Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter provides animal rescue, regulation and humane care in Santa Cruz County. It rescues and assures safe, temporary shelter, veterinary and humane care for approximately 7,000 stray, unwanted, abandoned, mistreated, neglected and injured animals each year. The shelter also provides 24-hour animal rescue service and is Santa Cruz County’s only full service, open-admission animal shelter; this means it won’t turn away any animal that shows up at its door.

Unconditional Love Animal Rescue’s mission is to rescue animals from euthanizing shelters, in some cases saving animals with less than one hour to spare. Currently it primarily rescues cats, and is looking to increase its dog foster homes so it can include more dogs. Over 1,300 animals have been rescued by UL since its inception–many with severe medical issues that needed extensive vet care.
