Highly recommend for any and all adoptions and fosters! Great people, fast communication, and they make the foster & adoption process flow smoothly. Also, pretty darn cute animals we rescued a dog from here and are in love!

HPA is amazing! The application process is very easy and you are able to meet and greet animals you are interested in adopting. The staff does a tremendous job with the animals. We are so thankful to them for what they did for our Dobby. Most people would have given up on him but not HPA - he is happy and healthy thanks... read full comment
Houston Pets Alive! (HPA!) is not your average pet rescue. HPA! acts as a last resort for municipal shelters like BARC, Harris County Animal Shelter, and Baytown Animal Shelter, to save the animals who have been passed over by everyone else.
Every day HPA! saves pets who have no other options-- typically neonatal or “bottle baby” kittens, nursing moms, dogs and cats with illnesses or injuries, and those with behavior issues--from euthanasia, within hours or even minutes.
HPA! aims to increase live outcomes for these pets through robust adoption programs, high-volume spay and neuter, and community education. HPA! is determined to make Houston the largest no-kill city in the country.
