No Kill Lehigh Valley

Mission Statement:
Our goal is to end the killing of adoptable and treatable companion animals in the Lehigh Valley by 2010. We will do this by advocating for the implementation of policies and programs in accordance with the No Kill Equation that will reduce population growth and increase rates of adoption and retention of companion animals.

No animal should be killed just because it doesn't have a home.

OPERATION CATSNIP A HUGE SUCCESS! Congratulations to our team of veterinarians, vet techs and volunteers for a fabulously successful day - over 300 cats spayed and neutered in one day! Special thanks to the Center for Animal Health & Welfare in Easton, Lehigh Valley Animal Hospital in Kuhnsville, Country Doctor Veterinary Hospital in New Tripoli and Drs. Hess and Fanelli for donating their time and facilities to this effort. Hundreds of kittens will not be born this year as a result of their dedication.

If you need to have your cat spayed or neutered and you missed this event, there are other low cost alternatives available. Go to our low cost spay/neuter page for information.

Please help spread the word. Every litter we can prevent is another step towards a no kill community!

BE SURE TO LOOK AT OUR GALLERY. LOTS OF WONDERFUL ANIMALS HOPING FOR A HOME AT THE CENTER FOR ANIMAL HEALTH AND WELFARE IN EASTON. CHECK OUT THEIR PAGE FOR HOURS AND INFORMATION.

Our goals are to:

Establish an independent low cost/no cost spay/neuter clinic in the Valley.

Provide support for non kill groups that are struggling to care for their animals.

Continue tactical planning to promote the programs of the No Kill Equation.

Develop a comprehensive Valley wide Trap/Neuter/Return program for free roaming cats.

This website is a work in progress. Our most recent posting is a GOOD NEWS page so that we can share exciting positive information from shelters and rescues in our area. We also recently added a page which lists local spay neuter programs and provides pertinent information. And we have added a section on charitable giving so that you can look into the financial situation of national and local groups before deciding to whom to send your money. We have also added pages for local groups with basic information and links to their websites.

Be sure to take a look at our galleries. We have one for the Center for Animal Health and Welfare which showcases lovely adoptable animals. We will be happy to post a gallery for any other no kill organization or rescue. Just contact us at nklv@webspawner.org. We also have a Good News gallery which lets you look into the faces of those that have been saved. Don't miss it. To view pictures, go to the bottom of the page and click Gallery.
