OC Animal Care strives to save the lives of all healthy, treatable, and manageable dogs and cats in our community. We work very closely with our nonprofit rescue adoption partners, other local animal shelters, and our volunteer foster caretakers. We are also fortunate to have the support of Noble Friends Foundation for OC Animal Care who fundraises on our behalf.
We are working to save healthy, treatable and manageable dogs and cats by:
Promoting low-cost spaying/neutering through our network of Orange County low-cost spay neuter clinics
Increasing adoptions and shelter visitors by hosting monthly in-shelter adoption events
Participating in large scale adoption events in our communities
Providing public education at community fairs and festivals
Reducing euthanasia by increasing adoption partners and foster families
Increasing the number of animals protected against rabies and other diseases with low-cost monthly vaccination clinics
Encouraging responsible pet ownership through expanded public awareness and humane education
Actively promoting our animals and services using social media and traditional media outlets
We do not euthanize for space or time. Sick animals may be moved into isolation, placed in temporary foster care or promoted to our network of nonprofit rescue adoption partners. Animals that have behavior problems or are not doing well in the shelter may be placed in foster care, but are generally promoted to our network of adoption partners as well. We work very hard with our adoption partners, who take animals from us to evaluate, rehabilitate and place into new forever homes.
