Founded in 1989, Animal Place's California animal shelters fills a much-needed niche of farm animal rescue, sanctuary, education and adoption. Animal Place is one of the largest and oldest animal sanctuaries in the nation. We operate a 600-acre sanctuary in Grass Valley, California, and a 60-acre animal shelter in Vacaville, California. Animal Place extends compassion to all life with a special emphasis on farmed animals. This is executed by providing permanent sanctuary, education, legislation and appropriate placement of needy animals.Animals arrive from small and large farms, slaughterhouses, research facilities, and neglect or cruelty cases. All animals find a haven where all their needs are met and their individual quirks respectedIn addition to providing sanctuary farmed animals, Animal Place serves as an education and advocacy center. We offer tours, cooking classes and workshops at the sanctuary as well as volunteer and internship opportunities. Because factory farming takes the lives of 10 billion land animals each year in the United States, we promote a vegan, cruelty-free lifestyle. If you are ever in the area, we hope you can sign up for one of our tours and meet the wonderful residents at Animal Place!Rescue Ranch is the only program of its kind in the nation. Rescue Ranch is a unique California animal shelter specializing in rescuing, rehabilitating and rehoming needy farm animals. We focus on chicken rescue, working with egg farmers and shelters to offer an alternative to death. Other species, from goats to cows, are also saved and found permanent homes. Rescue Ranch is closed to the public to allow animals the security and privacy they need to recuperate from their previous life.
