Spay & Neuter
Our primary goal is to provide spay/neuter for dogs and cats through various programs.
Sadly, there are more animals than good homes. Our local shelter is full and making difficult decisions daily. Spay and neuter is the humane way to reduce the population of homeless and unwanted animals!
In 2025, we spayed and neutered over 1,500 dogs and cats. We have something big in store for 2026 – stay tuned!
Pet Assistance
We also help the animals and the people who love them through our owner assistance programs, including vaccinations, microchips, pet food, housing, and medical assistance. These programs help people keep their animals at home and out of the shelter.
During 2025 we administered 2,500 vaccines (rabies, feline distemper, and canine distemper/parvo) and microchips to dogs and cats!
Foster & Rescue
And we are working harder than ever to help those animals that are already here and in desperate need of a lifeline through no fault of their own. Because of the support of our donors, we are able to respond immediately when called.
During 2025 we rescued 660 homeless or unwanted dogs and cats, taking them into our pet foster homes and providing them with medical support and love!
There are many ways you can help.
Volunteer, donate, or become a member!

Pet News
This is what you call dedication, cat loving madness, having a huge heart……whatever it is our wonderful volunteers - Laurie Methven and Megan McFatter have gone thru snow, sleet and freeing rain - and pretty steep hills to feed, water and provide life-saving shelters for 2 semi-feral cats that were left behind to fend for themselves when their owner “left” 😞 They have done this all during this winter storm with no complaints at all. Nancy Harrison Taylor has found them a new home and plans are being made for s/n and to get them settled in and safe next week. It is what we do! 💕 🐾

Not limited to Ex’s. Maybe a bad boss, or that neighbor that left their dog tied out in freezing weather. Let’s get them all buried in the litter box!
You can comment a name or message us and we will put it in the litterbox.
