Pet Buddies Atlanta is a non-profit 501(c)(3) that runs entirely on volunteers.
We provide support to pet families in need.
Working within communities
Creating change
Our community outreach program seeks to increase the overall health and well-being of pets in underserved communities. We work hard to build trusting relationships and establish an ongoing positive presence in the communities we help.
Our goals:
-
Improving pet's overall health and wellness through education and resources.
-
Targeting pet communities that need help the most.
-
Preventing pet homelessness by providing free spay & neuter.
-
Breaking down barriers and cultivating relationships in areas where poverty is high & resources are limited.
-
Help as many pet owners keep their pets through challenging circumstances as possible.
Providing Spay + Neuter
For families financially struggling
Every year, we sponsor up to 300 spay and neuter surgeries for struggling pet owners. Spay & Neuter prevents unwanted litters, and the results mean fewer animals dying in shelters or wandering Atlanta's busy streets. We also provide TNR assistance. Trap+Neuter+Return is a humane and effective approach for stray and feral cats. We are putting an end to the cycle.
To date: We have sponsored 2,100 spay and neuter surgeries for struggling pet owners & community cats.
Keeping Bellies Full
Donating pet food to struggling families
One out of six Americans live in poverty; there are tens of millions of people living in poverty with pets. Some of the families we help are single parents, veterans, seniors, disabled, homeless, and everyday people who have fallen on hard times. Our mobile outreach program delivers pet food to low-income areas of Atlanta to ensure it gets to where it is most needed.
