Cleveland Animal Protective League - Cleveland Animal Protection League - Offsite
Our Mission
The Cleveland Animal Protective League is dedicated to a powerful, simple goal: fostering compassion and ending animal suffering. Since 1913, we have been committed to helping homeless animals find their way into safe, loving, and permanent homes.
A History of Compassion
As an independent, nonprofit organization in Cleveland's historic Tremont neighborhood, we have been creating happily ever afters for over a century. Because we receive no government funding, our life-saving work is made possible entirely through the generosity of our community, donors, and dedicated volunteers.
How We Care
We operate as an unlimited stay humane society, providing shelter and medical care for animals in need. Through our signature Second Chance Program, we offer specialized medical care and rehabilitation for animals that arrive with injuries or illnesses, ensuring they receive every opportunity to thrive before finding their new family.
Your Adoption Journey
Adopting is a joyful partnership, and we are here to ensure you find the perfect companion to match your lifestyle. Our knowledgeable staff will guide you through the process, sharing the unique behavioral and medical history of each animal, and providing you with a wealth of information to help your new friend transition comfortably into your home.
Meet Your Best Friend
We invite you to stop by our Adoption Center in Tremont or browse our available animals online to find your new best friend. Your journey toward a lifetime of companionship begins here, and we cannot wait to help you start your own happily ever after.
