Donations help support:
Donate :
We suggest you donate in increments of $10, $25, $50, $75, $100 or please feel free to enter your own amount.
We are currently raising funds in hopes of expanding the following programs:
Events and benefits:
Fund raising events to help support the organization, educate the public and spread awareness of homeless dogs and cats.
No cost and low cost spay and neuters:
We offer no and low cost spay/neuter to anyone in our community. There is usually a waiting list for this service of 100+.
Medical cost of pets and special needs:
Besides the normal medical work done on every cat and dog in our system, we often have sick animals that require hundreds of dollars in medical care. Please see STAR PROGRAM (Supporting Treatment while an Animal Recovers) on our web site for more information.
Support to other rescues and individuals:
We offer food, supplies and assistance in placing animals and referrals to other rescues at no cost.
Community Education:
Information about our programs is made available to the public through lectures and tours of our facility. Free handouts and our web library cover behavior issues, pet care and the plight of homeless pets.
Feral Cat Colonies:
We assist in TNR (trap, neuter and release) of feral cats in our neighborhoods. Feral cats are wild and can never be pets, but this is a humane solution for limiting the growth of these colonies.
