Recently we had a cat show up at our door that needed help. The otherwise healthy cat needed a full ear canal removal, the Pet Project helped us secure the funds needed to have the surgery done. They are always delivering pet food to low income homes to keep those pets at home and out of shelters. Thank you for what you do.
I have been following The Pet Project for quite some time now. I have gotten to know Sue Martino Executive Director and due to her hard work and caring for animals she has saved many animals from becoming homeless but able to stay in their home.
The Pet Project is making a big difference in our community here in Broward County.
The volunteers are very dedicated and go out of their way to help Broward County and our animals.
I personally have supported The Pet Project and attended events.
My most recent experience was "Clear the Shelter" at Broward County Animal Care and Adoption where Pet Projects for Pets sponsored dogs that have been with the shelter a long time. They offered to pay for food and vet for the animals if they were adopted and succeeded!
I am an employee in the animal rescue industry and have been a volunteer myself for many years.
The Pet Project does keep pets in their homes and allows so many low income , homebound, elderly, disabled, people with severe illnesses be able to stay with their 4 legged family members. As Client Service Director I am constantly seeing how grateful they are, how the Pet Project has helped them keep their pets with them, which sometimes are the only company they have and could not keep if it wasn't for the organization. When so many animals are surrendered for countless reasons, often euthanized...Providing this care not only helps people with their own emotional wellness, pet wellness and nutrition, but keeps families together, saving so many pets lives and allowing for a better world. Saving so many pets from surrender, euthanasia, mal nutrition, poor health, etc. moreover saving FAMILIES, keeping pets in their homes!
I am the Executive Director for Pet Project for Pets since 2009. The invaluable work that we do for our clients and their pets is immeasurable. We provide pet food, pet supplies and pet medications and vaccines to those individuals who are financially challenged due to illness, disability, aging, economy so that they can KEEP THEIR PETS. It is amazing when clients pick up their pet food and supplies and tell us their stories of how much we have helped them in their lives. They are so grateful for our services. Imagine being diagnosed with a terminal illness and you now have to choose between your own medication or feeding your beloved pet companion...or imagine being that pet who now will have to be surrendered to a shelter and live in a cage wondering what they did wrong...this is what we at Pet Project for Pets make sure does not happen. We keep pets and their humans happily together in their own homes thus preserving the so important Human / Animal bond.
