Our Mission

Our goal is to save as many companion animals as possible. We accomplish that on three important fronts. Transport, Spay/Neuter and Education.

With CASA Transport, we help existing animals in overcrowded shelters by relocating them to our rescue partners in northern states that have available space and waiting adopters. We focus on Middle and West TN to help the rural shelters and pounds that have little adoption traffic. The animals in these areas would often perish if not for transport. We currently help 46 different shelters/rescues/pounds in 32 TN counties.

With CASA Clinic, we operate a low-cost spay/neuter and vaccine clinic that serves area shelters and rescues and low-income community members. Our clinic has partnered with local shelters to offer community feral cat surgery days and also surgery days for owned animals in specific counties. Our combined efforts of sterilization and transport are changing the animal welfare landscape in Middle TN and beyond by dramatically reducing the number of unwanted animals in this region.

In November 2024 we launched CASA PAWS (Promoting Animal Welfare Stories) in which we endeavor to provide elementary schools throughout Middle TN and beyond with engaging children's books that cover the core components of animal welfare. Education is an essential aspect of changing attitudes and improving conditions for animals, and by starting with the next generation, we hope to change the future landscape of animal welfare in TN.
