Story

Street Tails Animal Rescue (STAR) was founded by Lindsay Condefer and initially operated out of her pet store The Chic Petique. Since then STAR has grown into its own location and has been pulling dogs and cats out of city shelters ever since.

STAR's mission is to help the homeless, and unwanted animals within the local, Philadelphia area by helping them receive proper medical attention, educating the public on the importance of spaying and neutering, and by placing these animals in suitable, compatible, and most of all, loving homes.

STAR prides itself on taking in homeless animals that are often "overlooked." These are the animals that usually need extensive medical attention, so they are thought of as "unadoptable" or "not worth the effort." To us, rescue is about saving a life, and these are the animals that need it most.

We rely heavily on your contributions to not only keep caring for these animals, but to get them the appropriate veterinary attention they need. Click on the donate button at the top of our page to learn more about all of the ways you can support STAR. Every dollar counts!
