WHO WE ARE

The Compassion in Action Foundation encourages kindness and compassion towards all living beings. We actively work to end the suffering of animals.

Our main purpose is to conduct animal cruelty investigaions. We also have a small network of foster homes, where we rescue, foster, rehabilitate and then find loving, permanent homes for unwanted abandoned, and/or abused/injured animals.

(We are NOT a kennel.)

FEATURED COMPANION ANIMALS:

QUINCY

---

Quincy is a beautiful, very happy, sweet, lovely 1 year old Hound/Beagle mix. She is spayed, fully tested and vaccinated and on monthly heartworm and flea preventative. Quincy is crate trained, LOVES to play and loves to play with other dogs. She is a wonderful girl who needs an active home where she will get a lot of walks and exercise.

Quincy requires a fenced yard that does not have chainlink fencing, as she has learned to climb chainlink! A 6 foot wooden fence would be great. She is young and has a lot of energy, so Quincy would love to live with people who are "active and fun!!

Quincy gives fabulous kisses, likes to chew on sticks and carry around pine cones in her mouth. She is fun and sweet!

If you are interested in fostering or adopting Quincy, please contact Compassion in Action at : CompassionAction@aol.com

Thank you!

Thank you for caring about the animals!!!

ADOPTING A FRIEND

Adopting a dog, cat, or other type of pet is one of the most fun and rewarding experiences you could ever have. However, adoption is a big commitment! It is important to think the decision over very carefully, keeping in mind that adopting a pet is a 10 to 20 year commitment. Our adoption process emphasizes this commitment. We try to slow things down a bit so that potential adopters have time to be sure they are ready for a new pet. Our adoptions take place in a 4 step process:

1) Adopter fills out an application, which includes providing references. NOTE: We require a veterinary reference and personal references. You MUST have a adequately fenced in yard to adopt a dog. We do not adopt out animals outside our local area in North Carolina.

2) An adopter makes arrangements to visit the pet he/she thinks they would like to adopt .

3) We do a home inspection ("HOME CHECK"). If an application is approved, we STRONGLY encourage you to first foster the animal, to make sure he/she is the right animal for you and your home.

4) After a week or two of fostering (if you choose to foster first), adoption is the next step! An adoption agreement is signed. There is an adoption donation reqested, which may vary, depending on the animal). We may have to charge a higher adoption fee for some animals due to their veterinary bills (we do rescue from puppy and kitty "mills", where the animals are in horrendous condition when we get them. Our vet bills are usually up in the thousands!!). Thank you for understanding. We rely soley on the kindness of your donations. Donations are to be made directly to one of our veterinarians.

Everything we do is in the best interest of the individual animals we help. Therefore, we reserve the right to deny adoption by any party we feel would not provide a suitable home. "Suitable" is based solely on the Compassion in Action Foundation's experience and judgment. Everything this organization does is based on the individual animals' happiness and well being.

TO ADOPT AN ANIMAL YOU MUST SIGN A CONTRACT AND TO HAVE THE ANIMAL SPAYED OR NEUTERED WITHIN 30 DAYS, IF THEY ARE NOT ALREADY ALTERED.

You must supply us with documentation from a vet noting that the animal was altered.
