Tampa Bay Strays Animal rescue in Tampa, FL

Tampa Bay Strays, Inc. is an all-volunteer 501 (c)3 non-profit corporation founded in 2022 and located in Tampa, Florida. We are dedicated to providing a safe, temporary, loving home for lost, abandoned, stray or otherwise homeless cats and dogs in the Tampa Bay area. We provide medical care, vaccinations, spay / neuter, medical procedures, and testing of animals in our care, and facilitate the adoption of animals in the care of our foster volunteers to permanent, loving homes. As a no-kill organization we do NOT euthanize unless medically necessary under exigent circumstances. We promote spay / neuter practices to provide longevity of good health, disease deterrence and control the overpopulation of stray cats and dogs. As we are not government subsidized, we depend on the generosity of private donors and corporate sponsors who share our altruistic beliefs and goals.
