4 Paws 1 Heart

Animal rescue in St. Clair Shores, MI

4 Paws 1 Heart is a 501c3 (non-profit) organization which funds medical treatment for abandoned, abused, and stray companion animals. The animals we help come through the doors of veterinaries, rescue organizations, and individual good Samaritans. Very often the rescue organizations, who we assist with medical bills, will take over the recovered animal and place him in his forever home. But, because of the overwhelming number of abandoned/stray cats and dogs, most rescue groups are full and cannot assist the many individuals who have taken it upon themselves to save an animal--most of whom are cats and kittens. Consequently, 4 Paws 1 Heart has decided to be the conduit for these individual rescuers who were assisted by 4 Paws 1 Heart with medical bills and provide them with a outlet which can promote the animals needing a forever home.
The animals on this page are either under the care of 4 Paws 1 Heart (who will be identified as such) or with individuals who have taken it upon themselves to find forever loving homes for animals they have rescued. All animals on this page received medical treatment (vaccinations, testing, vetting, spaying/neutering, etc.) funded by 4 Paws 1 Heart. 4 Paws 1 Heart takes no responsibility for any of the animals under the ownership of the individual rescuer and each rescuer makes the final decision as to adoption policies. It is always recommended that a donation (pay it forward) be made for any adoptions."
