RESCUE INK

You've never met a rescue group like Rescue Ink™ - an army of tattooed, motorcycle-riding street guys who have zero tolerance for animal abuse and neglect. They think abusers are losers, and they have no problem "educating" them about the error of their ways. They aren't angels, and they've made plenty of mistakes in their lives; but we've been given a second chance. And we think neglected and abused animals deserve one, too.

Please help them enforce the organization's mission by purchasing Rescue Ink™ merchandise, donating and/or attend Rescue Ink™ Events.
