Hunter Animal Rescue is a registered charity and every dollar raised or donated goes directly to helping our fosters. The adoption fee covers basic vet work and treatments. What it doesn’t cover is non-routine medical treatments and surgeries, emergency vet care, food or equipment. This is where we rely on your generosity, so we can save more animals in need!
