Animal Shelters

Pets Alive in New Mexico! is a 501(c)(3) non-profit with the goal of assisting New Mexico in joining the expanding, forward-thinking No Kill companion animal welfare success that is occurring throughout America, where upwards of 99% of lost and abandoned pets and community cats are given a second chance to find a loving, permanent home.

Street Cat HUB's primary goal is the reduction of feral cat and colony populations through the use of compassionate alternatives to culling, such as TNR (trap, neuter & return). Jayne Sage, the creator of Street Cat HUB and current board president, started catching neighborhood cats in 2001. In 2009, she launched a trap loan scheme to offer services beyond of her own neighborhood. A startup program run out of Jayne's property received funding from Best Friends in 2012. By design, Best Friends ended the initiative in 2014.

In early 1996, not long after they relocated to the region, Lee and Sophia DiClemente had a vision for a No-Kill animal facility in New Mexico. Every year, New Mexico euthanizes thousands of stray, abandoned, and lost animals.

An all-volunteer, no-kill, foster-based cat rescue organization based in Albuquerque, F.A.T. KATZ is committed solely to improving the lives of cats and kittens.

Animal Humane New Mexico, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that was founded in 1965, provides care for more than 10,000 dogs and cats who are homeless or in danger of becoming so each year. Since 2010, all healthy animals in our care have been adopted out. We never put animals to sleep based on their age or length of stay. At Animal Humane, we provide every companion animal with exceptional veterinary, social, and emotional assistance and love. As a private, nonprofit shelter, we get no money from the city, state, or federal government; instead, every dollar is wisely earned or raised.

In foster homes, homeless dogs and cats are rescued and given temporary, high-quality care while waiting to be adopted permanently.

NMDOG is a hands-on rescue that helps New Mexico's chained, mistreated, and abandoned dogs. This small, all-volunteer, 501(c)3 non-profit, foster-based rescue, with its headquarters in Albuquerque, was founded in 2010 and has since impacted the lives of hundreds of dogs.

Unsterilized animals will only be released if they already have a valid intact permit or are from a county other than Bernalillo, Valencia, Torrance, Santa Fe, Sandoval, or Cibola.

The Bernalillo County Animal Care and Resource Center has an excess of adoptable dogs and cats, and the staff is in need of towels, small and big blankets without filling, washcloths, fleece blankets, and flat sheets that are either new or clean and in good condition.
