The Castoff Pet
Rescue team has decided that we are ready to take our next big step: building
our dream shelteR/rescue facility. Since 2006 we have rented a small space in
Blairsville, GA, where we can accommodate only 21 dogs and 30 cats. Right now we
rescue around 800 pets every year and our goal is to have a facility where we
can rescue between 2,000 – 2,500 pets every year.
WHY DO WE NEED A NEW
SHELTER?
Approximately 6.5
million companion animals enter U.S. animal shelters nationwide every year. Of
those, approximately 3.3 million are dogs and 3.2 million are cats. Each year,
approximately 1.5 million shelter animals are euthanized (670,000 dogs and
860,000 cats).
With our new shelter,
Castoff Pet Rescue, a non-kill shelter, will be able to save more lives of cats
and dogs in our community and help them to find new homes.
Our dream is to build
the best place for animals to call “almost home” while they wait for their
forever home.
