Pet Rescue Association
The primary goal of Pet Rescue is to assist owners in finding suitable new homes for pets they can no longer care for. This is achieved through providing information or by directly taking in and caring for the pet until a new home is secured. We operate a kennel cattery housing over 50 dogs cats awaiting adoption.
