No. We don't require 501c3 non-profit status to sign up for a shelter/rescue account. However, you must:
- be a legitimate rescue organization and not engaging in activities counter-productive to the cause of animal rescue such as breeding pets, encouraging the public to breed pets, or selling pets for profit
- be in possession of any local or state-required permits necessary for your operations
- not have any pending or confirmed animal control or criminal citations or violations
We have some other requirements too! You may read our service terms here.
