Adoptions

Founded in 2003 by Lana Bajsel, Give Me Shelter Cat Rescue (a registered 501(C)3 non-profit organization), has worked tirelessly within the San Francisco community to help stop the overpopulation of abandoned and unwanted adult and senior cats. As a small group of dedicated volunteers, we try to save as many feline lives as we can. We provide behavioral and medical intervention, unconditional love and a safe haven while we seek new forever homes for our feline friends. As many of you know, the odds are stacked against older cats that are placed in local shelters. Here in San Francisco, most adult cats are at risk of being euthanized, whether it is due to their age, easily treatable medical conditions, or due to the stress of being placed in a shelter. We believe that adult and senior cats, with their typically calm personalities, can make the best of family pets. Our mission is to rescue these cats and find them loving, permanent homes through fostering and active adoption strategies.

Lucky's Feral Cat TNR (aka "Lucky's") is a small all volunteer Michigan NonProfit Corporation. Our mission and purpose is to help eliminate the cat overpopulation problem and prevent kitten cruelty in Montcalm County, Michigan through the humane trap, spay/neuter, vaccinate, and return (TNR) of community (otherwise called "feral") cats. We are a group of individuals who have full time jobs, that volunteer our free time to tackle the cat overpopulation problem in our County. All of us have years of experience saving cats, but the idea for Lucky's was born in 2020 while attempting to save a little 2 week old feral kitten named "Lucky". We were not successful in saving his life, but we gave him our love and all the replacement milk he wanted. Over the course of the next 2 years, we encountered 24 more feral kittens (just in our neighborhood alone) and we learned a lot about how to care for "unweaned kittens". We got really good at it. Until Luna. Luna came to us in the Summer of 2022 as a little 4 week old feral kitten. After two weeks, two vet visits, and a bunch of medicine, she succumbed to an upper respiratory infection and severe anemia from flea infestation. Like Lucky, she was the sweetest little angel and we tried so very hard to save her. The last one we attempted to save was Ginger and she too had an upper respiratory infection. That was the last straw. None of these babies deserved the trials and tribulations of their short lives. Now it is our mission and purpose to help save these babies, one spay/neuter at a time.

We are a 501c3 nonprofit rescue farm that also help other kinds of animals when we can.

Rescue Fenix, is a not for profit 501(c)3. We are an all volunteer all breed rescue mobilized by the feeling of compassion for animal welfare: those animals who are in danger, sick, abused and neglect. We ensure that each animal rescued, receives medical care and rehabilitation prior to rehoming them into a suitable furever home. We do not receive government funding and rely solely on the generosity of our donors.

Pawsitive Connections Inc, is a no-kill, 501(c)3 nonprofit dog and cat rescue. We adopt out approximately 300 dogs per year in addition to permanently supporting non adoptable dogs who for either behavioral or medical reasons stay with the sanctuary. We feed a feral cat colony and adopt out a few litters a year. Based out of Kingsburg, CA, we travel on Saturdays from Kingsburs to hold adoption events in San Jose. The Central Valley is a hot spot for homeless pets and by traveling outside our immediate area we give them a better chance of getting adopted. We have made the trip nearly every Saturday for the last 10 years. Founded in the Spring of 2010, we provide the service of quarantining and/or fostering dogs while following appropriate vaccination schedules, as well as providing any other necessary medical care or treatment. All our animals are also micro chipped and spayed/neutered prior to adoption. As an independent rescue, we partner with Central Valley animal shelters. These shelters are often inundated with dogs, especially large breed adult dogs who have a higher risk of being euthanized due to lack of space in shelters. We are not breed or size specific and pull whatever we have room for, puppies to seniors. Presently, many of our large breed adult dogs we have pulled spend many months and sometimes even years with us due to lack of interest. Large breed adult dogs take more resources to support in general. In addition, we will take on the extra cost of pulling medical case dogs from shelters funds permitting. The shelters often cannot afford treatment and/or lack staff availability to provide the necessary round-the-clock care and lack space for the longer-term recovery time they would need. They would be at greater risk for euthanasia without this intervention from us. Shelters are also often not equipped to house young puppies. In a shelter environment, puppies are at high risk for catching parvo, distemper, and other potentially deadly viruses. We often will get a plea to help with puppies that are at the shelter, and we pick up usually within the day to lessen their exposure at the shelter. We also help the community directly by taking owner surrender dogs space permitting. Another direct impact program we have is the Last Litter Program where we work with individual owners that are having unwanted litters. As part of this program, we spay the mother dog, who remains with the original owner, and then we take in her puppies. If owners have other female dogs, we will often spay those dogs as well. After each dog is medically and behaviorally ready for adoption, we strive to place them in their best forever home.

We are a non-profit, 501c3 all volunteer full service rescue group committed to placing unwanted, abused, neglected or homeless Golden Retrievers and Golden mixes in loving, forever homes.
