Organization Overview
About Us
Cowboy Capital Pet Assistance League Inc., is an no-kill animal rescue organization dedicated to finding safe, permanent homes for the stray, unwanted and abandoned pets of Bandera County.In November 2008 the County of Bandera in Texas terminated it's contract with CCPAL, forcing CCPAL to relocate its animals to various temporary foster families.CCPAL has recently acquired some property to build a new facility. Help is needed to raise funding for this new Capital project. Every penny can help, so please donate to help us rebuild so we may continue saving the lives of animals in Bandera County.
Who We Are
The Cowboy Capital Pet Assistance League, Inc (CCPAL) has operated in Bandera, Texas, since 2002. In 2005 it began managing the Bandera County Animal Control Facility and immediately turned it into a no-kill adoption center. In addition to private "surrenders," CCPAL now takes in all of Bandera County's stray or abandoned cats & dogs. All of CCPAL personnel are volunteers, some make a 40 mile round-trip to clean kennels and feed animals that the County would otherwise gas or drown.
Our Organization's Mission
The Cowboy Capital Pet Assistance League, Inc, (C.C.P.A.L.) is a no-kill, 501(c)(3) non-profit rescue organization serving all of Bandera County, Texas. Its primary purpose is to rescue the County’s stray and abandoned cats and dogs and find them safe, permanent homes. By cooperating with other organizations it promotes spay/neuter programs in an effort to reduce the enormous pet overpopulation in Bandera County.
Who We Serve
CCPAL serves all of Bandera County's pet owners regardless of age or income level.
Our Programs
Apart from its Adoption Program, CCPAL has a Foster Program whereby pets live in private homes while awaiting adoption. It offers quarterly six-week-long Dog Obedience classes to help owners turn their boisterous dogs into happy & relaxed pets. It also offers low-cost vaccination & micro-chipping clinics
