Sasha
Read heartfelt stories of rescue, and share your rescued animal stories with others.
I went to the animal shelter to adopt a cat. While looking around, i was not connecting to any of the cats. Then Sasha came to sit next to me on the bench. When i scratched her back and she arched up and started purring, i knew she was the one for me. At first she was very shy; when i first brought her home, she hid for 3 days and would not let anyone near her. Now, 4 years later, she sleeps with me every night and loves to snuggle all the time. I love her so much and am very thankful that she came over to say hello that day.

Over four million animals are put to death each year in the U.S. alone because they are abandoned and unwanted.

Funding for food and care is paid by site sponsors and distributed to animals in need by Rescue Bank, The Fund for Animals, the Petfinder Foundation, North Shore Animal League, International Fund for Animal Welfare,and other worthy animal rescue organizations supported by GreaterGood.org.
In addition to clicking the purple "Click Here to Give - it's FREE" button, visitors can help more by shopping in The Animal Rescue Site store. With each item purchased, shoppers generate funds for the feeding and care of animals in shelters and sanctuaries.
