Our Mission
At VALOR Animal Rescue, our mission is deeply rooted in two core principles: education and population control.

Established with a passion for creating a community where every animal receives the care it deserves, VALOR Animal Rescue is a beacon of compassion.

Our Services
Sterilization Programs
For Feral Animals
Recognizing the unique challenges posed by feral cat populations, our Trap-Neuter-Release (TNR) program takes a humane approach. By stabilizing and reducing the numbers of free-roaming cats through TNR, we not only control the population but also enhance the overall well-being of these animals.
Capture, Rehab, and Adopt
Capture
In cases where animals require additional care and rehabilitation, VALOR Animal Rescue provides a Capture, Rehab, and Adopt program. Our experienced team employs compassionate capture methods to ensure the safety and well-being of animals in need.
Rehab
Once in our care, animals go through a comprehensive rehabilitation process. This includes medical treatment, behavioral assessments, and the creation of personalized care plans. Our goal is to give each animal the best possible chance for a happy and healthy life.
Adopt
After successful rehabilitation, animals are made available for adoption. VALOR facilitates the adoption process by carefully matching animals with loving forever homes. By adopting from VALOR, you become a part of our mission to provide second chances and create lasting connections between pets and their adoptive families.
Community Education
At the heart of our organization is a profound commitment to education. We actively engage with the community to raise awareness about responsible pet ownership, the importance of spaying and neutering, and humane strategies for managing feral cat populations. Through workshops, outreach programs, and partnerships with local schools, we aim to instill a culture of empathy and understanding.
