This site was created to inform and educate the public about animal hoarding.  We are not experts, but  we are a network of volunteers affected by animal hoarding, and want to share what we have learned. 

Within this site we have gathered the resources for not only the human addicts, but for their friends and family, as well as  the animals victimized.

Our hope for this site is to help you become aware of, educated about and take action against hoarding.

Awareness, Education and Action

Awareness - you cannot solve the problem by yourself; without professional help hoarders often revert to hoarding.  Like any other addicts they require assistance by trained professionals to overcome their addictions.

Education - there are support groups, conferences, internet resources and books; by educating yourself you will come to realize that the problems your loved one is facing are not unique, and are unfortunately not easily solved.

Action - there are many resources available through public and private agencies.  If one agency is unable to assist, or the situation is beyond their scope, you may need to access others.  Remember hoarding is not easily solved; be prepared to walk a long and winding road.

Please note that while we will do our best to guide you to these resources, we cannot offer any direct advice, just support.*
