Mission Statement
Highlands County Action for Animals
exists
to provide a centralized resource for issues concerning
animals in Highlands County, Florida, as well as to promote
compassion towards all animals.
This website is dedicated to:
- Providing information to help reduce pet overpopulation
by encouraging the spaying and neutering of companion
and feral animals.
- Promoting the adoption of shelter pets in part by occasionally
placing ads in local newspapers that point to this website's
Adopt A Pet page, which provides links to local adoption
organizations.
- Alleviating the conditions that lead to pet abandonment
through the listing of pet-friendly rental housing and
pertinent links to information for renters, rental managers,
and landlords.
- Providing links to resources dealing with pets,
animal welfare / animal rights, and wildlife.
Get Involved
"Never underestimate the power of a small group of
committed people to change the world. In fact, it is the
only thing that ever has." — Margaret Mead, anthropologist
HCAFA encourages everyone who is concerned about animals
and the environment to become involved with local rescue/
environmental organizations, either as volunteers or financially
through donations of
money or
materials. For contact information, please see the Adopt
