🐾 Rescue and Respite Drop-Off Services

We proudly accept animal drop-offs for both rescue and respite care. Our priority is ensuring that every animal receives the safety and compassion they deserve.

We believe it’s far better for an animal to come into our care—where they’ll be looked after and given a chance to thrive—than to risk being abandoned on the street, where they could suffer or die, especially in the case of pregnant cats or kittens.

Whenever possible, we encourage the community to bring animals to us instead of surrendering them to kill shelters. Our mission is to provide a safe haven and a path to a better life for every animal in need.
