We are presently looking for foster homes & people willing to take in nursing mothers (feline/canine), puppies/kittens without mom, and/or felines/canines that may need foster homes for various reasons (i.e. injured, stress ?).

Please consider if you could open your home for a dog or cat or possibly a litter of kittens that needs extra love.

HELP DRIVE DOWN PET OVERPOPULATION!

Everyone in Massachusetts who loves animals can now help end overpopulation with one of these new plates! The animal friendly plates, which feature a silhouette of a dog and cat and the phrase “I’m animal friendly,” are available from Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles.

The cost for the plate is $40, $28 of which will benefit local spay and neuter programs. The remaining $12 is a one-time only fee to cover the cost of manufacturing. Upon renewal, the entire $40 will benefit spay and neuter programs.

To order an animal friendly plate, visit your local full service branch of the Registry of Motor Vehicles or order online at www.mass.gov/rmv. For more information, please visit MAC’s website at www.massanimalcoalition.org.

We receive no state or federal funding and rely on your generosity to save these homeless animals. The thousands of animals we have saved from certain death thank you !

If you or a friend are looking for a family pet, someone who's love and commitment is an assured constant, please come by.

Help us improve the sad statistic that only 18% of animals in homes today come from shelters !
