We are a not-for-profit organization run out of our home. We take in death-row shelter dogs or other dogs in dire circumstances, and FIV+ feral cats, rehabilitate them and adopt them out to forever, loving homes. At times we take in the occasional bird or reptile, such as ducks or turtles.

Additional adoption info

If you are interested in one of our animals, we will have you fill out an Adoption Application. You must list two references and a veterinary reference. We set up meet and greet times (as many as you want) and if you application is approved and you still want the animal, we transfer ownership to you. We ask for an adoption fee that ranges per animal but is usually between $50-100 for a dog or cat and $10-50 for a reptile or bird. The money goes directly towards the vet bills the animal has.
