119 Main Street Andes, NY
On Saturday, April 5th HCHS will be opening the doors to our first “permanent” store, Gifts from the Heart, at 119 Main Street, Andes, next door to Hogan’s General Store. Volunteers have been working very hard for the past month and the place is gorgeous!!! The store will be open on weekends only from 11am to 4pm until Memorial Day weekend. The hours will then change to Thursday thru Sunday 10am – 4pm or by chance. The store is totally volunteer run and the items for sale are all donated. All proceeds go to the care of the homeless pets in our community and to keeping the doors of the shelter open.
If you would like to volunteer at Gifts from the Heart or have new or gently used items to donate please call Ann Lukin or Deb Crute, at 607-746-3080 or email info@heartofthecatskills.org. We regret that we are NOT accepting clothing or used electrical items at this time.

Featured Shelter Beauties
Bindi
Bindi LOVES children, she was raised with over 5. She was raised on a farm and kept outside all of her four years on a radio collar. Bindi loves the companionship of people and thrives on attention. She is friendly, affectionate, just loves to play and will come when called. Bindi needs a "forever" guardian that can give her the well deserved time and patience to teach her the rules she needs to know to become a well adjusted pooch. She is worth the effort. If you know of someone who would be Bindi's perfect match please contact the shelter and come and visit Bindi, you will love her. Visit Bindi on Petfinder
Sweety
Sweety entered the shelter on November 8, 2007 as a stray at the age of about 2 years old. She's a beautiful black/tan marbled tabby with white feet, neck, chest, belly, and the left side of her muzzle. As her name implies, she's a very sweet cat. She will meow at you to get some attention and affection. Visit Sweety on Petfiner
Devita
Devita could be the love of your life; she's a spunky, friendly female who entered the shelter as a stray on November 3, 2006 when she was just 6 weeks old. She's a lively young lady now who loves attention and insists on getting it. If you want a companion, Devita is the one for you. Visit Devita on Petfinder
