Spay/Neuter Services

The mission of Power of the Paw is to provide the animals in need with a safe haven through responsible rescue, transportation, foster and adoption and to educate the community about the importance of responsible pet ownership. Our main focus is those in kill shelters that are “less adoptable” due to age, color, or breed. Power of the Paw is a 501(c)3 non-profit rescue organization. WE got our start in 2011 as a Facebook page dedicated to share those animals in danger in our local kill shelters, to bring awareness to the community. Since then, we have helped transport over 1,000 animals from kill shelters to other no-kill rescues across the country, and have adopted out hundreds of animals in our own adoption program.

The Pit Stop Rescue is an all-volunteer group of individuals dedicated to the rescue and prevention of abuse, neglect, and exploitation of these beautiful, loyal, and fun-loving dogs. We are a certified Non-Profit. The Pit Stop Rescue is a rescue group formed to be a voice and a safe haven for the very misunderstood, neglected and abused pitbull breed.

We are dedicated to reducing animal homelessness and abuse by preventing the births of unwanted puppies and kittens. We operate a low-cost spay/neuter clinic for cats and provide vouchers for spaying and neutering dogs at other veterinary offices. We operate a comprehensive trap-neuter-return program for feral cats that includes trap loans, trapping assistance, spaying and neutering, and assistance with ongoing colony management. We provide foster care and adoptions for homeless and at-risk kittens and cats, and occasionally for dogs.

The Thrift Store contributes to the community in many different ways including fostering unwanted cats and kittens in our “Cat Rooms” until they find permanent homes. We operate strictly on memberships, donations from caring individuals, and revenue from our Thrift Store. Unlike the shelter, we are not supported by government funds. I have been with Cherokee for over 5 years, and I love it!! I love knowing when I go to bed at night that I have made a difference in many animals lives as well as the adopters life!

The Perth Amboy Animal Shelter is managed by the local police department and manages all Animal Control services for the town of Perth Amboy. Animal Control Officers facilitate daily operations of the shelter and manage active foster and adoption programs.

We started last June, so barely a year ago. Just obtained 501 status July 10. We specialize in puppies, such as "unwanted litters" and aid in fixing the owners pets. we also specialize in Moms and Pups from the pound, plus many others from the pound and owner surrender.

We are like minded individuals that have been in rescue over 15 years. We wanted to start our own organization because we wanted the freedom to do more rescues and transport of animals out of kill shelters to give them a chance for a new life. We do it because we love to help animals. We named it after Little Ray a blind kitty that goes to schools to teach children how wonderful animals are and that you do not have to be perfect to be perfect....We also have Wonder another blind cat and Dobie a little chihauhau that goes to schools and teach children how to treat and love animals. We also teach how important spay/neutering is to everyone.

My name is Laura and I am the president of CVRR. For 5 years I was the dog coordinator and board member for the Humane Society for Campbell County, where we had one of the largest and most respected foster-care-based rescues in the region. I have been a veterinary technician for 15 years. I have also been a trainer and behaviorist for 10+ years. My volunteers and I pulled away from HSCC because of a varying value system and different long-term goals, to create an organization based on a totally volunteer-run administration where every dollar goes to the animals' care. Educational outreach is also of paramount importance. Rescue has been a huge part of my life and my family's life, and we love having the opportunity to not only help animals get a well-deserved second chance but also play a part in completing a family with a new furry addition. Many volunteers in the rescue world I have found are very much animal people, but I enjoy the human aspect nearly as much as the opportunity to advocate for animals.

we are a small group of volunteers who work tirelessly to spay/neuter every cat that crosses our path, rehome adoptable cats/kittens, feed ferals and help the community to reduce the number of cats euthanized every day. We do it for the love of the helpless/neglected animals we see much too often

Shelter Animals Adocates rescues dogs from Aiken County/City and other rescue/ shelters in our state. We often step in to help support animal efforts for overwhelmed rescues/shelters who help our state/county we foster the dogs, get them ready for adoption, by spay-neuter and other medical needs, We care for them until they can be adopted or move to a no-kill rescue. Under our HeartBeat Campaign we provide HW treatment for heartworm positive dogs rescued from Aiken County shelter, heartworm treatment takes about four months to complete. Most dogs we have for adoption have no where else to go, they are often bully mixes that no rescue has time to adopt out as fosters are hard to commit to lengthy fosters stays. Dogs we have for adoption often wait for months to find the right home. Please consider donating so we can continue our efforts in our state.
