Nonprofit animal welfare in Virginia

For every living thing.

We help families keep their pets, find homes for cats in our care, and get injured wildlife to the people who can heal them.

Keeping pets and people together

Money shouldn't be the reason a family gives up a pet. If you're in Central Virginia, ask us first.

Pet food assistance

Short on cat or dog food this month? Tell us what you need and we'll do our best to cover it.

Request food

TNVR help

Trap, Neuter, Vaccinate, Return. Community cats get fixed, vaccinated and ear-tipped, then go back home so the colony stops growing.

Wildlife transport

Found an injured bird, rabbit or other wild animal? We carry wildlife safely to permitted rehabilitators.

For wildlife help after hours, contact a permitted wildlife rehabilitator directly at dwr.virginia.gov/wildlife/injured/rehabilitators.

What fostering looks like

You provide a quiet room and daily care. FELT covers the rest.

  • FELT covers approved vet care, food, and litter
  • You send a quick update with weight and notes each week
  • Kittens usually stay until they're big enough to adopt
