Over the past several years concerned citizens have formed different organizations to solve the increasing problem of unwanted, abandoned and abused animals in the Gainesville area. Under the leadership of Dr. Shelly Gomulak, Noah's Ark S.P.C.A. was organized. With support from the City of Gainesville and donations from the community, Noah's Ark Animal Shelter opened in February of 2006.

Noah's Ark S.P.C.A. is dedicated to providing humane treatment for unwanted and abandoned pets in the Gainesville area. Our Shelter facility operates in cooperation with the City of Gainesville to accomodate impounded animals and will accept animals relinquished by local citizens in return for a small donation. It is our mission to find proper homes for the many healthy and loving animals that find their way to our shelter. All our adoptable animals are temperment tested, spayed or neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. In addition to our adoption services, Noahs' Ark has combined efforts with compasionate local veterinarians to offer low cost spay and neuter services for low income households.

Although we work in cooperation with the City of Gainesville, we are not a government agency. We are a publicly funded 501(c)(3) corporation dependent on donations from compassionate citizens who volunteer their time and money to support our efforts.
