Creating a life long home for

ANIMALS IN NEED

At Cedarhill Animal Sanctuary, we believe every life deserves love, dignity, and a safe place to call home. We are deeply committed to rescuing animals in need—both domestic and exotic—and providing lifelong care to those who have suffered abandonment, abuse, or neglect.


Here, majestic big cats, horses, dogs, domestic cats, and livestock all share a forever home—a place where second chances aren’t just given, they are celebrated. Within our sanctuary’s embrace, every animal finds peace, healing, and unconditional kindness.

Pawsville-A Safe Haven Taking Shape

Phase 1 is nearly complete, and now we’re stepping into the work that will finally bring Pawsville to life for our dogs — pouring concrete pads, installing electrical and water, and laying out the pen locations where they’ll one day rest, play, and feel safe again.

Every line we trench and every foundation we pour is a promise to them: your forever home is coming.

Help us move into Phase 2.

Help our Canine residents get the upgrade they deserve!

Together Tuesday!

We’re turning it into a day of simple, powerful action for the animals of Cedarhill. Summer heat is tough on our residents — from dogs and cats to pigs, donkeys, and big cats — and we need your help to keep everyone safe and cool.
