Fuzzy Friends Rescue believes that animals, as living creatures, are entitled to a quality life, respect and compassion. Since humans domesticated animals, we have a moral and ethical responsibility to care for them. Our mission is to provide shelter, food, medical treatment and love to our community’s animals that are abandoned, unwanted, or otherwise in need. We want to instill in our community an awareness of these animals. We encourage and promote responsible pet ownership. Fuzzy Friends Rescue is a non-profit 501(c)(3) animal welfare organization that cares for homeless and unwanted animals in a life-care environment. We never euthanize an animal to make room for another, and we care for all those we take in until they are adopted. We try to place our animals in new homes with caring families in a timely manner. Some reside at Fuzzy Friends Rescue only a few days, others a few weeks, and sometimes it takes months of care and rehabilitation before they are able to go to a new home. For the harder-to-place animals, their stay may be a year or more. Unless they have developed an incurable disease or have displayed persistent aggression, each and every animal has a home at Fuzzy Friends Rescue until they can be found a permanent, loving home.
