We work individually, and with other rescue groups, to help rehabilitate and re-home animals in need.

ScratchMyBelly.org is a non-profit that was founded to help save animals from high kill shelters in Southern California and the streets of Mexico.

Our goal is to help raise funds to rehabilitate the neglected, injured and sick. We also help perfectly healthy animals find their forever homes.

Every year, about 10 million animals are brought to animal shelters across the USA alone, and more than 5 million of those are put to sleep via euthanasia or gas chamber. It is an average of 10,000 per day!
Economically distressed areas and the illusionary mindset that selling puppies will make one rich, are quickly brought to reality that there are many costs associated with owning animals and most back yard breeders just opt to let their animals go in the streets to be picked up as strays by animal control.

Once the animals are brought to SoCal animal shelters, they are placed on a 72-hour hold and are only available for ONE DAY to adopters and rescues before they are put down.

It is time to end unnecessary killing of innocent animals and stop animal cruelty, and give the special attention and care for the ones left to die.
