ABANDONED PET PROJECT

Abandoned Pet Project is dedicated to providing funding and support for abandoned, abused, neglected, and homeless animals so they can receive the medical care they need and the second chances they deserve.

As a 100% volunteer-run, foster-based nonprofit, we work alongside foster families, veterinarians, rescue organizations, and our community to rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome animals in need. In addition to caring for the animals in our program, we proudly support community outreach initiatives, spay/neuter efforts, and collaborative partnerships that improve animal welfare throughout our communities.

Abandoned Pet Project was founded on a simple belief: every animal deserves a chance, no matter how difficult their circumstances.

Our organization's early growth was closely connected to our partnership with Vet Ranch, whose network of dedicated veterinarians provided lifesaving medical care for homeless animals with treatable conditions. Together, we helped countless animals receive the medical treatment they needed and find loving forever homes. Many of our earliest supporters discovered our mission through the Vet Ranch community, and we're grateful for the role that partnership played in helping build the organization we are today.

Over the years, Abandoned Pet Project has evolved from primarily funding medical care into a rescue that also coordinates foster homes, facilitates adoptions, supports community outreach, and collaborates with veterinarians and fellow rescue organizations to save even more lives.

While much has evolved, our mission remains the same: providing animals in need with the medical care, compassion, and second chances they deserve.

Every animal's journey is different. Some require only routine veterinary care before finding a forever home, while others need extensive diagnostics, surgery, rehabilitation, or months of recovery before they're ready for adoption.

We're not breed-specific—we're need-specific. We believe every animal deserves the opportunity to heal, regardless of breed, age, or medical condition.

Today, most animals in our program are adopted directly through Abandoned Pet Project, with select animals transferred to trusted rescue partners when it's in the animal's best interest. Every adoption is thoughtfully matched to help create lifelong success for both the animal and their new family.
