Overview

Mission

Animal shelter

What it reported doing in 2025

Spay/neuter & necessary medical care. All feline's are spayed/neutered and vaccinated in our program. These expenses also include microchips, fiv/felv tests, medication and recover supplies, as well as emergency medical care such as: blood work, x-ray, ultrasound, hospital stay, etc.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 84% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
