Welcome to Our Non-Profit Animal Rescue
Adopt a Pet!At Nor Cal Pet Rescue, we believe every companion animal deserves a safe, loving home – and a second chance at life.
Every pet in our care is spayed / neutered, up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, treated for fleas and parasites, and provided with healthy food, daily exercise, and lots of love. We’re committed to making sure they’re happy, healthy, and ready to become part of your family.
When you adopt from us at NorCal Pet, you’re not just gaining a pet – you’re gaining a support system. You’ll receive an Adoption Bag filled with goodies valued at $50–$70 (just pay the tax!) and enjoy 20% off all store products (excluding food) to help you and your new best friend get started on the right paw.

Your home could be their forever!

About Nor Cal Pet Rescue
Nor Cal Pet Rescue is a small 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in McKinleyville, California, dedicated to giving adoptable companion animals the second chance they deserve. While we care for a variety of animals, our rescue most often helps cats and small dogs in need.
A core part of our mission is ensuring every animal is spayed or neutered before adoption, helping reduce pet overpopulation in our community. Each pet also receives necessary vaccinations, flea and parasite treatment, nutritious food, and daily care in a safe, loving environment while they wait for their forever home.
Over the years, we’ve helped hundreds of animals begin new chapters with families who love them. None of this would be possible without the incredible support of our community. Every adoption opens the door for us to save another life – and that’s what inspires us every single day.
