P.A.C.A. has no shelter facility and relies on an organized network of foster parents who graciously take animals into their homes and hearts until permanent homes are found. The number of animals we can assist depends on the foster care and financial resources available.

People's Anti Cruelty Association /Albuquerque Animal Rescue (PACA), was founded in
1973 and is the oldest no-kill animal rescue group in New Mexico. Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate
and rehouse homeless dogs and cats. PACA has no shelter facility and relies on an organized network of
foster parents who graciously take animals into their homes and hearts until permanent homes are found.

RESCUE: No-Kill means that healthy, adoptable animals are not destroyed because they are homeless or
to make room for another animal. The No-Kill concept allows PACA to offer an alternative program for
homeless, abandoned, sick, and injured animals. The number of animals we can assist depends on the
foster care and financial resources available.

REHABILITATE: PACA devotes resources to correct an animal's health or behavioral problems. For
animals that arrive suffering from severe degenerative illness or injuries that permanently compromise the
animals quality of life, PACA uses humane euthanization to end their suffering. About 1% of the animals
we receive need this service.

REHOUSE: No-Kill rescue requires short and long term temporary housing for animals. This is best met
by foster caregivers, not traditional kennel facilities.

PACA is committed to helping solve the greater problem of pet overpopulation. By using and advocating
strong sterilization policies, implementing adoption programs and promoting active community
