Saving Paws Animal Rescue of Kentucky
|
SparKy is located in Daviess County, KY we are a non profit, no-kill, animal rescue. We take a unique approach to animal rescue through the utilization of foster homes to house the animals. These foster homes provide the animals with a loving environment in which their needs are fully met. They also allow the foster parents to assess the temperament of the animals, as well as their individual needs, thus ensuring that the best permanent home possible is found. Mission Statement Members of SparKy have made it a mission, to join in with rescue groups and shelters across America, by focusing on our local community to reduce the number of animals killed each year. SparKy’s goals are to educate the public about the importance of spaying and neutering pets, to educate the public about responsible pet ownership, and to rescue and re-home homeless adoptable pets. We have also started a pet food pantry to help supply local food banks so that they also cover pets needs too.
