Over time, our mission has evolved from providing safe haven to at-risk animals to providing low-cost veterinary services to indigent, elderly, and veterans.

HOUSE & HEAL

We provide sanctuary, care, and rehabilitation to homeless, neglected, and abused animals. We focus largely on FELV+, FIV+, and geriatric animals in a cage-free setting. Become a sponsor today!

FOSTER & ADOPT

Up until 2021, we found foster homes for adoptable animals in our sanctuary and strived to place these adoptable animals into loving, permanent homes. We do not have an active adoption program but work with our partners to help animals find homes.

SPAY & NEUTER

We provide affordable spay/neuter and veterinary services to local animal rescues, shelters, and the public. Rude Ranch achieves this through its spay/neuter clinic, Spay Spa & Neuter Nook.

SAVE CATS

We work with a cadre of trappers, community caregivers, and stakeholders to humanely manage the community cat population in Maryland through our Trap-Neuter-Return Program.

ERADICATE EUTHANASIA

Through our clinic and in partnership with

Anne Arundel County Care and Control and SPCA, we take a proactive, frontline role to reduce and ultimately eradicate unnecessary euthanasia in Maryland.

FREE SERVICEs TO Under-Resourced Communities

We aim to provide free spay/neuter, vaccinations, and medical care to pets in low-income communities. This mission is achieved through financial support from competitive grants and from readers just like you.
