We're a privately funded, foster-based rescue. No shelters, no budgets from the city — just generous people who care about cats and dogs in need. Your support provides food, medical care, and a safe haven until each animal finds their fur-ever home.
Donations Save Lives
At Rebels Rescue, saving the lives of cats and dogs in need depends entirely on the generosity of people like you. As a privately funded rescue, we depend on the generosity of those who care about animal welfare in the Tampa Bay area to keep our mission going. Every dollar goes directly toward giving these animals a second chance at life—providing food, medical care, and a safe haven until they find their fur-ever homes. Without your support, none of this would be possible. Help us make a difference and give these deserving pets the care they need to thrive.
