Pets to Go is a nonprofit, no-kill animal shelter serving the Springfield area. Our mission is to give these homeless animals a second chance through our rescue, shelter, and adoption programs.
We were founded in 1990 with a few simple objectives: save and place cats and dogs in new homes, and educate the public about spaying and neutering their pets.
We’re now one of the largest no-kill shelters in the state! Each year, Pets to Go helps more than 1,300 cats and dogs find permanent homes.
Pets to Go needs your help in many ways:
ADOPT: Make all the difference in the life or a dog or cat.
VOLUNTEER: Help us save the lives of hundreds of abandoned and unwanted pets each year.
DONATE: Support our life-saving mission.
Our Annual Adopt-a-Rama takes place Saturday, December 4! Click here for details.

Astro can thank his lucky stars, because after a car hit him, he made it out of the vet hospital in Springfield and found a temporary home with us. Astro is little nervous, but once he settles down, he loves people to pet him. He is lean and lanky, and even though we think he is fit to run a kitty marathon, he weighs almost 12 pounds!
