We rescue animals predominantly kittens that have been abandoned orphaned picked up as strays or surrendered by their owners. We care for them and shape them into loving pets that we then place up for adoption. We are strong advocates and participants in the TNR Trap Neuter Return program to control the feral cat population in our communities. We are based on the west side of the Metro Phoenix area in Goodyear AZ
