An Organization Dedicated To Supporting Local Pets In Finding New HomesFrequently Asked QuestionsWhere do we get the Kittens?Where do we get the Cats? Where do we keep all the Animals? What to tell your kids about rescuing an older animal Why Are Our Animals So Expensive? Where do we get the Kittens?We have kittens all year round due to our program called, "Spay and
Return" which offers citizens a "free" spay for their cat when
they move their litter of kittens through our organization for adoption. The
kittens are spayed and neutered when they are two pounds (8-9 weeks), tested for feline
leukemia and feline aids, vaccinated, de-wormed for roundworms, tapeworms and
hookworms, and de-fleaed with Advantage and we use the AVID microchip to protect
them if entering the United States Shelter System. (The microchip is implanted
under the skin and identifies the owner. All animals impounded as strays are
scanned for microchips) As a reputable organization, and according to the January 2000 California State Law, we spay and neuter every kitten at 2lbs. prior to adoption. (8-9 weeks) Where do we get the Cats?We work with local people just like you that we call "Good Citizen
Rescuers". Everyday people find animals hungry and pregnant in their back
yards seeking food and safety to bear their young. People who contact us and
participate in helping are supported with information, animal traps, and the
rescue vet services the animals need. (spay/neuter, blood testing, deworm,
de-flea, microchip) Besides shelter death row rescues, we represent responsible citizens
in placing their Pre-loved Pets in new
homes. There are many reasons a family may need to find a new home for their
pet, but the most common are divorce and a lack of animal-friendly landlords.
Also, some animals don't like new babies, a family member is allergic, or
someone has passed away. Where do we keep all the Animals?We do not have a kennel. Our animals are in private homes. Because most of our animals are in foster care, we may know more about our animals than if you went to a shelter. If you would like to become a foster parent, please contact us today! Foster homes help save animals lives! What to tell your kids about rescuing an older animalEveryone loves kittens and puppies, but they all grow up to be cats and dogs! Older animals are dying for your help. Ask your kids, if they lost their dog or cat wouldn't they want someone to open their heart and home to save their lost pet's life? To change the next generation, we need to Ooh-Ooh-Ooh and Ah-Ah-Ah when we see an older animal for adoption! Discuss with your children how sad the animal may look because it has lost its family. Encourage your kids, wife or husband to save a life this holiday season. Adopt an older animal! Why Are Our Animals So Expensive?Because we are a pro-quality life organization, we spend a lot of money on vet services to save lives and deliver healthy animals to the public. Donations have just not been not enough to pay for the high cost of veterinary medical services necessary to operate with a pro-quality life mission. We thank you for paying high adoption fees and allowing us to continue our work. We offer a "free" spay to citizens who have "o-p-p-s litters when they turn over a full litter of kittens to organization. Our high veterinary bills come from treating as necessary, rather that killing sick and injured animals, we save their lives. We test for feline leukemia, feline aids, spay or neuter, vaccinate, de-wormed for roundworms, tapeworms and hookworms, and de-fleaed with Advantage all animals as well as using the AVID microchip to protect them.
