About Happy Tails Pet Sanctuary

Happy Tails was founded in July 1993 and became a 501(C)(3) non-profit in October 1993. Happy Tails began with six volunteers and has now grown to over 200 volunteers. HT is an all-volunteer run orgnaization.

For the past eight years, Happy Tails leased a space in a strip shopping center for a cage-free cat adoption center in East Sacramento. Take a look at a panoramic view of the center on HT website at www.happytails.org

HT bought a 3400 sq ft building on Folsom and 61st. St. and will open a large cage-free cat adoption center after the first of the year..

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.

What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?

When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.

So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
