CARA Site

CARA is a non profit "no-kill" animal rescue group located in Jackson, MS that provides food, shelter & care for hundreds of abused, unwanted, & stray animals.
CARA is operated mainly by volunteers & a few part-time employees. The expenses for our programs & services are supported by private donations from individuals, businesses, & fund raising events throughout the year. We receive no funds from the city, county, state or federal government.
The primary goal of CARA is the placement of our adoptable animals into loving, caring homes; thereby enhancing the bond between animals & people. Our services are designed to promote responsible pet ownership. By education, communities can learn the benefits of proper care & treatment of all pets & why spay/neuter is important.

I looked at all the animals in the shelter...the cast-offs of human society. I saw in their eyes love and hope, fear and dread, sadness and betrayal. And I was angry. "God," I said, "this is terrible! Why don't you do something?" God was silent for a moment and then He spoke softly. I have done something," He replied. "I created you."

Dogs are our link to paradise.
They don't know evil or jealousy or discontent.
To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden; Where doing nothing was not boring - it was peace.
~Milan Kundera
