START Rescue's mission is to end the killing of adoptable pets, and to prevent cruelty and suffering for all animals. START Rescue conducts large-scale rescue-transport missions saving pets from overflowing "high-kill" shelters, coordinates critical spay/neuter efforts in underserved areas, funds pet retention and pet pantry programs in Southern California where pets are being surrendered to shelters in record numbers, and rescues pets from neglect, abuse, and/or abandonment. START's lifesaving mission prevents the euthanasia of over 1,500 pets per year and allows over 1,650 pets per year to be fixed, which prevents countless unwanted litters from being born. Since START Rescue launched in 2011, over 16,193 adoptable pets have been saved from euthanasia, and countless more have been spared a lifetime of suffering and neglect. We are committed to ending the killing of adoptable pets and moving toward a society in which all beings are healthy and happy. START has been named "2022 Top-Rated" by GreatNonprofits, and was awarded Guidestar's "Platinum Seal of Transparency". We are always in need of volunteers, transporters and fosters! Saving animals takes a HUGE village. Please email kaja@startrescue.org to find out more. Thank you!
