Rescue FAQs

We're a nonprofit organization funded by donations. Although we're state-licensed, we don't operate a sheltering facility. Instead, we recruit foster caregivers who take the animls into their private homes until forever homes are found. We support/sponsor humane education aimed at developing more compassion, better understanding, and a deeper appreciation of the diversity of animals in our world. We also work to advance community understanding of the need for animal protection and advocacy.
Mostly Johnson County, Iowa; sometimes we are able to provide help to contiguous counties.

Additional adoption info

Our adoption fee is $65 and we have a 24-hour waiting period after adopters have been approved. Our Adoption Contract is downloadable from our website.

Our cats have been screened for FeLV, FIV, and internal parasites. Dogs have been screened for heartworm. All animals are current on vaccinations and spayed/neutered according to age.
