Rescue FAQs

Animal Advocates is a nonprofit humane organization dedicated to helping control the overpopulation of animals through spaying and neutering; to rescue, rehabilitate and re-home those who have been abandoned, neglected or abused; and to provide proactive programs and educational outreach in our local communities. The purpose of Animal Advocates is to prevent the suffering of pets and their offspring from ending up on the streets or in shelters.
We serve the greater New Bedford area and all surrounding cities/towns.

Additional adoption info

If you are interested in adopting a pet, you would first need to call or send an e-mail to set up a time to meet with the pet and a representative of our organization to see if said pet would be a good match for your family / lifestyle. Once you have met with us, we will give you an application. After the application process is complete we will go over our adoption contract and adoption fees.
