Animal Trustees of Austin was founded by concerned citizens desiring to help lost, abused and abandoned animals in Austin and Travis county. Being a volunteer organization, ATA is made up of members from all walks of life, that contribute widely-varied skills, but are united by one common interest -- the welfare of the animals. The ATA rescues animals from the local shelters and operates low cost spay-neuter clinics. Animal Trustees has placed over 2000 dogs and cats in permanent adoptive homes, and has spent over $175,000 on medical care above and beyond the minimum to care for special needs animals. Their good work is far too broad to explain here. Click on the logo above to learn more. Mail: P.O. Box 26742, Austin, TX

Austin
Pets Alive! (APA!) was founded in 1997 as a
private-sector support organization working with government
entities, other nonprofits and the public to stop the killing of
Austin’s adoptable dogs and cats. We have been implementing
small scale projects to help Austin’s pets, pet owners, and
shelters since 1997. Our leadership team has demonstrated success
in nonprofit development, government, law, marketing, and
fundraising, as well as veterinary medicine, animal behavior
evaluation and training, and in the development of animal
fostering and adoption programs. In addition, we have a wonderful
volunteer organization and are always looking for additional
support in this area. |

Austin
Siamese Rescue Austin Siamese Rescue cats come from a variety of backgrounds. Some faced death at the shelter, while others came from abusive and neglectful households. Still others were treasured companions of guardians who could no longer care for them. What they all have in common is a need for a forever home, where they can live their lives as the happy, pampered cats they all deserve to be.

TLAC:
Town Lake Animal Center- A great place to find that new pet
or to search for your lost pet. However, they do still
“euthanize” animals at times so try every other resource to
place any pet that cannot be cared for. The pet adoption
center and offices are located at 1156 West Cesar Chavez between
Lamar and Mopac. The new Austin Animal Center
http://www.ci.austin.tx.us/health/pets/
is scheduled to open in Nov 2011. Williamson County Humane Society - The Humane Society of Williamson County (HSWC) is an "open-door" shelter committed to accepting every stray, unwanted, injured or abused animal, in addition to young, healthy puppies and kittens. This is NOT a no-kill facility and they do euthanize animals so try every other resource to place any pet that cannot be cared for
