Ohio Animal Shelters/Rescuers 

Each day 10,000 humans are born in the U.S. - and each day 70,000 puppies and kittens are born. As long as these birth rates exist, there will never be enough homes for all the animals.  Each year, in this country alone, millions of healthy, adoptable cats and dogs are killed because there are not enough homes for them all. An estimated 15 million dogs and cats must be killed each year in this country because no one wants them. They are abandoned, abused, neglected, and unknown by many people.  Many people don't realize they can find a good pet at their local shelter or animal rescue.  

These animals have originally come from a variety of sources such as (but not limited to): puppy (pet) mills, pet stores, backyard breeders and people who no longer have time for them or didn't realize what all was involved in taking care of that kind of pet.  You will find puppies, kittens, adult cats, trained dogs, small animals, big animals, birds and more.  They are available for adoption at your local shelter or animal rescue group, right now!  In many cases there is absolutely nothing wrong with these animals.  The previous owners just could not keep them for whatever reasons.  Many people don't understand that having a pet is a life commitment for the life of that animal.  Some people can no longer keep their pets, due to life changing issues in their own lives.  Help save a life and adopt a pet today.  Many animals don't have much time.  Visit your local animal shelter or rescue today!  

Some of you are probably saying that the animal shelters/rescues are too strict about adopting their pets.  These organizations CARE about their animals and want to make sure that all animals are going to a good forever home!  There are reasons why they have rules and restrictions.  They are not in it for the money.  They are in it for the animals and future parents(owner's) best interest.  

Unfortunately there are way too many pets that we cannot help or save, but you can help by adopting, donating, volunteering and spaying/neutering your pets!  A shelter's dream is to stop euthanizing a healthy animal because he/she did not find a forever home.  Help your local shelter reach that dream.  

Shelter Wish Lists: Listing of shelter's wish lists in various areas.  Find out how you can help your shelter.  Chances are your shelter may have the same items on their wish lists too.  

URGENT NOTICES:

Urgent notices are notices that these animals do not have much time and will be euthanized if not adopted soon.  Please help make more room in the shelter by adopting a loving pet today!  Also, help by spaying/neutering your pets so that their offspring don't end up on death row.  This is only a small listing of animals needing help now, please contact your shelter on how you can help.  And remember to Spay/Neuter your pets so that their offspring don't end up getting abused, neglected or on Death Row.
