Foster Care

C.A.R.E. is a non-profit, all volunteer and foster-based animal rescue located in Columbus, Indiana working to promote animal welfare through community awareness, education and responsible pet adoptions. We promote spaying and neutering as the way to relieve the number of animals entering our local shelters.. We work with local shelters to help with overpopulation and to increase the number of adoptions.

We work with the rescue, adoption & sanctuary of companion animals, equines and some exotics. We also provide spay/neuter assistance as well as transport for other rescue groups. We pull from our local kill shelters as well as accepting owner surrendered animals. We are a no kill group who works hard to keep animals out of our kill shelter by intercepting them prior to them being sent. All our animals will stay with us until homes or other rescues can be found for them. We do NOT euthanize for space but for that reason we have a limited number of animals that we can take at any time.
