Colorado

We are a non profit that focuses on providing services to the community to promote the welfare of cats. We operate an affordable spay/neuter clinic, where the cost of the surgeries are subsidized by our donors. Our services are available for any member of the community, as we do not limit by income. We are one of the foremost clinics in Colorado for feral cats. We recognize that when a feral cat is brought to us, it may be the only time it will be seen by a vet in its lifetime. We make sure we what we can for the ferals to ensure they have the best life possible once they are returned to where they came from. We also run a foster/adoption program for kittens. We specialize in socializing feral kittens and all of our foster parents receive training to learn how to help these kittens. We are a foster based organization but do have an adoption room at our locations that our kittens stay at during the week. We also provide trap rentals to anyone in the community that is looking to help a feral cat through TNR. We provide all of these services to help all cats, whether they be a house cat in need of spay/neuter or a community cat through our different programs. Through the two and a half years that our foster/adoption program has been in place, we have been able to pull around 400 kittens off the streets and get them into loving homes. This has decreased the number of feral cats being born outside and give these kittens a life of always being loved and cared for.

TAGG is a PACFA licensed volunteer only 501c3 rescue organization that exists to help move dogs from high risk locations such as Texas to fosters and adopters in Colorado.

Wild Blue Cats! is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to saving the precious lives of cats and kittens who are abandoned, abused, neglected, displaced or surrendered, and to find them permanent homes or provide lifetime sanctuary or foster care. 100% of the cats we help are spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. We are committed to preventing/eliminating euthanasia of treatable and savable animals. Euthanasia is a last resort for animals suffering severe injuries or illnesses which are causing extreme discomfort and poor quality of life for the animal. Wild Blue is a volunteer run organization, with programs ranging from subsidized care costs for low income families to kitten therapy for at-risk populations.

We are a foster based, 501c3 non-profit rescue, dedicated to the health and wellbeing of dams and their litters. We see our rescue dogs through pregnancy, birth (whelping), nursing, weaning, and adoption. In addition to providing necessary care, we also work to socialize, train, and evaluate each dog to ensure that they find permanent forever homes. This involves establishing close and trusting relationships with our volunteers, adopters, and the community.

We are a foster-based feline rescue specializing in matching felines to their purrfect forever home.

We are a nonprofit organization improving the lives of stray, feral, and abandoned felines with TNR service and socialization for adoption. We believe every cat deserves a home and work our best to eliminate the term "unadoptable."

A Sanctuary for Pyrenees while awaiting Adoption Who are these folks, and why are they helping these beautiful dogs? This is the puppy that started us on our journey to help these great dogs - Nichole John and Linda Kryder started by adopting their first Pyr puppy, & Nichole, in 1992. In learning to live with a little Pyr, they got involved with the Great Pyrenees Club of America, participated in the activities of a regional group and eventually became involved in the group's rescue program. One thing led to another and in 1994 they separated from the club and formed PYRescue. They incorporated and became a nonprofit 501(c)3 in 2011. On an average, they rescued two Pyrs a week, placing over 2500 Pyrenees in new homes over the years. In June of 2015, they finally decided to retire and turned the reins over to new owners and operators Judith Dole and Dr. Michael Heffron, who bought a large property just a few miles northeast of the Kryders in 2014. Michael and Judy built a new facility designed specifically for the needs of these big, beautiful dogs, which can be seen on our Facilities page The Pyrs who are awaiting placement now have a 4 acre fenced pasture to run and play in, 150 square foot indoor/outdoor heated and cooled kennels with large comfy beds and blankets. Tax-deductible donations pay for food, utilities, transportation expenses, and vet bills. Please consider sponsoring a Pyr that we are currently sheltering, or if you would like to make a donation to help these wonderful animals, contact us or use the credit card or Paypal link on our homepage. Our Mission The mission of PYRescue is to provide for the continuing care and support of all Great Pyrenees in need of assistance through no fault of their own. PYRescue shall continue to provide all necessary care; medical (including spay/neuter without exception), physical and emotional, as required to ensure the placement of every homeless and unwanted Pyrenees that comes to PYRescue in a permanent, happy, and loving home environment suitable to the needs of each Pyrenees. PYRrescue's efforts shall extend throughout Colorado and the surrounding States as needed.

Paws on the Ground Colorado was founded in 2016 by a group of dedicated advocates who envisioned a puppy mill free Colorado. We are a 501c3 organization dedicated to ending puppy mill commerce in Colorado. We are helping a local pet store offer rescue puppies & kittens in the store and transition to a humane model, as well as fostering and adopting out animals in need.

Our mission is to decrease the number of unwanted and stray animals that will never get to experience a loving home by promoting spay and neuter and adoption. We provide TNR (Trap-neuter-return) services to communities with populations of feral kitties- taking in those tame adults who have been abandoned or those kittens that haven't yet lived a life in fear of humans and finding forever homes for these kitties. We also accept cats from individuals and other rescue organizations and help place them into homes. All cats and kittens that are adopted from our rescue are spayed and neutered, and we also assist with people that are unable to afford the spay or neuter procedure. We only euthanize those animals that are experiencing incurable suffering and focus on treating and loving every individual animal that comes into our care.

Cat Care Society (CCS) was founded in 1981 by Linda East, DVM and Lynn Rowe. CCS is a nonprofit organization and was established in order to improve the quality of life for homeless, injured and abused cats in the Denver metropolitan area. The Society's goals are: To sponsor educational programs that promote responsible pet ownership, humane treatment of all animals, and the elimination of pet overpopulation; To shelter cats in a healthy, cage free environment and to find compatible and responsible families for every cat; To provide community outreach programs that improve the quality of life for cats and people; To be a friend to all cats. The shelter provides a temporary refuge for more than 50 cats until an appropriate and permanent home can be found for each. Veterinary care, premium diet and human interaction are lovingly provided. The large number of phone calls received each day from people who have found abandoned, abused or injured cats needing good homes indicates a strong community need for our services. We receive an average of 70 phone calls for assistance daily. Sadly, more than half of these are from owners needing to give up their cats. For these cats, we provide Information about placing the cat and referrals to other area shelters. We also provide this same information to people who have found a cat when we are at or over our capacity and cannot take the cat. Many calls involve behavioral problems or are questions about feral (wild) cats. Behavior counseling and printed articles on a wide variety of topics are available at the shelter. Cat Care Society is supported by a number of loyal members and contributors, without whom we could not operate. We receive no government funding. In addition, our volunteers assist with many fundraising activities each year such as our Tails of the Painted Cats Gala Dinner & Auction, Meow Mart, Paws On The Green Charity Golf Tournament, Santa Paws Festival, Colorado Gives Day, and much more. We offer these these programs for our donors: Nine Lives Legacy Society Nine Lives Cat Guardianship Program Nine Lives Partners Giving Club CCS respects the privacy of our donors. We do not sell or exchange our mailing list to anyone.
