Kitten Season is Here - Foster Homes Needed!

Kitten Season is here and we are getting calls to help with orphaned kittens and homeless mother cats with kittens. You can help us save lives by becoming a foster volunteer. We provide training, supplies, vet care and support; you provide the love and a safe, quiet space to raise your feline family. A spare bedroom or den is ideal. If you live in Monterey County or Santa Cruz County, please click here for more information about this fun and rewarding volunteer opportunity!
Looking for a Home
 

Ten-month-old Bobby had his share of bad luck. First, he was born with an abnormality in his front leg that made walking difficult. Then he came down with a skin condition that made him itchy and uncomfortable. To top it all off, his family left him at the night drop at the Salinas Shelter. Thankfully, things are now looking up for Bobby - his skin has healed and he's had orthopedic surgery to correct his leg. What this big, goofy pup needs now is a home of his own! Read more about Bobby.

AFRP Spay/Neuter Voucher Programs
AFRP offers low cost spay/neuter vouchers for cats, kittens and small dogs under 20 pounds. Why small dogs? Our local shelters report that Chihuahuas and Chi-mixes make up nearly 60% of the local shelter dog population, causing severe overcrowding. Spaying and neutering is not only healthier for pets, it saves the lives of shelter animals by preventing unwanted litters. The first hundred people to apply for small dog vouchers will receive them at no cost. Click here to read more.

What AFRP Does

AFRP fills a niche in our community by rescuing animals that will not survive in the shelters; providing medical care (including spay/neuter), behavior training, and finally, placing the animals in good permanent homes.

These are typically shy, senior, underage or un-weaned animals, those in need of minor and major medical attention, pregnant or nursing animals and those who have just been overlooked and been there too long.

We have a lifetime commitment to every animal that comes into our care.

Our ability to help them is directly related to the funds available. Click here to help them.
