March is Women’s History Month
Did you know that Pet Project Rescue is owned and operated by a group of women? We have been successful because of our amazing founder, Maia, and a wonderful group of volunteers since 2008!
Pet Project Rescue’s focus is to end suffering and reduce the homeless animal population at its source!
We dedicate funds and volunteer efforts to provide spay/neuter services for the most vulnerable cats in our community through Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) programing and educational training. Since the creation of our TNR program in 2009, PPR has fixed 846 community cats and set a goal of spaying/neutering an additional 150 community cats in Minneapolis & St Paul by the end of 2019.
In addition to TNR, Maia is extremely passionate about our Hero Fund. The Hero Fund provides life-saving vet care to owned and homeless animals, assuring them a healthy and happy life! If you think that is incredible, in 2018 PPR created a Cancer Fund to eradicate TVT cancer – a common, but curable cancer transmitted by intact dogs. For just $120 we are able to provide 6-8 weeks of chemotherapy and cure these dogs of cancer! Wow!
We would like to take a moment to thank our talented volunteers for their efforts in all of our programming. We would not be where we are today without all of you!
