Lillian Allbon Animal Shelter


 At The Shelter

The Lillian Allbon Animal Shelter is an independent shelter which cares for and re-homes stray or neglected dogs and cats in Cumberland County, Nova Scotia.  We are located at 798 Smith Road just outside Amherst and run mainly by volunteers.

At the Shelter, we provide love and care, but we are not a replacement for the loving home that all companion animals deserve.  If you are looking to adopt a cat or dog please try the Lillian Allbon Animal Shelter first.

We have a small, dedicated team, but we always need more people. Even if you can only spare a few hours, you can get involved.  Fill out a volunteer form and stop by our shelter.
