Lots Of Love For Animals

Animal shelter in Chloride, AZ

Lots of Love for Animals (LOLA) is a non-profit organization with our main Sanctuary located in Chloride, Arizona and an office in Las Vegas, Nevada. LOLA was founded in 2005 by Gerard and Maureen Fogarty along with Will and Mary Linville.

Maureen is an elementary school teacher who works with special needs kids. She began working with animal organizations twenty years ago while living in New Orleans, Louisiana. Establishing Lots of Love for Animals was the fulfillment of her dream.

Gerard managed industrial laundries for the City of New York until his retirement. A lifetime of building and fixing things prepared Gerard for planning and erecting a sanctuary, where there is always something to build or fix.

Maureen and Gerard acquired a piece of property in Chloride, Arizona in 2005. In 2006 they visited Best Friends Animal Society in Kanab, Utah, where they learned about constructing and operating an animal sanctuary. That year Maureen and Gerard began construction on a building large enough to house 140 cats and dogs with living space for caretakers. Gerard did as much of the work himself as he could, taking side jobs along the way to help finance the project.

The couple kept moving toward their goal despite the terrible economy. From the beginning they have paid the bulk of the organization’s bills. Maureen lost her house, but she and Gerard managed to keep the sanctuary open. Gerard declared the sanctuary livable in 2008, after receiving a large one-time donation that allowed him to finish stuccoing the main building.

Gerard, Maureen and several volunteers moved over 140 cats and dogs from all of their temporary housing in Las Vegas out to Chloride. It took months to get everyone transported, and once everyone had been settled in, the sanctuary was full to capacity.
