Animal Resources

Welcome to our local guide to the animals who share our mountains, farms, and neighborhoods. Here you’ll find links to pages for each animal — whether wild or domestic — with information on local rescues, what to do if you find one lost or injured, and how to coexist safely and kindly. Explore below to learn, help, and celebrate the creatures that make our community unique. Click photo's below for more information. We are still building the resource list below but Cats, Dogs, Fish and Snakes are ready! Give them a click!
