Pets Without Parents

Pets Without Parents Pets Without Parents is a non-profit, no-kill, all-breed shelter for dogs and cats. Every pet is spayed or neutered before going to his or her new home.
(411)

Our mission is to place every pet that enters our shelter into a loving, permanent home; to motivate our local community to support our shelter, its no-kill mission, and spay-neuter efforts through donation, volunteer, and adoption opportunities...until every pet goes home. We strive 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 reduce the pet overpopulation. We can only accomplish our mission by educating the community and sharing our beliefs that we are creating a better world for these wonderful animals.

Louie needs us! Louie came to PWP when his previous family did not feel they had the resources to care for him well. Louie is actually the second dog that came to PWP from this family. Remember his silly sister, Gracie, from a few months ago? While his previous family was unable to provide vet care, PWP started him on his wellness journey and a grade 3 heart murmur was discovered. It is recommended for Louie to get a cardiac work-up and consult (appoximately $1000) so that we understand his health thoroughly and can pass this information on to any potential adopters. Funding has been increasingly hard. We can appreciate that you may be feeling that way too! But it is important for us to continue to provide wonderful care to the pets that need it! Any amount helps and is very much appreciated. Louie is shedding his shy shell and becoming quite the snuggler. We don't want to slow him down! https://givebutter.com/November2025

Hanging out with Gracie is so much fun, we just had to share her with you! She's the kinda cute that makes your brain question if she is real life or an amazing imaginary friend. You can find her supposed breed mix in her adoption bio, but go ahead and share your best guesses! And if you'd like her to be your real-life best friend, submit an application today! www.petswithoutparents.net

ANNUAL REMINDER: The Columbus Arts Festival is a great place for people but not for pets. Heat and crowded conditions make the Arts Festival a stressful and potentially unhealthy place for dogs and other animal companions. We love pets too and that's why we ask that you leave yours at home!

Happy Birthday PWP! This small, mighty, and compassionate rescue turns 24 years today! It's moving to think of the over 16,000 animal lives rescued and all the families made over these many years. So much support has been needed to make this happen. Heartfelt thanks to all the GoodSams, Adopters, Volunteers, Fosters, Donors, Veterinary Partners, And Staff. We know we survived and will continue to make such an impact with this many amazing people caring about all of the pets without parents.
