Why?
Indraloka is the only all species sanctuary in northeastern Pennsylvania, an area in desperate need for the many forgotten farm animals and a flood of abandoned dogs and cats. Indraloka offers a compassionate alternative to needless suffering, euthanasia or slaughter of healthy animals.
See for yourself.
If you would like to come visit us at the sanctuary we would love to have you. For the safety and well being of our residents, we do ask that visits and tours be scheduled ahead of time.
We encourge visitors to make a donation of $5.00
per adult and $1.00 for each child
under the age of 12. All children must
be accompanied by an adult when
visiting
the sanctuary.
About us.
Who we are.
Indraloka is a Sanskrit word meaning 'God's Heaven'. Our guiding principle is that all life is sacred, and we are all related ('the ones that walk, the ones that crawl, the ones that fly, and the ones that swim').
Indra Lahiri, PhD, founded the sanctuary based on the principle that all life is sacred.
She began by taking in unwanted and/or abused animals and soon realized that as an individual she couldn't keep up with the overwhelming need.
In 2005 the Indraloka Animal Sancturay was incorporated as a 501(c)(3) non-profit orgization and can contuine only through the generous support of people like you.
Indraloka Animal Sanctuary provides animals in desperate need with lifetime safe sanctuary, including love, compassion, gentle care, and dignity.
Indraloka Animal Sanctuary, Inc. takes in animals of every species, both large and small:
- Abused
- Neglected
- Abandoned animals
We focus on those with severe medical or behavioral issues that would otherwise be considered un-adoptable, providing veterinary care, retraining, and nurturing to bring each animal back to health, and then providing them home here at the sanctuary for the rest of their natural lives.
