About Furrescue
Trusted Wildlife Management in the Swarthmore Community
Swarthmore County Animal Control has built its reputation on compassion, integrity, and consistent results. Every captured animal that comes through our doors receives individualized attention with necessary medical assessment and a safe place to rest. We believe no creature should be turned away simply because it is lost or unwanted.
Our volunteers work tirelessly to rescue animals from trapped situations, providing sustenance while it is sick or injured. Once the vet clears the animal to have recovered completely, we release it back into its natural habitat. From the moment an animal arrives at the shelter to the day it leaves with its new family, we prioritize its dignity and emotional well being.
