The
Whidbey Animals' Improvement Foundation (WAIF)
is a non-profit organization which was formed in 1990 in an effort to
help Whidbey Island's homeless companion animals. WAIF is dedicated
to provide food, shelter, veterinary care, and nurturing to displaced
pets until loving homes can be found for them.
WAIF's main objectives are
 |
 |
To operate minimum-kill animal shelters. |
 |
To provide the best care possible while
actively seeking adoptive homes for the animals in our trust. |
 |
To develop programs to benefit needy
companion animals. |
 |
To educate the community to treat companion
animals with greater respect and compassion. |
 |
To reduce overpopulation
of unwanted animals through spay/neuter programs and education. |
WAIF operates two animal shelters in Coupeville and Oak Harbor
and two off-site cat adoption centers in Oak Harbor and Freeland. These facilities provide safe refuge to Island County's
homeless dogs and cats while they are awaiting loving homes.
