The Austin community has made huge strides in the no-kill movement, becoming the largest no-kill city in the country within less than a year of the plan.

February 2017 marks six years of Austin’s no kill status. Austin Pets Alive! has played a critical role in achieving this status by developing innovative and comprehensive programs that serve key demographics of animals typically euthanized in a shelter setting (for example, large dogs that need behavior support, puppies with parvovirus).

Austin Pets Alive! has saved more than 40,000 cats and dogs from euthanasia and our numbers continue to rise.

Thank you for supporting Austin Pets Alive! as we continue to rescue the lives worth saving in Central Texas.
