Dear friends,

C.A.R.E.4Paws just turned 16 years old and the numbers reflect just how much we can accomplish when we all work together!

The best part? We have so much more to celebrate…

  • We have launched a Capital Campaign for a Pet Refuge, which will support pet families experiencing critical, temporary life transitions.
  • Our clinic team cares for 1,500 pets every month in our mobile units.
  • As many as 78 cats and dogs were altered during our August 17 Spayathon in collaboration with Santa Barbara County Animal Services.
  • Matching grant funds are still available —donations toward spay/neuter services are doubled up to $25,000!
  • We are expanding our support for unhoused pet families and planning for additional Pet Resource Centers to provide greater access to pet food.

Thank you for helping us grow, achieve and dream big for pets and their families. Together, we’re building a stronger, more compassionate community for all.

We invite you to read our September 2025 e-newsletter!
