AnimalSavers cares for the medical needs of homeless animals. Our main goals are to treat the disease of overpopulation, which kills more dogs and cats than any known illness, and find ideal homes for abandoned and neglected animals.
- We rescue lost, abandoned, and mistreated dogs and cats from streets, schools and parks and from high-kill public shelters and place them in permanent, loving homes.
- We educate the community on the intrinsic value of all animals, whether owned or unowned, and advocate for no-kill shelters throughout the country.
- We sanctuary unadoptable dogs and cats for their lifetimes.
Activist Alert:
Please sign
our petition supporting AB 1634, the California Spay/Neuter Bill. Mass slaughter is no way for a civilized society to curb an overpopulation problem. We, Californians, must do all we can to pass this groundbreaking bill to humanely curtail the negligent overbreeding of mixed breed dogs and cats.
April's High Paws Go to:
Ken Bottroff
,
for his life-long dedication to rescue animals and volunteering on their behalf. He will be deeply missed by those he left behind. With a life of service to the helpless creatures everywhere, including AnimalSavers and the Placer County Friends of Animals, we know he got to heaven before his toes even got cold.
Medical Emergencies
Marveille Needs a Cat Scan Marveille, which means miracle in French, arrived January 31, 2009 from a kill shelter, where he'd been turned in. The staff fell head over heels in in love with him for his winning personality, indominatable spirit, and, let's face it, movie star good looks! This dear puppy, approximately 7 weeks old, has no strength and little control of his back legs. Initial x-rays indicate spina bifada, but our vet recommends further testing. Indeed, he may be a possible candidate for corrective surgery so he can walk, play and even run like a normal dog. Fund raising goal:$2,000.00.
If you're interested in fostering, adopting or donating for Marveille's medical care, please email us at animalsaverscal@gmail. To donate using paypal, please use our button below. And thanks in advance for being an AnimalSaver.
Finding a New Home for a Pet:
If you would like our help in finding a new home for your rescued friend or absolutely must re-home your own furry or feathered companion, we can list your animal for adoption on our website. We will screen the applicants for you to find the best possible homes. The fee is either:
- $35.00 per animal and you receive the adoption fee, usually $85.00 for a cat and $200.00 - $400.00 for a dog. (All animals must be spayed and neutered and up to date on shots.)
- $45.00 refundable deposit per animal and we keep the adoption fee when we place the animal in an ideal, permanent home. (Adoption deposits are returned after the trial period.)
To use this service, contact us first at animalsaverscal@gmail.com or call us at 916-992-9970 for further details.

"How to Find Homes for Homeless Pets" from the Best Friends Animal Sanctuary. (Available in Adobe Acrobat in order to read and print this invaluable, 12 page booklet. Acrobat is available free at the Adobe site for Windows, Mac, and other platforms.)
The great majority of animals in shelters do not make it out alive. All rescue groups are overwhelmed with many more calls and requests for help than they have volunteers, space and foster homes to handle. If you have found a stray or you know someone who is considering turning a pet over to the local shelter, this is the perfect do-it-yourself how-to-rescue booklet downloadable at no cost from Best Friends Animal Sancutary's website. You are probably the only shield that animal has between life and death. Please be an "animalsaver," and do the right thing.
Purchases that Benefit AnimalSavers
Veterinary insurance is a great way to help handle rising medical costs and expensive bills. We think ShelterCare Pet Insurance is by far the best, with its low deductibles, clear coverage limits, and high reimbursement rates for any and all vets you select (even specialists.) Additionally, when you purchase it through the link on the left, ShelterCare will donate $10.00 to us for pet food.
