Houston Pets Alive! is a 501(c)3 organization comprised of animal loving volunteers on a mission to save the lives of at-risk companion cats and dogs and find them forever homes. There are 1.2 million stray animals and only two open-intake shelters in Houston. HPA! acts as a safety net for municipal shelters, to save the animals who have no other options. By developing programs and partnering with local shelters and organizations like GoodCharlie, HPA! is working to save even more lives.
