    There are a lot of rescues that deal with dogs and/or cats locally. These 'smaller' rescues (as opposed to placed like Best Friends, Pet Finder, shelters) sometimes are known at their own vets. When I worked at a vet people ALWAYS asked if we knew of anyone with dogs, cats, puppies, kittens, etc. We had a rolodex for rescues in the area.

    Going to your vet, wherever you live, is a great way to help rescues!!

    A lot of rescues will contact vets and put up fliers. This is a great way for them to find homes for their rescues.

    PetCo and PetSmart and like stores also have weekend rescue "fairs"....this is an excellent way to find a critter to love.

    GREAT idea, Karen. You'd be surprised at how many people DON'T have any idea how to get a rescued or quality bred animal.

    Wisconsin (Rescues & Shelters)

    My local Purebred Cat rescue that I have kept a close eye on is the Pure Bred cat rescue. They are located in Kenosha Wisconsin they deal with all purebred cats. Siamese, lots of persians and himalayans and they also once in a great while they will get Devon Rex, Sphynix and Ragdolls. The people at this rescue are absolutely amazing and extremly easy to work with. They really do an awesome thing here. Many of the animals are from Bad Breeder seizers. It would be amazing if they could be placed onto this list.

    I help my local Humane Society I fostered and I adopted my youngest Cat Paris from this shelter. Its located in Eau Claire Wisconsin

    Very helpful and kind faces at this shelter. And I may be a little bias but I was lucky to get the sweetest little kitty from this shelter also
