One of the last remaining no-kill animal shelters in Northeast Florida is facing financial trouble and may have to close its doors.

An uptick in abandoned animals and decrease in funds has the Humane Society of Northeast Florida in Hollister searching for new ways to stay open. The facility serves Putnam, St. Johns, Clay, Baker and Alachua counties.

The nonprofit agency cut hours from five full-time employees last month, causing them to quit. It’s expecting to fire seven of its remaining 14 employees within 60 days. And unless the shelter sees an immediate surge in donations or adoptions, a permanent close may be immanent, said Kristi Adams, shelter co-supervisor.

“We’re trying to stay open as long as we can to adopt out these animals,” she said. “Right now we’re just grabbing an extra month, and grabbing an extra month, and hopefully a big donation will come in soon.”
