Best Friends Animal Society is a nonprofit, membership organization building no-kill programs and partnerships that will bring about a day when there are No More Homeless Pets. The society’s leading initiatives in animal care and community programs are coordinated from its Kanab, Utah, headquarters, the country’s largest no-kill sanctuary.

The sanctuary, at the heart of the national parks of southern Utah, is a refuge for up to 1,700 homeless dogs, cats, horses, rabbits, birds, and other orphan animals, who come from shelters and rescue groups all over the country for the special care they can only get at Best Friends.

Thanks to the expert care of staff and dedicated volunteers, most of the animals are soon ready to be placed in good new homes. Others, who are older or sicker, or who have suffered extra trauma, find a home and a haven at the sanctuary for the rest of their lives.

This work is made possible by the personal and financial support of a grassroots network of members and community partners across the nation. In 2009, Best Friends celebrates its 25th anniversary.

Thank you for being part of this work of love.
