“At Loving All Animals we help connect people with pets. All of our dogs and cats are provided care at our shelter or in a loving and caring foster home. We accept animals needing our help from the public and government and private facilities. We support efforts to prevent the euthanasia of adoptable and treatable dogs and cats. We strongly support programs that are accessible and available to the public emphasizing spay and neuter services, adoption, reuniting lost pets, and owner retention services.” Due to our kennel configuration, we are only able to accept smaller sized dogs that are approximately under 25 pounds. Also, we can only accept kittens and cats if we have available feline fosters. Our kennel permit limits the number of animals we may shelter at our Coachella location.

Roughly 6.5 million animals enter shelters each year, of which nearly 1.5 million are euthanized.
Traveling Paws found this number so alarming we could not stand idly by. Instead, we aim to be the solution by relocating animals in kill shelters to adoption facilities across the West Coast where they can be safely adopted and live a quality life. We believe every animal deserves to find their forever home. TNR program is designed to control the feral cat population while promoting their health and well-being. Ultimately this program reduces unnecessary euthanization and decreases the spread of disease which improves their quality of life. We never release a cat that is unfit to survive in the wild. Feral cats are first humanely trapped by a Traveling Paws specialist. They are then taken to a certified veterinary clinic to be spayed or neutered. After making a full recovery the cats are released back into their natural environment.”
