Flora's Pet Project
Our Mission
Flora's Pet Project, founded in 1999, rescues and rehomes abandoned or unwanted dogs and cats, and provides all necessary veterinary care for each one before placing them in carefully-screened, loving homes. We have no source of income other than donations, but we are a volunteer organization with no overhead, so 100% of each tax-deductible gift directly benefits the pets, whether for the premium food we feed or the incomparable veterinary care we provide. Our pets are locally-sourced, as well; every pet in our care was rescued, and is being fostered, in Connecticut.
Please contact us at floradog2003@yahoo.com to inquire about any pet--we look forward to hearing from you!
Adoption Policy
WHO SHOULD APPLY TO ADOPT?: We specifically look for potential adopters with previous pet experience and a verifiable vet history, and because we have no opportunity to observe any of our pets interacting with young children, we do not place them in homes with very young family members. With very rare exceptions, home ownership is required.
HOW TO APPLY TO ADOPT?: Please EMAIL us at floradog2003@yahoo.com and we will send your our adoption application, which may either be downloaded, completed and returned to us by email with the changes saved (preferred), or printed out and mailed (address provided upon request)
MEETING THE PET: Adoption applications will be reviewed within 24 hours (usually even faster) and if it looks as if there is a match to be made, we will make an appointment for you to visit the pet at his or her foster home at your convenience.
ADOPTION DONATIONS: Adoptions are by voluntary donation, but we suggest $300 for most dog adoptions and $125 for kittens and young cats (we spend an average of $1,000 on vet care for each pet we place).
CONTACT US: If you have questions about any pet, or about the process, please e-mail us at floradog2003@yahoo.com and we will get right back to you.
