The Cape Coral Animal Shelter is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization located in Cape Coral. The Shelter organization, in partnership and with the full support of the City of Cape Coral, will create a non-profit, no-kill animal shelter for Cape Coral residents and the animals in need.  The City is growing, more and more people are deciding to make Cape Coral their home, and the need for a No-Kill animal shelter is great.

The Cape Coral Animal Shelter organization is dedicated to engaging a special bond between people and animals by means of adoption services, medical care, education and training for the prevention of cruelty and abandonment.  The Cape Coral Animal Shelter will provide a safe place where animals will receive the care they need and remain until they are placed in a qualified, forever home.

Currently, CCAS is working with the City of Cape Coral in building an Animal Shelter – located next to Sun Splash Water Park in mid Cape. The Shelter will be built in phases: Phase I will be an adoption center, intake area, reception, small medical area, offices, play yard and a small animal grooming area.  Phase II will grow the facility to accommodate more animals and a larger Medical Clinic, which will also allow for a teaching and training area to educate both the human and animals friends. Part of the Shelter’s primary mission is education to help prevent cruelty, neglect and abandonment of pets.

Any who would like to be involved in our mission are cordially invited to visit our website:
