START provides spay and neuter services in low-income communities, giving families the support they need while protecting animals from the suffering and needless deaths caused by overcrowded shelters and life on the streets.
End the Cycle Before It Starts​​
Every year, millions of dogs and cats in California face euthanasia because shelters are overcrowded. The most powerful way to change this is simple: spay and neuter.
At START Rescue, we’ve already funded 16,000+ surgeries, preventing tens of thousands of unwanted litters. But we can’t stop here. Every $100 spay/neuter surgery means:
-
A mom spared from endless pregnancies.
-
Puppies and kittens never born into suffering.
-
Shelter kennels freed for animals who truly need them.
You can be part of this solution. A single donation creates a ripple effect — preventing suffering before it begins and saving lives for years to come.
Like and follow our rescue to see the impact your support creates. Together, we can end unnecessary euthanasia in California.
