Sassy Paws Angel Rescue

Sassy Paws Angel Rescue is a small Incorporated 501(c)3 animal rescue organization ran by a few animal loving, hard working volunteers. We are located in the Catawba/Lincoln County area of North Carolina. We work within our area & several surrounding counties to help as many animals as possible, Specializing in mostly canines. Approximately 5 to 7 million companion animals enter animal shelters nationwide every year, ...and approximately 3 to 4 million are euthanized (60 percent of dogs and 70 percent of cats). Shelter intakes are about evenly divided between those animals surrendered by owners and those picked up by animal control. Our mission is to try and save as many of these helpless animals as possible through rescuing, fostering until a permanent home is found, networking for adoptions, and educating the importance of spay and neutering. Our rescue takes in animals that are in urgent need and many are saved from high kill shelters. We do not have a facility at this time but utilize foster homes to provide for the care and safety of our rescues. All animals in our care are completely vetted, evaluated, socialized, and taught basic obedience. Our rescues are also taught house training and crate training when time permits to prepare them for their forever homes. We work closely with many animal shelters, humane societies, and other rescue groups. Our mission may seem impossible with the large numbers listed above but we will make a difference one animal at a time & if all animal lovers could join together in this fight we can make a huge difference! We will never give up & do all we can to educate the world on the importance of animals' lives and until God's creatures are treated fairly. The animals don't have a voice of their own, we have to speak for them and protect them all!! *Angels for the voiceless "Until they all have a home"*
