The staff and volunteers at WBARS take great care and pride in what they do. The animals are provided with open living indoor/outdoor areas where they can live like in a home and interact with each other and the humans who come to visit them. The facilities are impeccably clean and they try to keep their facilities/program green to support the environment. As a no-kill rescue, the utmost care and love is given to every animal, each receives needed medical care and treatment, even in severe situations. Wild Blue is currently working to expand to help out horses, more dogs and cats, and I expect to see the same top notch quality and commitment I have seen for the past two years.

Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Animals, Wildlife Preservation & Protection
Mission: Wild blue animal rescue and sanctuary seeks to save the precious lives of cats, dogs and horses who are neglected, abandoned or surrendered and find them forever homes or provide lifetime sanctuary. The organization has a"no kill" philosophy. Wild blue supports people in our community by providing opportunities for emotional/physical healing through animal therapies.
Programs: Wild blue animal rescue & sanctuary took in 118 cats/kittens and found homes for 81% of them, took in 13 dogs and found all of them homes for a 100% adoption rate. Wild blue supported people in our community by helping their pets and by providing opportunities for emotional and physical healing through various activities involving our rescue animals. Wild blue provided equine assisted therapy to develop confidence and leadership skills in teenage girls, volunteer opportunities for people with autism and/or other disabilities who benefit from work with animals, a venue for teen court youth needing community service hours for minor infractions of the law. Wild blue also provided trap/neuter/release services for community members needing help with feral cats on their property, thereby helping to control cat overpopulation in the most humane way possible. Our snip and chip program for pet animals ensures people adopting pets have an affordable way to spay/neuter and microchip their animals; this programs helps reduce pet overpopulation and return lost pets to their humans.
