Pet Savers

Welcome to Pet Savers, Inc. in Shreveport, Louisiana. We are a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization whose mission is to rescue, protect, and place abandoned or unwanted pets and provide funds for neutering, spaying, and other veterinary care.

We provide a safe, no-kill alternative to Animal Control. Our space is limited, however, and if pets are not being adopted fast enough we won't have room to take on more.

Yes, MUD. It turns out there is a lot to running a no-kill animal shelter that has nothing to do with dogs or cats, except indirectly.

Because we let our dogs out 3 times a day to run and play, and because we are fastidious with our cleaning, we have MUD.

We "girls" are not landscapers or maintenance people, so we're asking for your help if you are.

So far, we've poured gravel in some areas (at great expense), and we've had a trench built in the front where water was pooling. Still, it's muddy all the time. Do we need more grass planted? Do we need something hardier than grass?

If you are an expert in eradicating mud, could you come out and take a look?

Thanks!

Most cats and kittens are boarded at the Pet Savers Shelter. Some are declawed.

Because many of the pets we save are strays, we cannot guarantee that they are house-trained, good with children, good with other pets, friendly or unfriendly. We simply don't know their history unless the owners gave them up for adoption. But we feel all animals are deserving of a home and safe place to live, regardless of how large or small, cute or homely, perfect or disabled.

We rely on donations to keep up our work. If you can help us with donations or by volunteering, we welcome you. If not, we hope you will tell others about us. And thanks for visiting our web site!

Note: Please do NOT bring pets to the shelter without prior permission.
