Responsible Pet Care of Oxford Hills, Inc.
Norway, Maine
Cause Description:
We are a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that sponsors a true no-kill
shelter for homeless cats and dogs, located in Paris, Maine. We
strive to improve the quality of life in the Oxford Hills area by
example and promoting the responsible way to treat pets.
Our shelter is equipped to provide treatment for 85+ cats at any one
time, and is always full to capacity. We take in and adopt an average
of 300 cats per year. All cats leave the shelter healthy,
spayed/neutered, FeLV/FIV tested, vaccinated and treated for internal
and external parasites. Sadly we turn many cats away due to lack of
space. Our goal is to increase the adoption rate, allowing us to take
in and save more cats. We hope that Petfinder.com will help us reach
that goal. As a true no-kill shelter we do have a higher percentage of
special needs cats than most other shelters. Some cats have been
with us for years and we will continue to care for them until they are
adopted.
99% of the funds needed to support the shelter and carry out our
mission come from fund-raisers and donations from private
individuals.
At this time we do not have enough volunteer support to allow us to
take in dogs and puppies at our shelter. However, we do work with
other shelters to help dogs and puppies in need. We often assist in
coordinating placement of pets that can remain in-home until an
alternate home can be found. When possible, we also work with the
victims of abuse to provide temporary housing for their cats during
transitional periods.
