Fading Heartbeats

How you can help

You don't need a big house or a lot of money. Most of these take one afternoon.

Foster

Fostering means taking an animal home for a while, often two to four weeks. The shelter usually pays for food and vet care. It frees a kennel and is often the difference between a date and a future.

Adopt

If one of these animals is yours, tap Foster or adopt on their page. It opens that animal's page at the shelter that has them, with the shelter's own steps.

Pull as a rescue

Registered rescue groups can pull animals directly. Contact the shelter's rescue coordinator with the animal ID.

Share

Many animals are saved by someone who saw a post from a friend. Every animal has its own page you can share.

How this site works

  1. Several times a day we read the public at-risk lists that shelters publish.
  2. Animals with a scheduled date are shown first, soonest on top.
  3. When an animal leaves the list we keep checking, and we never assume the worst. We never mark an animal as lost unless a person has confirmed it.

We are volunteers, not a shelter, and we don't handle adoptions. The shelter always has the final, current answer.
