue there is great joy and great heartache... and sometimes these two emotions come with the same story. Two years ago Sterling and Sawyer were adopted together as kittens. We were overjoyed at their good fortune. The brothers loved each other and their hooman mama. She took great care of them and they were happy cats. Sadly, their mama died recently. Her caregiver took care of the boys after their mama passed but is unable to keep them. Thankfully, she called us to see if we could take them back. Of course we will! Once a Smithgall family member always a Smithgall family member.

Sterling's brother Sawyer was recently adopted and we were wondering how he would do. Surprisingly, Sterling has thrived! He was a little subservient to his brother and now he is full of confidence and love. He's the first one to greet anyone coming into the cat room and runs over to cuddle up in a lap for a purr and snuggle. Sterling will transition easily into a new home once he feels loved. If you love a big, warm cuddle bugs on a cold winter day, Sterling is just the cat for you. If you're able to give Sterling a loving furever home, please submit a cat application from our website www.charlessmithgallhumanesociety.org

Please call our shelter at 706-865-4135 or email us at smithgallhumanesociety@windstream.net to verify that we received your application. All adopters must complete an approval process which involves a reference check with current/recent vet and a brief home visit if located in the immediate area. We do permit out of state adoptions. Adopters MUST come to the shelter to transport their new family member home. We do not ship nor do we transport them to their new homes. Adoption policies and application procedures are detailed at the shelter website: http://charlessmithgallhumanesociety.org/ under tab All Adoptable Animals.
Charles Smithgall Humane Society (CSHS) is a No kill shelter. Animals in our care remain safe with us until adopted. Resident animals are either owner relinquished rescued from area Animal Controls or high kill shelters. The facility usually is operating at capacity with a list of animals waiting for space to open.
