Congratulations, Lassen County Animal Shelter ! We know how hard it is to achieve this feat, welcome to the no-kill club! ♥️🐶🐱

BIG NEWS, LASSEN COUNTY! WE DID IT! 🎉

🐾 Lassen County Animal Shelter has officially achieved NO-KILL status through Best Friends Animal Society — with a current save rate of 95%! 🐾

This is a milestone worth celebrating, and it didn’t happen overnight. It took hard work, changes, determination, and a community of people who continued showing up for animals in need.

One of the biggest game changers this year was our partnership with Thompson Peak Veterinary Clinic, whose veterinary team stepped up to help us spay and neuter puppies and kittens before adoption. This opened more doors for young animals to find homes right here in our community instead of depending on rescue placement.

We are incredibly grateful to our dedicated rescue partners — SPCA of Northern Nevada, High Sierra Animal Rescue,Pawsibilities, The Biggest Little Cat Rescue and Boxers and Buddies — along with Your Local Pet Station, Lassen Humane Society, our local media partners, Lassennews.com / Lassen County Times and Susanvillestuff.com, Jackie Earnshaw of SitSpot Canine Center, and every person who has adopted, donated, shared a post, or supported our shelter.

From January through October 8th, we took in 525 animals. Behind every number is a living being who needed care, a chance, and someone willing to help.

For our staff, this achievement means so much more than a designation. We have faced difficult days, constant intake, limited options, and the challenge of overcoming negative perceptions while continuing to do the work.

We are tired. We are proud. And we are so grateful. ❤️

We also launched our official page this year so our community could see more of the animals, challenges, and successes happening behind our shelter doors. Today, we get to share our biggest success yet!

Lassen County Animal Shelter is officially No-Kill, and our current save rate is 95%.

This is a milestone — not a finish line. We will keep working, keep building partnerships, and keep fighting for the animals who need us.

Thank you, Lassen County, for being part of this journey. This achievement belongs to all of us! 🐾
