Pets Without Parents was founded in June
of 2001. We are a non-profit, no-kill, all-breed pet shelter.
Our mission is to create a community that nurtures and respects companion
animals, and to someday see that every pet is loved. In order to
create such a community, Pets Without Parents functions as a pet adoption
shelter, carefully placing pets into forever homes. Additionally, we
do everything in our power to help reduce the pet overpopulation. Every
pet is spayed or neutered before going to his/her new home. Our mission can only
be accomplished through the education of the community -- sharing our
beliefs helps to ensure that we are creating a better world for deserving
pets.

This Week's Featured Dog: Kitchi
Kitchi's long stay at the shelter started to really take a toll on her spirit. She's now in a foster home and feeling a bit better. However, we know she'd prefer a permanent home. Kitchi is a great girl - already housebroken, loving, and very playful. If you'd like to give her the chance she deserves, please email us to arrange a meeting. |
This Week's Featured Cat:
If you'd like to meet Sidney, you'll have to visit her in the adoption office. You see - she's decided she has had enough of life in a cage. After all, how much can a cat take?! Sidney is quite the office cat. She loves everyone, and really doesn't mind the dogs. Besides that, she's absolutely beautiful! Please stop by and meet her. |

Every day, a new financial cost seems to arise. From an abandoned cat with a missing eye, to a dog who is in need of special diet food because of allergies, the shelter is always in need of financial support. Contrary to popular belief, PWP is not funded through taxes. If you are able to help, even if it is one dollar, please know how greatly your support is appreciated. Plus, your donation is tax deductible!~Donate today via secure PayPal~ The shelter is always in need of various supplies
(which can be found on our
Shopping List). Listed below are items that
we currently need desperately.
(we are in need of spray bottles, mop heads, and various other "hardware" supplies. Any denomination is helpful)
OPT TO ADOPT! If you are considering getting a pet, ADOPT! Please DO NOT BUY a pet from a breeder or pet store. There are too many homeless pets in this world dying by the thousands every single day. Please visit www.prisonersofgreed.org to learn more about puppy-mill factories and pet stores. Also, please visit us, or other local shelters to find your new best friend. |

fortunate to receive financial support from Petco, but it's only possible
because of our supporters shopping at the
