Coco's Animal Rescue Efforts of Seymour (CARES)

Coco's Animal Rescue Efforts of Seymour (CARES) is a non-profit 501c3 organization run entirely by dedicated volunteers. Our mission is to provide temporary shelter to abandoned and surrendered cats and dogs until we can find them loving new homes. We have a comprehensive adoption process and take considerable time and effort to find good matches in responsible, committed permanent homes. We educate prospective adopters about the responsibilities and costs of bringing a pet into their homes and lives. We also do our best to break down the stereotypes of many "bully breeds". We work to end pet overpopulation and the suffering of unwanted animals by promoting and educating about spaying and neutering. Whether pulled from overcrowded shelters or surrendered by owners, the animals that come to us are cared for by a loving team of volunteers. Injured or sick animals receive veterinary care and all are spayed/neutered prior to adoption. They are socialized, exercised, talked to and hugged every day until they are placed in a home that will love and cherish them forever.
