Our Mission
Have you ever been so hungry it hurt? Have you felt alone, afraid, abandoned, betrayed even? Stuck outside in an unfamiliar place, with nowhere safe to go? We have all had experiences like these, and we all know people who have been through this. Sadly, many animals go through these things as well. These things can leave the animals permanently damaged and changed. The objective of Critterrville Inc. is to help these animals. We satisfy their special needs and provide food, a warm bed, and most importantly, love. We care with all our hearts about each of our animals individually. Critterville Inc. was founded by Lisa to give disabled animals a chance at a happy life. Lisa has always been an animal lover, and has cared for many pets over the years. Her passion for caring for disabled critters began in 2001 when she took in a beautiful dog named Domino, who suffered from hip displaysia. Lisa diligently worked daily to manage Domino’s condition, keeping a weight control regimen, exercising daily, and keeping up with his strict medication schedule. She realized that not everyone would have the dedication required to care for disabled animals, and that many would live poor lives. She knew what she needed to do, and she founded Critterville Inc. Then came along a horse named Special. Special was about to be euthanized, due to his being foundered. After taking in special, Lisa decided to start a shelter. For the past 17 years Critterville Inc. has grown to be the home of 32 cats, 18 dogs, 3 horses, and many other animals. Sadly, Lisa has a disability of her own, and because of it she can no longer fully maintain Critterville by herself. Lisa is now dependent on the donations and support of volunteers who graciously give of their time and money to take care of these precious creatures.
