About AnimalSavers

We are an animal rights group who rescues animals primarily from high kill shelters and sanctuaries unadoptable, feral and senior dogs and cats. Although we make every attempt to assist independent animal rescuers, we are rarely able to take in owner relinquished animals. However, we do offer courtesy listings online for the public for a nominal fee of $50.00 and will screen the applicants for you. Alternatively, we charge a $50.00 deposit which we return in full when we adopt out your animal through us. With the latter option, we keep the adoption fee.



Some of our adoption fees for dogs are higher than others. Our prices for cats have not been raised in eight years, but our fees for some of our dogs have increased substantially. Although we are an all volunteer organization, the cost of providing for the medical needs of our pets and sanctuarying unadoptable ones for their lifetimes is raised nearly exclusively from our adoption fees. As a strictly no-kill organization, we do take care of animals that the public finds "unadoptable" because of their senior ages, temperaments or special health issues such as blindness, deafness, or other maladies. In other words, the most adoptable of our pets fund the least. Our actual cost for each animal with us averages out to around $3,500.00 per animal. That is the true cost of being a genuine no-kill organization. But we think the animals are worth worth every cent.

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.
