ACR PROMOTES THE CONCEPT THAT ALL ANIMALS DESERVE RESPECT AND COMPASSION, AND THAT HUMANE, NON-LETHAL METHODS FOR CONTROLLING THEIR POPULATIONS, SUCH AS TNR, SHOULD BE USED.

OUR GOAL IS TO LOWER THE EUTHANASIA OF CATS IN OURSHELTERS AND TO PREVENT THE SUFFERING OF CATS ON OUR STREETS BY PROVIDING THEM WITHHUMANE CARE.ACRs are constantly working to put an end to the myths and misinformation surrounding these innocent creatures. When cats are considered nothing more than "pestsX and "nuisances," this current trend of scapegoating dangerously fosters and promotes cruelty to animals. ACR believes that ALL animals, whether "exotic," "alien," or "introduced," deserve respect and compassion, and if humane, non-lethal methods for controlling their populations are offered, then these should be the preferred methods--instead of out-dated, inhumane, lethal eradication techniques. 755823 2153398 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false true true true false false true true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 4 0 true 20 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 5 4 true false false false false false false true true false false true true false false true true true true false AL AZ CA CO CT DE FL IA ID IL IN LA MA MD MI MO MT NC NE NJ NY OH PA RI SD TX UT VA VT WA WI WY X Louise Holton Barnes 3012775595 3906 Rhode Island Avenue Brentwood MD 20722 Louise Holton Barnes President 40.00 0.00 X X 82515 0 12925 Marsha DaBolt Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Desiree Stapley MS RD Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Peggy Hilden Treasurer 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Virginia Messina Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Susanna Delman Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 82515 12925 0 false false false L&E Meridian 7400 Fullerton Rd Springfield VA 22153 Processing/Printing 991481 1 89878 220871 2617807 2928556 Adoption Fees 1095 1095 1095 8399 8399 0 0 0 0 0 0 60355 12884 47471 47471 Mailing List Rentals 900099 40644 40644 40644 3026165 48566 49043 X 0 0 49740 49740 0 87022 85037 1062 923 0 394312 385317 4811 4184 4825 4715 59 51 45862 44815 560 487 40638 39711 496 431 0 0 68697 67130 838 729 0 0 0 0 68428 66867 835 726 11479 11217 140 122 10654 10411 130 113 0 53017 51808 647 562 29938 29255 365 318 0 4249 4152 52 45 9596 9377 117 102 0 17861 17454 218 189 29285 28617 357 311 Printing and Publications 520455 328209 94264 97982 Postage and Shipping 382481 267940 62879 51662 Veterinary 219662 219662 Cat Supplies 205085 205085 268520 226879 18108 23533 2521806 2153398 185938 182470 X 809772 469237 130861 209674 80195 291201 813594 731850 0 237904 285090 0 0 0 41226 86136 26147 18929 498952 102113 363458 396839 181881 343474 0 0 0 100 451 1744505 2153970 114515 108730 187639 172975 100000 10312 7960 412466 289665 X 1059144 1593964 272895 270341 1332039 1864305 1744505 2153970 504359 27907 X false true X true false X 1461507 2615200 2380403 2090632 2928556 11476298 0 0 1461507 2615200 2380403 2090632 2928556 11476298 383634 11092664 388 6156 8508 9657 8399 33108 0 36783 46930 69769 65948 89210 308640 11818046 0.93860 0.92510 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 140061 140061 246685 45864 200821 16967 883 16084 67210 37061 30149 28029 18305 9724 396839 Annuity Payable 7960 7960 X 3054072 27907 27907 3026165 3026165 2521806 2521806 2521806 Part X : FIN48 Footnote In general, when tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets, along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Alley Cat Rescue has determined that no such liabilities were required at July 31, 2021. true Sub-saharan Africa 0 1 Program Services Spay/Neuter Wild Cats 49740 1 1 49740 49740 Sub-Saharan Afr Wild Cat Control 49740 Wire 1 false false false false false false Part I, Line 2 - Grantmakers Explanation For Monitoring Use of Funds Outside US Alley Cat Rescue reimburses various organizations in South Africa for spay/neuter expenses.
