Tavi & Friends is a non-profit animal welfare organization dedicated to helping special-needs animals through training, holistic health care, rescue, adoption and foster care. Permanent, loving homes are found for each animal whenever possible; due to special-needs, some will not be adopted and have a home for life within our foster care network and, when available, in our Sanctuary. *501c3 status is pending
____________________________________________
Special-needs designates animals with specialized needs and who may require specialized care, and/or who may have difficulty finding a permanent adoptive home due to issues such as: inappropriate behaviors; age or wellness issues; orphaned; or are physically or emotionally challenged. This "uniqueness" may make them at higher risk for euthanasia, homelessness, and abuse. Our volunteers provide love, training, holistic support, socialization, and foster care as appropriate for each special-needs animal. Feral cats also have "special needs"; colony caretakers provide for the daily needs of their colonies, and rescue kittens or strays who may have been abandoned; for those cats who are able to be socialized, homes can be found.
