City Lights Foundation is a non-profit originally founded to better respond to the animal welfare needs of Morgan Hill, CA. The foundation’s first 5 dog cases began with a call from the local police department asking for help. Animal welfare needs are great. The foundation’s mission is to make a difference. Please help make difference become a volunteer, a foster home or adopt a homeless pet today.
Due to our limited resources and lack of available foster homes, we currently cannot accept any stray or owner surrendered animals.
If you've found an animal, please make a report with your local animal shelter. Its owner may be looking for it. Also, get the animal scanned at a shelter or local veterinarian, as it may have a microchip. You can also try searching on Craigslist, or creating a post describing the animal you've found.
If you absolutely cannot keep the animal, try contacting another local rescue, or do your research and take it to a very low to no-kill animal shelter, humane society, or SPCA. If the owners do not come forward, many of the Bay Area shelters work with local rescue groups to re-home adoptable animals.
Create an alert and get notified with newly adoptable pets that meet your criteria.

Additional adoption info
Our adoption process is designed to help us connect animals to families.
First we ask that you fill out an adoption application. This helps our pet advocate volunteers understand your expectations and lifestyle towards the best match.
Second, we schedule a “meet and greet” where we try to get the animal and the potential adoptive family together, on neutral ground, to see if it’s a good fit for both animals and people.
Third, if the fit is good, a home visit will be arranged. The purpose of the home visit is to insure the home is prepared to provide a safe and happy life for a long time.
Finally, sign a contract with a representative and take your new pet home.
Our adoption fee is $300. The adoption fee is to defray costs of spay/neuter, vaccinations, cost of transport, food and supplies, and any other medical costs.
