Helping pets find their purrfect match Local animal shelters and their dedicated teams make a difference for pets in need every day.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (QC Life) - Local animal shelters do so much for pets in need, from providing care and comfort to helping them find loving homes. Behind that work are dedicated people making a difference for animals in our community every day.

Melissa Knicely from Charlotte-Mecklenburg Animal Care and Control joins QC Life with kitten Grease to shine a light on the shelter and the people who care for its animals.

Adoption and fostering are important ways to help shelter animals. Even a short-term foster stay can provide a pet with a break from the shelter and time in a home environment.
