IMPACT for Animals was created in 1995 to meet the ever-increasing needs of homeless or soon to be homeless cats & dogs in the St. Louis area. We also strive to meet the medical and psychological needs of animals who have suffered abuse or neglect by negligent owners. All of our rescued animals receive appropriate veterinarian care. Spays/Neuters are an important component of our program.

Adoption weekends are held the first weekend of each month at the PetsMart located in Sunset Hills. Our commitment is to "quality, not quantity, in animal placements". Therefore, all potential owners are required to go through an application process in an effort to make a good match between owner & pet. An adoption fee is required.

Our Mission is to find permanent & responsible homes for the homeless or soon to be homeless cats & dogs referred to us by various shelters & individuals.  It is our goal to find families who will provide a safe, loving, lasting environment. In order to ensure the most permanent placement possible, we will educate the public regarding:

• The importance of spaying and neutering.
• The need for a structured, consistent, environment.
• The need for obedience training.

We maintain an open communication with our adoptive families in an effort to head off problems that may result in the return of a pet. We also maintain an open door policy regarding the return of any animal placed through our organization.
