Actors And Others For Animals Help Control Animal Population

Actors And Others For Animals, a non-for profit organization, has made a difference in the lives of animals and humans alike.

(PRWEB) January 7, 2006 -- To curb the ever growing pet population in America, Actors and Others For Animals lobbies for lower cost spay and neuter facilities in the LA area. The organization also raises money and awareness to stop animal cruelty as well as to build and maintain qualified animal shelters and hospitals. Founded in 1971, late actor Richard Basehart and wife Diana conceived the Actors and Others For Animals foundation to promote the humane treatment of animals.    

Celebrity involvement with A and O has greatly increased its exposure as well as productivity. From early members like Lucy Arnaz and Doris Day to current contributors like Betty White, Diane Keaton, and David Hasselhoff, A and O has raised millions of dollars to continue the care of pets for the less fortunate as well as the senior citizen pet population.

Most recently, A and O has signed on as an official member of the American Partnership For Pets as well as the Coalition To End Pet Overpopulation.

Here you can review the history of the organization and learn about the everyday cause of helping our pet population.

The overflow of support by Hollywood’s elite has made A and O a more exposed cause with some big names behind it. Not only can you contribute to the cause financially, but you may also view pets up for adoption through the site. See these animals eager for a home at http://www.actorsandothers.com/adoptions.

The acting population is a large part of the Los Angeles community.
