Why We Do What We Do
Until the day when animals are no longer used for research and testing, we work to help as many as possible have the chance to live as beloved family members, raise awareness about animal testing, and educate all to know that former research animals can have happily ever afters.
Our Mission
Cage to Couch provides medical care and loving homes to rescued laboratory research survivors and other animals who have suffered neglect and abandonment and cruelty and abuse, including seniors and those with special medical needs.
Our Vision
Our vision is a humane world where humans do not impose suffering on animals.
We strive to be a model for turning compassion into action by fostering empathy and humane treatment for animals through rescue, education, and advocacy.
In 2023, according to USDA statistics, 42,295 dogs and 13,005 cats
were used in research and experiments in the United States alone.
“Category E” experiments increased 9% over the previous year.
These experiments involve procedures that cause pain or distress without any relief for the animals.
The number of dogs used in Category E experiments increased 20% in 2023.
The number of cats subjected to more suffering increased 51%.

The Scoop
Where Silicone Saves Lives
Researchers with Swiss Vascular have developed anatomically exact silicone models of cerebral vessels. Through this development, researchers will not only reduce the amount of animal experimentation required but also improve the standard of medical training for complex medical procedures.
