Your Donation Saves Lives!
We count on your donations to continue our life-saving work. As a non-profit organization with no paid staff members, our dedicated volunteers work tirelessly on behalf of local animals. And our efforts are paying off. Our innovative programs have been credited with reducing the number of animals who are euthanized at our local animal control facility. Our dream is that one day, no adoptable animals will be killed in area shelters. We thank you for helping us realize this dream.Visit the donation page to see where your money goes.

Peanut is 5yrs old and his eyes appear a little different, so we are not sure how well he sees. Peanut is cute and likes to have a hut for sleeping and a pile of hay for foraging.

Medical Assistance Fund 

This Fund is to help pet parents who have an unexpected pet illness that they can't afford.  If you need assistance, please contact us at 410 880 2488 #3 or info@animal-advocates.org. 

The rising cost of vet care drives both animal surrenders and financial euthanasia.  We are able to assist only a small fraction of people who ask for help.  Click to make a donation.

Unfortunately, we have been priced out of assisting with emergency care and are no longer able to help with cases that require urgent attention and//or a trip to an ER.  If you aren't sure please feel free to contact us to discuss, with the understanding that we are not available 24/7.
