Mission
Statement for Holly's Place, Inc.
Holly's Place is formed to:
1) rescue special needs cats and dogs primarily
from shelters and
a) encourage a foster care network for these and other animals
in need;
b) re-home animals in a permanent adoptive family environment
when possible;
c) maintain a spay/neuter policy for all Holly's Place animals,
unless deemed a health risk by a veterinarian.
2) maintain a spay/neuter assistance fund, including
a trap/release program for feral cats
3) serve as an outreach and networking resource
center focusing on:
a) Education: organizing and presenting regional seminars,
conferences, and workshops
b) Information: disseminating resource materials including
brochures, booklets, web site guides, CD's, and videos
c) Exploration: finding ways to bring grassroots rescue groups,
humane societies, and individual rescuers together to work toward
common goals;
Holly's place will humanely euthanize animals
only in cases of failed health, extreme pain, or when other
health/behavioral issues make it impossible for an animal to
enjoy a reasonable quality of life. Holly's Place shall never
euthanize animals to control population.
It is the duty and obligation of all Holly's Place
committee chairs and employees to uphold this mission statement.
