Our Mission at EBARR is to provide a home for animals in need. We believe in the health and welfare of all animals and we will never discriminate against breed or size. As part of our family; all animals will receive training, socialization, vaccinations, sterilization, love and affection. Euthanasia will be a last resort, and only when it´s in the best interest of the animal. We will also serve as an educational resource and an adoption option for the community. Our goal is to one day open an animal refuge in California for all animals in need of a home. We serve all of the Bay Area.

About East Bay Animal Rescue & Refuge
We are one of the few rescue organizations that will accept animals from the community.*
* " We must have space in one of our foster families, the cat or dog must get along with other animals and we require a $250 to $2000 donation for cats and dogs to off set the veterinary costs we incur. In addition, if your animal is un-altered we require an additional $100 alteration fee.
We use Foster Families exclusively. We do this by choice because we believe the animals are happier, better socialized and ultimately more adoptable by interacting with families and their pets. We do hold regular adoption hours at our weekend adoption sites and are available by appointment.

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.
