Happy Tails Pet Rescue

Our Mission

Happy Tails Pet Rescue is a dedicated non-profit, no-kill organization committed to giving unwanted and abandoned cats a second chance at finding the loving forever homes they deserve. We believe that every animal should be treated with respect and dignity, and we strive to create a better world for homeless pets through compassion and care.

Who We Are

Founded to support animals facing difficult circumstances, we step in to provide safety for cats from high-kill shelters, local strays, and those surrendered by families who can no longer provide care. By working closely with area shelters and humane organizations, we have built a network of volunteers in New Hampshire and Massachusetts who share our passion for saving lives.

How We Operate

As a 100% volunteer-run 501(c)(3) organization, our focus is always on the well-being of our feline residents. We maintain a strict no-kill policy and ensure every cat receives essential veterinary care before they are ready to meet their new families. We operate out of three distinct locations in Hudson, NH, a PetSmart in Plaistow, NH, and our partnership with the Lazy Cat Lounge in Lowell, MA.

Your Adoption Journey

We are committed to thoughtful matching, ensuring that each cat finds the perfect environment to thrive. Because our operations are managed by a dedicated team of volunteers, we prioritize quality communication and request that you submit an application to begin your journey. We look forward to setting up an appointment for you to meet your potential new companion.
