PetConnect Rescue

About this campaign

While there is nothing cuter than a little kitten or puppy, leaving them homeless and abandoned is not. Despite the enormous progress that has been made since the 1970s, there is still a huge problem of pet overpopulation in the United States. Shelters are particularly overwhelmed during the spring and summer when cats and dogs breed. Longer periods of warm weather exacerbate the problem and prolong the time frame for breeding. If left unaltered, kittens and puppies will grow up to produce multiple litters that will most likely find their way into already overcrowded and underfunded county shelters across this country. Pregnant moms will be dumped there, too. These will be the lucky ones. They have a chance to be saved; however, many more will not. Others will be left to fend for themselves on the streets or much, much worse.

Organizations such as PetConnect Rescue work endlessly to answer the desperate calls of these shelters, which rely on us to ensure that these animals escape euthanasia. We take as many dogs and cats as space can provide and make sure that animals entering our foster care are spayed or neutered, are vetted, and find responsible, loving homes. Otherwise, there would be little to no hope for them. To continue our mission, resources are key! These valuable resources include fosters, donors, volunteers, and supplies. Please help us care for these precious animals and send a message to our communities.
