Animal Emergency Team
Our Animal Emergency Team is gearing up
for what could be a very serious fire season due to
the extremely dry weather. The AET will assist the Jefferson County Sheriff's office and
Animal Control by setting up and maintaining a temporary animal shelter in the same building
as a Red Cross shelter to take care of the pets belonging to people who have been evacuated
from the disaster area and who are staying at the Red Cross shelter.
Volunteers are needed for the Animal Emergency Team. If you would like to volunteer or need more information, please call us at (303) 674-6442.
EAPL Thrift Shop
It was just a year ago that volunteers scrubbed, swept, painted, and stocked our new thrift store on Bryant Drive, and because of a caring community and great volunteers, we are able to celebrate our first year at the "EAPL Thrift Shop" located on Bryant Drive. The profits from the shop have gone toward our mission to "relieve the suffering of animals in our community through rescue, shelter, and education." With about 75% of our budget going toward veterinary care, the thrift shop's contribution toward the relief for these animals is meaningful and welcome. Donations and purchase of the merchandise further our efforts to relieve the often desperate situations of animals who likely didn't get into trouble by their own doing.
If you haven't been by the store, stop in and take a look. It is open from 10:00 to 5:00 every day except Sunday and the most popular holidays. You might be able to replace the cup to your grandmother's china, find a costume for a party, or some good gardening gloves. The possibilities are endless!
Volunteers are needed and always welcome. Call the main phone line for EAPL: 303 674-6442, or call the shop: (303) 679-2504, or stop by the shop and talk with Dana or Lisa.
EAPL is a non-profit, volunteer organization dedicated to providing aid to lost, abandoned, and suffering animals through rescue, shelter, and education. Since our inception in April, 1981, we have provided a better life for thousands of animals.

We have no paid employees and are not supported by taxes. Most animals in our care
live in foster homes until adopted. We must raise funds to operate, and we depend on
the generosity of our community for support.
You can help the EAPL by visiting our Donations page. Please Donate Now!
Our primary needs are phone volunteers, foster homes, cat room volunteers, and financial contributions. Please contact us if you can help!
There are many cats, kittens, dogs, and other animals waiting to be adopted today. You can read all about their stories and see their pictures on the Cats & Kittens Available, Dogs Available, and Other Animals pages in this web site. Our main goal is to find loving, safe homes for these pets. Why not adopt a loyal companion today?!
Would you like to ADOPT A CAT OR KITTEN?
Would you like to ADOPT A DOG OR OTHER ANIMAL?
Once we receive your completed online adoption application, we will contact you soon to find a perfect match. If you have a cat, dog, or other animal who needs a new home and you are able to keep your pet until a new home is found, we can help. Please understand that EAPL does not have a shelter and we have only a limited amount of foster homes. However, if you can keep your pet until a new home is found, complete our CAT PROFILE or DOG OR OTHER ANIMAL PROFILE . We will contact you soon to discuss the pet.
What would happen to your pets in an emergency? Should you be asked to evacuate during an emergency, such as a fire, many organizations are positioned to aid you, your family, and your animals. A plan may be your best defense. click here for our new Emergency Shelters and Preparedness page.
Are you interested in volunteering as a foster home? Fostering for the Evergreen League can be a fun and rewarding experience. Foster homes are truly a necessity for the Evergreen League. Since we don’t have a shelter, foster homes can make the difference between life and death for an animal in need.
We recently asked our foster people what their favorite thing is about fostering and if they have a favorite foster pet. Here are some of their answers:

I am blessed to take care of older dogs with medical needs. Older dogs only
ask to be let out occasionally, for two meals a day, for a place on the rug
(under your feet) and to be petted ever so often. In return, they will give
you undying love, loyalty and affection. Older dogs get along with everybody
(including cats) and simply want to be part of a community of pets.
Favorite is not a word I would use. But I feel close to a large German Shepherd named "Max" who is currently in remission from Lymphoma. Max and I travel to the flat lands monthly for his chemotherapy and have bonded as he is picked up from the hospital and returned "home."
