Please share all pet-related organizations you know of...

And if you know of any good regional or national comprehensive portals that already have such information (and is kept updated), please share that as well!

This heartbreaking post in GD yesterday by HillWilliam is what inspires this post:

Along with supernova's reply, sharing info regarding an organization:

The need to find new homes for beloved pets is arising more and more often as a result of various traumatic life events, combined with the financial limitations of so many. This is a key reason people come to Wishadoo.

Compiling a resource directory of PET RESOURCES (rescue organizations, free/low-cost vet care, pet food banks, etc.) would be very helpful. I have the directory structure already set up; I just need the information to insert.

Would you kindly share resources you recommend? Again, if there is already a comprehensive directory out there that is maintained, please share that as well!

Thanks.
