Smitty's is a very special place. They go above and beyond every day to help cats and kittens in need. They have a very strict vetting policy for perspective adopters that ensures all the cats in their shelter go to loving caring families. They are a shining star in a dark world where so many cats go unloved and uncared for. Their dedication in making sure all the cats in their care get the love, attention, and medical care they need until they are ready for their forever home is in my opinion unmatched. I am also a rescuer and they have gone out of their way, no matter how overwhelmed they might be, to help me. Best...cat...shelter...on Earth... Period.

This place is so great for cat lovers who are looking to change the life of a sweet kitty ️ They do not do same-day adoption, so be sure you talk to them and get a form that you can complete at a later time. They charge a 95 fee for adoptions and though they do not spay/neuter your cat themselves, they make arrangements for you for when your cat is ready and take him/her in until after the surgery. The staff is great and will welcome your kids even if they tend to be a bit wild around so many beautiful kitties! Anyway, this is a perfect spot for adopting cuddly and everlasting furry friends
Lynne Layton, the owner and operator of Smitty's Cat Rescue Shelter in Chester, VA has an amazing group of kittens and cats of various ages. She has taken in and saved so many with diligent tending and love. She goes to every length of vet care to save a life. She's sung to many a passing kitten/cat as they snuggle close to her heart so they will know that they mattered and they were loved by her. Our kitten that we adopted from Smitty's Cat Rescue actually chose us one Caturday (Cat adoption day on Saturday) and we could not be more in love. Thank you, Lynne Layton, for your love that you put into your shelter and your fur babies. If any of you reading this review have room in your home and your heart for a sweet fur baby that needs both, Smitty's Cat Rescue Shelter on Jeff Davis Hwy in Chester, VA is a great place to inquire and fill out an application for adoption.
Smitty's took these two tiny babies from me this morning after their feral Momma was tragically killed by two dogs running loose through my neighborhood.
I have known Lynne for many years. She loves each animal she gets but mostly cats. She takes them to the vet for check up and keeps them as healthy as possible. If I could have a cat I would get one from Lynne. She is very careful who adopts them to make sure that they we will take care of them properly. I love her and all she does.
Lynne Layton, the owner of Smitty's Cat Rescue came to my rescue when I had to find a new home for my mother's cat as my Mom was in Assisted Living after a stroke and we were having to sell her house. My cat at the time would not allow another cat in the house so Lynne kindly agreed to take her and ultimately adopted the cat herself. After my cat passed away I adopted my current cat from Smitty's. The adoption was a smooth process and my cat was and is happy and healthy. The shelter is cleaned every day and the cats are well taken care of. The shelter will pay for any medical care required for the first 30 days (for adults) or until an adopted kitten is spayed/neutered. Lynne herself is an angel on earth to step up and provide a sorely needed service to the community.
I know Lynne somewhat casually but I have visited her shelter many times and talked with her. She is a kind, big-hearted person who does everything humanly possible to rescue cats, and other animals at times....and even humans! Her shelter is well-run and the cats are so loved. I recommend her shelter to anyone looking to adopt, and also anyone looking to support a worthy, charitable cause. Thank you Lynne and helpers for all that you do!
Lynn has a heart of gold. She rescues all the kitties and has offered help to me when I’ve rescued Feral cats. She is picky about who gets one of these precious babies to ensure they get a wonderful second chance in life. She respects these kitties no matter how long she has them Or how sick they may be. She cries at each loss and names each ones and shows them love till the very end and she has saved soooo many of them. If you know Lynn you know her heart and if you wrote a bad review it’s likely because you weren’t deed worthy for one of the cats who need a great home. So don’t be sour be better!!! Lynn is amazing and she runs one of the best shelters I’ve ever encountered! She has so much love for the fur babies that are helpless. If you need a kitty come see her!
