We’re not bragging when we say we work hard to rescue and re-home every animal in our program. It takes lots of brawn, brain, time and talent. Our small team is currently trying to work our magic on 120+ homeless pets.

Chrome is home! Ryan, a lacrosse player and coach, came all the way from Savannah to adopt this cutie. We think they make a good duo and wish them a happy life together! Thanks for adopting!
Fred is doing great! From the moment he got to my apartment, he seemed super happy and right at home. It was as if he’d been here his whole life! He is always looking for some pets and a cuddle, and just purrs his heart out! He helps out around the house as well –…
