Adopt an ANGEL is a 501c3 charitable organization based in New Hanover County, North Carolina. We were founded in January of 2004 and our mission is to reduce the numbers of animals euthanized in our area shelters through aggressive adoption and spay/neuter programs. 

ADOPTION FAIRS:  

DOG ADOPTION FAIRS AT PETCO every Sat from 11:30-4.  

Cats and Kittens at PETCO in the Lowe's Home Improvement Store next to Staple's on College Rd. every Sat and Sun from 11:30-6. 

Cats and Kittens are in Petco and Pet Supermarket in Wilmington and PetSense in Leland and Shallotte 7 days a week during regular store hours.  

We partner with area shelters, to concentrate on the cats and dogs that have run out of time or have special needs. We move them to a safe haven with private citizens, strive to provide them with any veterinary care they need, and then we find them loving homes. Since 2004, over 11,000 of these previously unwanted animals found their forever homes through our safety net. When one of ours gets adopted, we go and get another. It's as simple as that! All active volunteers receive no monetary compensation for their work. They graciously donate their time, talents and finances to this worthwhile cause. Download Our Brochure.

Adopt an ANGEL has no real shelter. It is a foster home network. Please visit us and our homeless animals at Petco during our weekend adoption fairs. We are at Petco on S. College Rd in Wilmington, NC every Sat and Sun from 11-5.  You may also visit with a sample of our cats at Petco, Pet Supermarket in Wilmington or at PetSense in both Wilmington and Shallotte. Our cats and kittens are in these stores 7 days a week.

To further reduce local pet overpopulation Adopt An ANGEL created  Fix A Friend Spay Neuter Clinic. This clinic is part of the National Spay Neuter Response Team and has performed over 100,000 surgeries since opening in 2013. 

Fix A Friend is growing!  We are expanding and need your help.  We are busting at the seams and we are enclosing in part of our porch and turning our lobby into more kennel space.  We need funding for the building construction as well as for more cage banks, stainless steel shelving and dog runs.  If you choose to donate to help us, please add that in the comment line as you donate below.  

Please DONATE TODAY to help our local cause. Donations fund spay/neuter surgeries, heartworm treatments, veterinary care for sick and injured animals, adoption fees at local animal controls, gas for transport vehicles and necessary supplies such as:  leashes, collars, carriers and crates. We could not do this without your generosity. Thank you for helping us help them.
