We're Driven By These Facts
There are approximately 40,000 unaltered cats & dogs in Marion County

An unaltered female dog can produce an average of 16 puppies a year. An unaltered female cat can produce an average of 15 kittens per year.

 

Marion County has limited resources for low-income pet owners

Pet owners often are forced to rehome their pets when they cannot afford to care for them. Lack of financially feasible veterinary care is one of the top three reasons for pet surrenders.

Shelters and rescues are consistently at capacity

Although our community has joined the No-Kill movement, there is still an abundance of homeless pets with nowhere to go.

You’ll Fall for Fergus!

July 7, 2020
Looking at his gorgeous black and white fluffy coat now, you’d never guess the sad past this sweet cat has endured.

His claws were overgrown and had actually become embedded in his paw pads, causing him excruciating pain with each step. He was also extremely underweight and sick. But, he had a will to live and an unbelievably sweet personality. The clinic staff did... Keep Reading
