Hawaii is paradise, but not to our homeless animal friends. Kohala Animal Relocation and Education Service or KARES is a nonprofit, 501(c)3 organization founded in 2009 and is now serving the people and animals throughout Hawaii Island. KARES is dedicated to providing rescue of abandoned and abused dogs and cats, temporary shelter in foster care homes and finding adoption homes for our island homeless pets. In response to the island-wide overpopulation of dogs and cats, KARES advocates spay/neuter (S/N) to humanely control the pet population and prevent the continued cycle of neglect, abandonment and abuse of unwanted animals. KARES conducts S/N surgery clinics in community locations underserved with affordable S/N services. This is a positive step to impact the welfare of companion pets preventing the death by euthanasia of healthy animals in public animal shelters and preventing the unfortunate development of generations of feral animals resulting from uncontrolled population dynamics. Your contributions can help make Hawaii a paradise for loving pets needing homes.
