Act 2 Rescue

Animal rescue in Riverside, CA

Act 2 Rescue started with a very sick kitty who needed help. With community support his life was saved and I found my calling. Animals are rescued from difficult situations, orphaned kittens, and found animals that are unable to find home after attempts are exhausted.

We try to avoid cages when possible. All of our animals live in foster homes for individualized care and socialization. Our adoptees are cared for medically and behaviorally. When you adopt from us, you become part of the A2R family. We will support you through transition of your new pet into your home and offer behavior support for the first stages.
