In 1955 Ella Merle and her daughter Dede Kline rose to an auspicious challenge of helping animals who had fallen through the cracks of society in Columbia County. Through their dedication and exhaustive efforts, one small building with five dog kennels has today become a multi-faceted animal welfare organization holding up to sixty dogs and one hundred cats.
Over the last six decades CGHS/SPCA has expanded its services in the community to include low-cost veterinary services (serving more than two thousand animals each year); a food bank (providing 25,000 pounds of free food annually to families in need); stray dog housing, assisting law enforcement with cruelty cases; community outreach; and humane education.

Rose
Rose is a 10-year-old domestic shorthair who was transferred to us from another shelter. She’s the sweetest girl with the most adorable purr you’ve ever heard. Rose loves looking out the window and soaking up the sun, but her favorite spot to lounge is on her person’s lap! Rose tested positive for FIV, which means she has a lowered immune system. But as long as the other cats in the home are friendly and there’s minimal chance of fighting, the risk of spread is very low.
