Animal Rescue of Anderson Valley (AVAR) is a non-profit 501(c)(3) animal rescue organization committed in several ways to the homeless canines and felines of Mendocino County, primarily through rescue and rehoming, TNR, spay and neuter, transfers from Menodocino County Animal Control and "educating" new adopters. AVAR has no physical shelter; animals are fostered in homes of volunteers throughout Mendocino County and Sonoma County until they are ready, physically and emotionally, for adoption. Mobile adoptions occur at Petco in Santa Rosa every Saturday, noon to 4pm and in other locations within Mendocino County such as Rainbow Ag in Ukiah throughout the week. All animals are neutered/spayed, vaccinated, & microchipped. Some of our super special cats and dogs are put up for adoption with additional support/treatment as "special needs" companions. Some are placed through breed rescues, Marin Humane Society, SFSPCA and other rescue entities with AVAR paying required fees. AVAR offers support to free roaming/community cats through our Trap, Neuter & Return (TNR) program. AVAR also has a great 'Oldies But Goodies' senior to senior cat adoption program. If you are interested in adopting, fostering, volunteering, need more information on any program or are interested in donating, please call, 707-621-2912 or 707-895-3785 or email andersonvalleyanimalrescue@yahoo.com.

Meanwhile, get yourself down to Rainbow Ag and see the latest wonderful cat waiting for a lifetime loving home. Perhaps yours?
