Motley Zoo is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization operating as an all-volunteer, foster-based animal rescue based in Redmond, Washington. The organization primarily rescues and re-homes dogs and, to a lesser extent, cats and kittens, ensuring animals are healthy, spayed or neutered, and prepared for adoption through training and guidance for prospective families. Instead of a brick-and-mortar facility, Motley Zoo relies on a network of foster homes to house its animals and to train volunteers who support the rescue's mission of rescue, rehabilitation, and education. The group emphasizes collaboration with shelters, owner surrenders, and community outreach to reduce animal overpopulation and to provide resources that help pet owners keep their animals when possible. As a small nonprofit, Motley Zoo operates within the nonprofit animal welfare sector in the Seattle area, aiming to serve both the animals in need and the families seeking suitable pets.
