Forgotten Paws Animal Rescue - San Marcos Pet Shelter

Forgotten Paws Animal Rescue is a California 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization. Pets by the thousands are being left homeless for a wide variety of reasons. We do not judge how these adorable and deserving souls get into our arms, just that we welcome them. Our Commitment is to find them loving and lasting forever homes using the most responsible and safe rescue means possible. Our Passion is to rescue red-listed animals from high-kill shelters. These animals enter the shelters as strays or are surrendered by their families after tragic family events. All of these animals are very scared. We also have owners relinquish their pets into our care. Our Goal is to rescue these animals and prepare them for their new lives in their loving forever homes. We have Fosters and Adopters from all walks of life. Our network of volunteers assist us by fostering animals, helping at our adoption events, photographing our dogs and getting the word out on social media. We have no paid employees and do not receive funding from any government agency. All funds obtained by the rescue come from tax deductible adoption fees, tax deductible donations and fundraisers.
