Our Mission
Who is Greta?
Greta was a loyal, protective, loving, and spicy Pomeranian/Chihuahua mix! The Kata family rescued her from the cruel streets of Houston, TX in 2020. She was in horrible condition when rescued and the veterinarian let us know that she would be a hospice case. At the time of rescue, she was estimated to be 15, toothless, with poor eyesight, and paralyzed. With love, dedication, and a lot of delicious food, Greta’s health took a turn in a positive direction. She worked as a campus support dog for two years. Her spunky personality brought her family a lot of joy. Sadly, Greta passed away in July 2023. The Katas feel so lucky to have spent the last three years of her life spoiling her. Greta’s life is a big inspiration to the nonprofit. The Katas wanted to start a nonprofit for many years and were brainstorming ideas for a name. Team GRETA seemed appropriate because it is also an acronym- Gathering Resources for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.
