A special girl for a special home.
Welcome to Cougar Pets! We are a local animal rescue group housed on the Central Carolina Community College campus. As part of the Veterinary Medical Technology program, our animals help teach veterinary technician students essential skills that will help future animals.
​
Please note that since we are regulated by the USDA, we are unable to accept owner surrenders from the general public. We are required to obtain our animals from a shelter.
All of our animals are rescued from shelters, and all are adoptable. In addition, they are up to date on vaccines, spayed/neutered, and micro-chipped. Click on the cat or dog below to get started!

Cougar Pet Spotlight
Come, Sit, Stay!
My name is Dorito and I would love to come home with you. I am the sweetest girl and would make the perfect companion for a laid-back household. If you want to go on a stroll or relax on the porch, I am your girl. I have zoomies when I see my favorite people or if you have good snacks to share. Click on my picture to learn more about me.
Do you see a pet you like, but want to meet them first? Make an appointment with our staff and we will set up a Meet and Greet session!
Meet and Greet sessions are by appointment only.
Hi! My name is Patsy. I enjoy spending time with my human friends and playing with my feline pals. A cat tree by the window and a few toys is my definition of a good time. Snacks and naps are nice too. Click on my picture to learn more about me.
NOTE: As a USDA regulated facility, we are closed to the general public and non-colony animals. Meet and Greet sessions are by appointment only! While we love all animals, we request that only people attend Meet and Greet sessions.
