We need your support HART is a volunteer organization that provides a safe refuge to hundreds of homeless cats each year. We rely primarily on the support of individual donors to help us rescue and provide shelter for these innocent animals. Please help the shelter cover the costs of food, veterinary care, supplies, and other expenses by sending a donation. We must also raise significant funding to finish paying for our new shelter building. You can help by sending a donation to HART's Capital Campaign. Please let us know if you would like your donation to go to the capital campaign (shelter building), or to operational expenses (food, medical care, etc.) Make a secure online donation through PayPal using your credit card or bank account: OR Mail your check to: HART, All contributions are fully tax deductible. HELP FIX ME! On your Maine State Tax Form, check the box called The Companion Animal Sterilization Fund.

YOU can help raise funds for HART... ...by simply grocery shopping at Shaw's! Present your Shaw's Rewards card when you shop at Shaw's (Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday, only) and they will donate a percentage of your total purchase to a non-profit organization(s) of your choice. Simply register your Rewards card at www.Shaws.com/neighborhoodrewards and designate HART (ID: 49001018509) to receive benefits. It's that easy! Note that this new Shaw's Neighborhood Rewards program, effective March 1, simplifies the prior program which required collection of paper cash register receipts. If you don’t have a Rewards Card, click here or visit the Service Desk of any Shaw’s or Star Market to get yours today.
...by saving empty ink jet and laser printer cartridges! Instead of tossing these in the trash and hurting the environment, they can now be brought to HART where we will turn them into cash for the shelter. ALL brands are accepted, but the original manufacturer's label must still be on the cartridge and it must not have been previously recycled. If you're unsure whether your cartridges meet this criteria, bring them to HART anyhow. We'll sort them out, so bring them all! Please contact Marcia Carr with questions.
..by searching the web (GoodSearch) or shopping online (GoodShop)!

Petunia was found wandering around a neighborhood and the people who helped to rescue her think her family moved and left her behind. This kitty is a BIG gorgeous girl. Her hair is long and soft and she has very striking markings. Petunia was already spayed and is friendly so she was definitely someone's pet at one time. This pretty kitty is starved for affection. Please call soon to meet her and offer her the loving home she so deserves!
