We envision a future where every pet has a family and every family can keep their pet.

It is our mission to help feed the hungry, to help protect by teaching safety within the community, to help stop littering by providing free or low-cost spay and neuter services and to help with pet retention by finding homes for animals in need.  We are proud to partner with several organizations such as the Center for Food Action (Mahwah, Ringwood and Saddle Brook), the Social Services Association of Ridgewood and many local fire departments throughout Bergen County.  Companion Animal Advocates is making a difference in the lives of so many people in our community.  By supporting CAA, you too can be a part of the difference!
