Animal Cruelty

It is always heartbreaking when an animal is surrendered to a shelter—even more so when he or she has been in the same home for a long time. Animals, like people, grow attached to their family and surroundings, and pet relinquishment is never easy. In fact, we have an entire team dedicated to helping pets stay in their homes, but we understand that sometimes it is simply not an option.

Animals rescued from abuse are often fearful and shy, but past experience has taught us that the right home can go a long way for victims of cruelty. In the case of a cat named Curry, a first-time adopter proved to be just what the doctor ordered, and now these two are both experiencing the singular joy of human-pet companionship. Here is Curry’s Happy Tail.
