Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter

A nonprofit group called FOWAS (Friends Of Watsonville Animal Shelter) is devoted to assisting the animals in Santa Cruz County.

Serving the Santa Cruz County, Santa Cruz City, Scotts Valley, Watsonville, and Capitola, the Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter is a non-profit Joint Powers Authority (EIN 90-0039494).

The unincorporated parts of Santa Clara County, the cities of Gilroy and Morgan Hill, as well as stray and abandoned domestic animals are all taken in by the County of Santa Clara Animal Services Center, an open-intake facility.

We offer treatment and medical aid to harmed, mistreated, abandoned, and young animals. We also pull at-risk animals out of neighborhood shelters.

Thousands of cats have been rescued, assisted, and adopted out to devoted families by Town Cats. As advocates for all cats, it is our mission to lessen the suffering of stray, unwanted, abandoned, and feral cats in Santa Clara County.

A reputable organization, Homey Pet, offers finding shelter for all kinds of animals online. We are here to assist in finding homes for the animals in shelters.
