In its own words
Our focus is providing rescue to dogs and cats in both rural and urban areas. We have a spay and neuter program which we make available to memebers of the community that are in need of assistance to care for their pets. We bring in stray abandoned and surrendered animals into our care. Once in care the animals are provided with all necessary vetting and then adopted into loving homes. The vast majority of our funds are spent on providing the necessary vet care to our cats and dogs.
