Rescue FAQs

We are Northern California's first No Kill dog and cat rescue and adoption shelter. As a 501(c) 3 non-profit animal shelter, we transfer in dogs and cats from public shelters where they are in danger of being euthanized due to space or financial limitations. We then provide them with the best possible care and enrichment until we can help them find their forever homes.
