If our organization cannot help you
with animal placement or adoption,
"Doing rescue work means loving, learning and accepting each situation. It's exhausting at times and heartbreaking at other times; but mostly rescue work provides a genuine warmth in believing that a permanent and loving home awaits each rescue."
Christie Cooper
If you can help give an unfortunate animal
a second chance,
We need you!
We are looking for future foster homes.
or call 724-287-8334.
I thank you and the animals thank you!

What would I do without you, my precious, furry friend?
Part mischief, but all blessing, and faithful to the end!
You look at me with eyes of love; you never hold a grudge. . .
you think I'm far too wonderful to criticize or judge.
It seems your greatest joy in life is being close to me. . .
I think God knew how comforting your warm, soft fur would be.
I know you think you're human, but I'm glad it isn't true. . .
the world would be a nicer place if folks were more like you!
A few short time is all we have;
one day we will part . . .
but you, my pet
will always have a place in my heart.

2009 - We rescued and adopted 250 animals.
2008 - We adopted out 240 stray
and abandoned animals.
2007 - We did 230 successful adoptions.
2006 - Final tally of successful adoptions
was just over 300!
2005 - We have rescued, fostered and helped rehome
over 200 animals.
We couldn`t have done it without the help of the
foster homes, donors, vets, PetSmart, PETCO
and numereous other volunteers.
Thanks to all involved for making this a very successful year.
(The animals love it!)
A special Thank You goes to Rainbow`s founding President,
Joan Fiser.
After 15 years of service and dedication to these animals,
I am sure
there will be a great number
waiting to cross the Rainbow Bridge.
Waiting just for you,
to guide them thru.
In loving memory of all that have passed before us,
animal or human,
waiting for that special someone
to cross the Rainbow Bridge together.

God Bless.

God granted us these creatures
as companions for our soul.
They are here for us to care for, to enjoy, and cherish.
They are definately more fun to watch than television!
