Randolph County Animal Shelter 4.9 ★ 13 reviews Start an adoption application

Randolph County Animal Shelter (RCAS) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit animal shelter in Wedowee, Alabama. It was founded by a group of local volunteers who saw a need for a temporary home for the area's many abandoned animals, and opened its doors on October 27, 2007. Since then, RCAS has worked to find loving homes for stray and abandoned dogs and cats in the community, aiming to reduce animal suffering, improve animal health, and educate the public about responsible pet ownership. The shelter is open Tuesday through Saturday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. (closed Sunday and Monday). Adoptable pets, including litter-box-trained cats and dogs with videos, can be viewed through Petfinder and the shelter's Facebook page; once you've found a pet you're interested in, you can call the shelter to learn the next steps. Rescue organizations looking to partner with RCAS can contact April Smith directly. RCAS relies entirely on donations, membership fees, and volunteer support (from everyday supplies to hands-on animal care) to keep operating, since it receives no other guaranteed funding.
