Center Valley Animal Rescue is located in the quaint town of Quilcene in East Jefferson County on the Olympic Peninsula. The Ranch is on 32 acres and has been under development for the past 6 years in order to facilitate the myriad of animals and the various local demands for animal welfare.
The Ranch has made great strides in providing its residents with safe and loving sanctuary; the horses at Center Valley Animal Rescue are now happily grazing in their large pastures; the total area available for them to graze has nearly doubled thanks to new fencing. Volunteers from Pace Engineering are currently building a 6 stall barn thanks to several donors sponsoring individual stalls. The chickens, geese and bunnies are enjoying their expanded and roofed enclosures. The Ranch is now outfitted with four different types of cat rooms serving the various health issues and personalities of our nearly 35 feline residents. New outdoor cat runs are under construction so all the feline residents can choose between their secure warm indoor faciliity or the joy of basking outside in the morning sun. Indoors, the reception area is being prepared to greet guests and offer group tours. A lovely hot house for indoor reptiles and birds has been outfitted with a number of new reptitle enclosures for our many residents.
Overall, a lot of progress has been made and with continued support from community members, the Ranch's potential is only as limited as our collective vision and commitment.
