Spay/Neuter Four American Pets at a Free ClinicIn the United States, more than 3 million pets are euthanized each year. Spaying or neutering companion animals makes sure the all-too-numerous population of unwanted kittens and puppies doesn't grow, and gives dogs and cats already in shelters the best chance for adoption; but for people already struggling to make ends meet, the cost of spaying or neutering pets may pose a significant obstacle for owners. Your gift of $28 funds surgical supplies and anesthesia for the spay or neuter surgery for four companion animals at a free clinic.

Care for a Street Animal in IndiaDespite some of the strictest animal welfare laws in the world, India teems with abandoned, neglected, and abused animals. Baby monkeys are taken from their mothers to be trained as street performers, then abandoned; cows and water buffalo are used for milk and labor, but turned loose or sent to slaughter once their useful life has passed. And the population of dogs and cats loose on the streets leads to the spread of animal diseases such as rabies. The Visakha Society For Protection and Care of Animals is helping hundreds of stray and abandoned creatures, and you can help. Provide food, shelter, and medical care for a cat ($15), a dog ($20), a monkey ($28), or a cow or water buffalo ($35), for an entire month.

Care for Two Rescued RabbitsEvery spring in the U.S., thousands of bunnies are purchased as live toys for children. Exuberant children and ground-loving, easily frightened rabbits are not a good mix, however. Once the child loses interest and the rabbit grows into adolescence -- including natural behaviors such as chewing, spraying, or digging -- many rabbits are destined to be abandoned on the side of a road. The Rabbit Sanctuary, Inc. exists to rescue and care for these rabbits, as well as ones rescued from laboratories and commercial breeders. $10 will help give two rescued rabbits a "Home for Life."

Help Raise an Orphaned MooseA baby moose and its mother have a strong bond, roaming through the forests as a solitary pair until the next calf is born. Because the moose's range covers almost all of Canada and extends down into the northern United States, there are thousands of deadly encounters between moose and cars each year, in addition to natural disasters such as fires or floods. $28 helps the Northern Lights Wildlife Shelter in British Columbia care for a rescued moose for one week, while $110 funds one month of care.

Protect African Animals from PoachersDespite laws ensuring their protection, many species of African wildlife are still being hunted illegally. Under-equipped and under-staffed African wildlife law enforcement agencies are often outmaneuvered by sophisticated crime syndicates operating freely across national borders. Non-governmental organizations, like the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW), are stepping in to help bridge that gap. $42 funds one week's salary for an anti-poaching ranger in Africa, helping reduce illegal trade of animals on a continent-wide basis.

Protect American WolvesOnce common throughout North America, wolves have recently been reintroduced to areas where humans and livestock also live. While wolf predation on livestock accounts for less than 1% of livestock losses each year, when wolves do prey on livestock it can mean certain death for a wolf – or even an entire pack. Defenders of Wildlife is leading efforts to reduce livestock losses, foster goodwill among the ranching community and save the lives of countless wild wolves. You can help, starting at just $16.00.

Hide, Perch & Go Habitats for Shelter CatsShelter life can be scary for cats. The transition from home to shelter (or shelter to home) brings many changes in sights, smells and surroundings, often leaving cats fearful and stressed. $15.00 funds three specialized "Hide, Perch & Go" boxes for shelters, in which cats can hide or perch to view their surroundings. Shelters say the cats who are lucky enough to have a Hide, Perch & Go box are friendlier and more likely to be adopted -- and the box even converts to a carrier for the journey to the cat's adoptive home.

Care for a Shelter Animal with Special NeedsShelters and sanctuaries that serve special-needs animals have a rewarding, yet difficult, role. Their residents include dogs who need wheeled harnesses in order to move around, blind horses, cats with feline leukemia, and so many others. The beautiful thing about animals with special needs is that they do not know they are disabled. With some extra attention and, in some cases, thoughtful devices, they can live as fully as any other animal. $15 funds a week of care for a special-needs animal.

Protect Haiti's DogsBefore the earthquake, there were no animal welfare agencies in existence in Haiti -- no one doing the necessary work of caring for an estimated 300,000 street dogs.

Now you can help. $14 provides primary health care, vaccinations, and deworming medication for one dog in Haiti.
