Helping animals move from care to home.

Every animal deserves to be seen for who they are, not just what they have been through.
Words from our community.

Robert Ferber, President Mary Jo and Hank Greenberg FoundationWe have been so fortunate to work with Healthcare for Homeless Animals. Their compassion and love for animals is evident in everything they do. We consider ourselves lucky to work alongside such a wonderful team of people who are constantly striving to improve the health and wellbeing of homeless animals.
DVM Rachel Wallach Oaks Veterinary Urgent CareWhen I first met Brooklyn, she had come from a tough background and was in desperate need of medical help. Thanks to Healthcare for Homeless Animals, her life was saved. Healthcare for Homeless Animals funded the critical care she needed to recover and thrive. I adopted Brooklyn from the shelter, and now she lives the happiest life in a loving home. I'll forever be grateful to Healthcare for Homeless Animals for giving Brooklyn a second chance and bringing such joy into my life.
Tina Hobbs AdopterHealthcare for Homeless Animals is the reason our beloved cat, Artemis, was able to become part of our family. They funded the incredible care and medical treatment necessary to rehabilitate him after he sustained life-threatening injuries and illness. They gave him a second chance at a forever home and we are so lucky to be his people. Healthcare for Homeless Animals continues to be part of Artemis's lifelong team of friends and family today.
Katie Kantar AdopterAlexa came into the animal care system from a hoarding case in 2022, neglected for 6 years. After a year in the kennels as evidence, she was transferred to Agoura Animal Care Center in 2024. Healthcare for Homeless Animals funded nearly $5,000 for her vet care. Despite months with little interest, I fostered and then adopted her. Looking through hundreds of pages of medical records made me realize just how much Healthcare for Homeless Animals had done for her. Alexa has been my greatest support since losing my 16-year-old pug Maxim and is now living her happiest life.
Jeremy Faccone AdopterHealthcare for Homeless Animals is a unique organization that understands the importance of funding much-needed medical care for shelter animals that are sick, injured, neglected, or abused. We know that healthy dogs, cats, and other shelter animals that receive proper medical care are far more likely to be adopted. Malibu Coast Animal Hospital is grateful to work closely with Healthcare for Homeless Animals, partnering in their effort to help shelter dogs and cats receive the quality veterinary care they deserve so they can find their forever home.
