48% of domestic violence survivors delay leaving an abusive relationship because they do not have a safe place for their pets.

Why would you ask her to leave either of her babies behind?

The Link.

There is a growing public awareness of the direct relationship between domestic violence and animal abuse.  Each year, defenseless pets face the grim reality that they will be victims of domestic abuse.  Research shows that individuals who abuse animals rarely stop there.  Human victims-adults and children alike - often feel they have no choice but to remain in violent households in order to protect their pets. 

Harbor House of Central Florida is partnering with Orange County Animal Services to build the first PAWS kennel that will house the pets of domestic violence survivors. But, we can't do it alone. We need your help.

Join us as we build the only PAWS (Pet And Women's Shelter) certified kennel in Central Florida for Domestic Violence Survivors.
