Would You Like to Make a Donation?

If you would like to make a donation, please click on the button above to make a donation on-line using PayPal. Any size donation from $5 on up would be greatly appreciated to help with spaying/neutering, medicine, vaccinations, and supplies.

If you cannot contribute financially, we also collect aluminum cans, tin cans, and printer cartridges for recycling to raise money for the animals. Please contact us to pick up any of these items.

Do You Need Help?

Since we do not euthanize animals to make room for more, we are limited on space. If we cannot take in your pet, we suggest that you put an ad in the American Classifieds (formerly known as the Thrifty Nickel). We will also put your pet's picture on our web site with the animal's information. We do not have any volunteers to go take pictures of pets right now, so we need you to be able to send us the pictures through e-mail.

News

On July 15, 2004, we achieved 100 actual homes in 10 months since we started on Petfinder in September 2003.

Since September 2003 we have had 1027 adoptions (6 kittens, 5 cats, and 8 dogs adopted that are not posted). All animal returns are accepted and placed back on our adoptable list. We also have grown to 8 foster homes.

February 24, 2004, we had enough generous donations to send 32 male cats through the neuter scooter event in Longview, Texas.

February 22, 2005, and March 1, 2005, we had enough generous donations to send 3 male cats and 42 male cats through the neuter scooter event in Longview, Texas, making a total of 45 male cats neutered.

Who We Are

My husband and I began to actively help animals in February 2000. We achieved our tax exempt status as of August 6, 2003, with five on the board of directors.

We are a definite no kill rescue group. Animals stay with us until they are adopted or pass away. We do not euthanize any animal unless it is severely sick and suffering. If an illness should occur, we do whatever we can to treat the animal. We do not euthanize any animal if we think it is unadoptable as I have heard some rescue groups do.

We have two veterinary clinics that help us, and If you would like to make a tax deductible donation to help us care for these animals, please look at the following:

      Gresham Veterinary Hospital
      11187 CR 168
      Tyler, TX  75703
      903/894-3033
      Checks made payable to Dr. Will Hadden and put Tonya Griffith's Animal Rescue for the memo; they will credit it to our account.
      This account is currently at a $0 balance.
      Gresham Veterinary Hospital has micro chipping available.
      Hawkins Animal Clinic
      1129 N. Beulah, P.O. Box 1037

      Checks made payable to Hawkins Animal Clinic and put Tonya Griffith's Animal Rescue for the memo, and they will credit it to our account.

We do not have a post office box, so if you would like to write a check to Tonya Griffith's Animal Rescue, Inc., please mail it to the Gresham Veterinary Hospital.

Adopting a friend

Please click on the name of the animal you are interested in to see who you need to contact about that pet. We operate out of several foster homes and post pictures for people needing help when we are full. The initials of the foster home or the person we are posting for are listed before each animal's name.

Come Visit Us!

We do not advertise our physical address to prevent people from dropping off animals. We prefer people to call first for help. Dropping off or dumping animals can lead to their death.
