The President Speaks
Since HART has moved off the streets and into an actual building we now call
home, our adoption rates have increased! Since we’ve opened our center, we are
now able to take in more animals and find good homes for them. We are now able to house more animals than
before, we’ve picked up more volunteers, and the community support is vital. We wish to thank all of you who have welcomed us, giving us encouraging
words, and brought us gifts of much needed supplies and monetary donations. Our center is a happy place, where animals roam freely, have lots of toys to
play with, and get lots of attention from many visitors. People love to visit
and sit in the comfortable areas to play with the animals, and the cats love it
too!
Our Mission
Our mission is to eliminate the surplus animals from being born.
Through this
relentless pursuit, we will reach the point of balance between supply and demand. In
return, animals will become more valuable and therefore, hopefully, treated with respect.
Our goal is "Pound Prevention"
with homes for all.
Spaying and neutering is paramount;
with fewer animals in the pounds, fewer must die.
BIRTH PREVENTION = POUND PREVENTION.
Our philosophy is ensuring quality of life to all living
creatures, both feral and domestic.
By controlling the reproduction rate of neighborhood strays, we are relieving some of
the burden from the county pound, consequently saving money for the local governments and
taxpayers. By "cleaning up" the local neighborhoods, HART also helps prevent
tom-fighting, spraying and the spread of diseases from the feral and stray animals to family
pets. Pet overpopulation is a huge cost to the taxpayers, to
the lives of the animals, and to the hearts of the people who care.
HART is a non-profit, tax exempt, all
volunteer humane service organization dedicated to people and their pets as well as the
homeless and stray animals who need our help. No salaries are paid. We are incorporated
under the auspices of the Secretary of State of California. HART is fully tax-exempt under
the U.S. Treasury Department section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue code. Our tax
identification number is 77-0018508.
