Review for Blind Cat Rescue & Sanctuary Inc, St. Pauls, NC, USA
I have sponsored some of the cats at Blind Cat Rescue and Sanctuary and have made memorial donations for my cats. This is a wonderful Sanctuary who takes in and cares for cats who would otherwise be unadoptable due to blindness and illness. They have a great staff and volunteers to provide for the little ones. Alana Miller is a hero.

Have been donating for several years. They give great care to cats no one would otherwise want.
Review for Tabby's Place: a Cat Sanctuary, Inc., Ringoes, NJ, USA
I am so glad I discovered Tabby's Place. It is a sanctuary that rescues cats that would otherwise be unadoptable from a shelter, particulaly given the time and financial constraints of shelters. Most of the cats are elderly or have medical conditions that require monitoring, medications, and attention. They have volunteers to provide for cats that are well enough to leave the shelter and still be well cared for. Tabby's Place has recently initiated a new program to care for feral cats. They spay and neuter them, provide dental care, medical help, and then have volunteers who look after them upon release. In a world that is so often dark and uncaring and looks at even healthy animals as disposable, Tabby's Place is a bright light. Urge support of this sanctuary and its occupants.
Review for Blind Cat Rescue & Sanctuary Inc, St. Pauls, NC, USA
This is a wonderful rescue and sanctuary. They save the ones who would not have a chance of finding good homes from shelters and take in those from shelters that would euthanize them. Most of the cats are blind or vision impaired, or they may carry the feline immunodeficiency virus or the feline leukemia virus. The little ones are well cared for, have food, medical care, many toys, as well as attentive staff and volunteers. I have to applaud organizations to care about the ones this society would otherwise find undesirable or disposable. More power and donations to them!
Review for The American Anti-Vivisection Society, Jenkintown, PA, USA
I really like this charity because they not only fight all animal abuse, but many of those they are defending are the ones, such as rats and mice, that many people consider as "varmints" and disposable, that do not arouse the sympathy that cats and dogs, etc., do. The AAVS also stayed its course when some other groups shifted their focus to pet animals, particularly when the medical/scientific community fought against and help defeat anti-vivisection laws. Now they fight to get rats, mice, birds, and marine mammals, who may be the objects of experiments, reclassified as animals. Yes! The Animal Welfare Act does not define them as animals and thus they do not fall under the "protection" of the United States Department of Agriculture, the overseer of the law.
Review for Mercy For Animals, Hagerstown, MD, USA
This is one of the great animal rights/welfare groups. They have been documenting the unspeakable cruelty to animals occurring in factory farms. They have revealed, on video tape, the horrors that the written word cannot do justice to. Their job is dangerous and difficult, and they have given us a picture of animal cruelty that many people cannot believe is happening and that some people do not want to see. But their efforts have inspired others to change their diets and lifestyles and to support this organization. They are the advocates the the most ignored and most brutally treated animals. They deserve everyone's help and contributions.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
I can't think of any changes I would make. I would just urge them to continue what they are doing. If they aren't already working with legislative groups to offer their documentation, maybe that would be a suggestion.
