Organizations Filed Purposes:
TO ELIMINATE THE SUFFERING OF HOMELESS CATS AND DOGS BY PROVIDING HUMANE CARE FOR PETS IN TRANSITION, FACILITATING ADOPTIONS TO GOODHOMES, SUPPORTING PET OVERPOPULATION EDUCATION, AND SUPPORTING STERILIZATION OF COMPANION ANIMALS.
SPAY & NEUTER CLINIC: THE PET ADOPTION CENTER USED A SUCCESSFUL MODEL FROM A NATIONALLY KNOWN ORGANIZATION CALLED HUMANE ALLIANCE (WWW.HUMANEALLIANCE.ORG) TO TRANSFORM THEIR FORMER FACILITY INTO A SURGICAL CENTER. THE GOAL IS TO ALTER BETWEEN 35-45 DOGS, CATS, PUPPIES, OR KITTENS PER DAY. THE CRISIS OF PET OVERPOPULATION IN THE COMMUNITY IS STAGGERING. PREVENTING UNPLANNED AND UNWANTED LITTERS IS A LARGE PART OF THE SOLUTION. THE ORGANIZATION MAKES A DIFFERENCE BY PROVIDING LOW-COST, HIGH QUALITY RESOURCES FOR THE COMMUNITY.
ANIMAL CARE AND ADOPTION: AS A LIMITED-ENTRY COMPANION ADOPTION CENTER, THE PET ADOPTION CENTER TAKES IN HEALTHY, ADOPTABLE CATS AND DOGS FROM OWNERS WHO CAN NO LONGER CARE FOR THEM. AS SPACE ALLOWS, THEY ALSO SELECT HEALTHY, ADOPTABLE CATS AND DOGS FROM OTHER LOCAL ANIMAL WELFARE AGENCIES. PETS THAT ARE ACCEPTED INTO THE CENTER MUST PASS HEALTH AND BEHAVIOR EVALUATIONS. ALL ANIMALS STAY AT THE CENTER UNTIL A GOOD, LOVING HOME IS FOUND. NO HEALTHY, ADOPTABLE ANIMAL IS EVER DESTROYED. IF SPACE IS NOT AVAILABLE TO ADMIT A PET, OR IF THE PET CANNOT BE ACCEPTED DUE TO ANY OTHER REASON, OWNERS ARE REFERRED TO OTHER FACILITIES AND ORGANIZATIONS. ALL PETS, WHILE AT THE CENTER, RECEIVE FOOD, A COMFORTABLE ENVIRONMENT, MEDICAL ATTENTION AND LOVING SOCIALIZATION FROM BOTH STAFF AND VOLUNTEERS. STAFF AND VOLUNTEERS MONITOR THE PHYSICAL, EMOTIONAL AND MENTAL HEALTH OF THE ANIMALS DAILY. A PROGRESSIVE "STRESS REDUCTION" PROGRAM HELPS KEEP THE PETS HEALTHY, HAPPY AND ADOPTABLE. ALL ANIMALS ARE VACCINATED, MICRO- CHIPPED AND SPAYED OR NEUTERED. FOR ANIMALS THAT ARE TOO YOUNG TO BE ADOPTED, VOLUNTEERS OFFER TEMPORARY HOMES THROUGH OUR PET FOSTER CARE PROGRAM.
OTHER PROGRAMS: INCLUDES PET FOOD ASSISTANCE, DOG TRAINNING, NAIL TRIMMING CLINICS, AND OTHERS.
