Welcome to the Head Butt Hotel and thank you for stopping by to visit.

Our story began in 2012 with Simby, Punky, and Smokey, and has since catapulted us to another “level” of caregiving for our furry companions. We are a registered South Carolina Charity and Federal 501(c)3 nonprofit “No Kill” organization under Ein# 47-2265522. At our North Myrtle Beach paradise built for our furry friends, we provide rehabilitation and residency for the many extreme and special cases who join us; where each one receives whatever necessary care is required, as if they were our only individual “pet”.

Since receiving our nonprofit status in November of 2014, our experiences, heart-aches and celebrations, have led us to the harsh reality that very few companion animals escape the 50% and rising national cancer rates, affecting their ability to live out their natural lifespans. Our objective is to ensure our residents’ optimal health and wellness, enabling them to live out their best lives ever, and to educate others to do the same. We accomplish this thru an integrated approach, incorporating a food as medicine lifestyle, combined with traditional and holistic veterinary care, and by exercising responsible vaccinations protocols into the care of our housemates. Our residents are never blindly vaccinated, and we are proudly South Carolina’s premiere “Protect the Pets” rescue organization. We mandate titer testing thru Kansas State Veterinary Lab prior to allowing any of our pets to be negligently overdosed unnecessarily and uphold the Hippocratic Oath to “Do No Harm”; a promise which many vets overlook, despite hypocritically safe guarding their own health thru bloodwork. For more information, please refer to the Protect the Pets information provided under our Health and Wellness section.

As a private organization, we rely entirely on tax-deductible donations to continue our life saving efforts; we receive no government funding. We cannot do this without humbly requesting your support. Please consider becoming a regular monthly donor, a virtual “foster parent” sponsoring one of our residents, or perhaps with a donation now.  Every $1 generously donated, helps provide food, shelter, and medical care for the residents whose individual stories and Rainbow Bridge Memorial Tributes, we will share here beginning with this introductory video.

With much gratitude, love, and appreciation, from all of us at the Head Butt Hotel, who are waiting with open paws and hearts, to welcome your visit.
