Presently, Luna’s House routinely works with cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, chinchillas, hamsters, gerbils, mice, reptiles, birds, and additional small animals. We are currently in the process of developing a foster program for dogs and in the future, we may even work with pot-bellied pigs!

Instead, we are working with other local groups and shelters to take in animals that may otherwise not get the second chance at a happy home they so deserve.
