Active members have worked to help cats at local kill shelter through another rescue that prefers to focus on dogs. There are currently no other groups in the community helping specifically cats. Without help,shelter and homeless cats will have no advocates to help save lives and provide care when injured or sick.

We are a nonprofit animal rescue, education and advocacy group. We strive to elevate the societal value of animal life through various activities including: Rescue and placement of unwanted animals Provision of necessary medical care Promoting TNR Adoptions Support for and collaboration with individuals and other welfare organizations Education of the public on the importance of sterilization, basic animal care, humane treatment of animals, and the value of animals as an integral part of our society.

Mission : Our mission is to do what we can, for as many as we can and hopefully one day no longer be needed! Our Inspiration : Vega's New Leash on Life was founded because, and named after, a rescued Flat-Coat / Lab Retriever mix named Vega who came to be a part of our family when my boyfriend brought her with him to live with us. She fell quickly into the matriarchal role in our pack of pups at home. She was always by your side and happy to follow you around the house wagging her tail. She was one of the most loyal dogs I ever had the privilege to live with. She reminded me of my childhood dog, a black lab named Bianca. In August of 2012 I came home to work over lunch to find her being a bit lazy but wagging her tail nonetheless. In a few short but whirlwind hours she went from acting a bit ill to passing away at the vets office from an apparent unidentified tumor. At the age of 7 or 8 years old, she left us way too soon! After trying to settle into life without her in the pack of now 5 pups, we soon realized that her spot in the pack needed to be filled. There was no doubt that it needed to be filled by another rescue. After weeks of searching online I found a 4-5 month old puppy who appeared to be about the same breed and looked like an angel! We started the adoption process and within a few weeks were wrapped up in a world of rescues, shelters and transports. We made the 10+ hour drive to the shelter where she was being cared for in Bamberg, SC where we met an amazing man named Bob who devotes his time to helping the helpless. The shelter was a ram shackled place with about 40 dogs who had been abandoned or lost. Each and every one touched our hearts and we wished we could take them all home. While we were there to get her we helped to rescue two abandoned puppies from a culvert under the road. It was then that we knew that we had found our calling! Upon her arrival at her furever home… she was greeted by the other dogs with lots of sniffs and settled in quickly as the missing member of the pack. She fit like a glove! On our first walk that first night she led me by leash to our front yard and made a b-line to the tree where we had too recently buried our precious Vega. She walked slowly to her gravesite and bowed her head and “whisper-barked” and walked back toward the house. As if to say “it is okay, I will take care of them”! After spending an hour crying in disbelief, I knew she was exactly what we needed… and we were exactly what she needed! From that moment on we have been dedicated to do our best to not allow any other of man's best friends to go without all that they deserve! And here we are today.

We are a small group of dedicated volunteers who hope to make a difference in rescuing, rehabbing, and placing companion animals in homes.

We are a Trap, Neuter and Return group that recently opened a No-Kill, Free Roaming Cat Shelter. We found so many wonderful cats in the field we wanted to be able to provide them with adoption opportunities. We have TNR'd over 4,000 cats in the past five years.

Our mission statement is to reduce the number of euthanized animals by rescuing from kill shelters. We are all volunteers and run our organization on donations and fundraisers. We also have a thrift store that people donate items to and we sell them to benefit our animals.

We have been in business since 1978- non profit no kill shelter- I'm the board president and general manager and volunteer all my time

Island Cat Resources & Adoption (ICRA) is an all volunteer 501(c)3 non-profit humane organization in the Alameda-Oakland area dedicated to reducing the suffering of the mistreated, abandoned, and feral (wild) cat populations and to educating and empowering the local community to aid in their plight. Since its establishment in 1994, ICRA has found homes for over 2,500 cats through our adoption program, spayed or neutered over 11,300, and assisted in getting many hundreds more off the streets and into "no kill" community shelters. ICRA is a small group with limited resources. We owe our accomplishments solely to the hard work and compassion of a dedicated corps of volunteers and supporters who share a passionate concern for the health and welfare of the overwhelmingly large population of abused and unwanted cats in our community.

Domino Effect Animal Rescue is a 501c3 non profit, no kill animal rescue located in Temecula Valley, California. We give animals a second chance at finding a forever home. We educate people on the plight of animals in public shelters to encourage adoption as the primary choice when finding a new pet. We also rescue animals directly from public animal shelters and take in owner relinquished pets. We provide care for all animals in our possession until loving families are found to adopt them. For every animal we rescue, we free up space in city shelters which creates a domino effect that allows other animals in city shelters increased time to get adopted, ultimately saving more lives!
