After spending over 1,000 days in a shelter in Los Angeles waiting for a family, Rex lost all hope.
When potential adopters came, he stayed hidden in the corner, having given up on ever being loved. Each day became another heartbreak because no one wanted to give him a home.
Rex’s story isn’t unique. It’s the reality for millions of others waiting for a home that may never come.
Those who never find a home get the needle: the fatal injection.
Some animals, like Rex, will spend years desperately hoping for a family. Others may only spend a few days in the shelter before they are killed.
Across the U.S., about 6 million dogs and cats enter shelters every year, and tragically, nearly a million never make it out.
All of this suffering is due to the overpopulation of dogs and cats.
Each day of waiting shatters their spirit a little more, making it harder for them to trust, hope, or even dream of a loving home.
That’s why we’re fighting to build a world where every dog and cat has the chance to be loved by a family.
Our mission is bold and achievable: To end the #1 cause of suffering and death for dogs and cats — overpopulation — by developing a permanent-lasting birth control cookie that will only need to be eaten one time, and it will in effect spay or neuter — without surgery.
We are a small grassroots nonprofit charity, carrying out work that pharmaceutical companies should be doing — but they refuse.
We receive no help from any of the drug companies, no grants from the government, no help from any dog food companies or other large companies.
Instead we rely 100% on small donations. Small gifts from people who care, like you.
We are dedicated to ending this global problem — and a gift of any amount will help — no gift is too small.
For just $5 a month, you can join our mission to protect homeless animals from needless suffering. Every dollar brings us closer to a world where every stray animal knows safety and love.
Donate $5 a month and watch your generosity transform lives.
Together, we can end the nightmare dogs and cats face waiting for a home that never comes.
We can make “home” a reality for all dogs and cats.
