Sponsor a Pet to Help Him Find a Home
Even if you're not able to adopt a pet today, you can help a homeless animal by sponsoring his shelter and care until while he waits to find a new home.
“I want to help, but can’t adopt a pet right now.”
Do you feel that way as you browse through pet listed on Petfinder.com? You're not alone. It's the most common sentiment expressed by the thousands of visitors who email us.
The good news is that most of them go on to find the pet of their dreams – that perfect companion – and provide him or her a "forever home".
But what about the pets left behind – those equally deserving companions who for some reason just weren’t a good lifestyle match? We've got good news for them, and you can help.

Sponsor a Pet that Touches Your Heart
Petfinder.com and the Petfinder.com Foundation are excited to offer a program that allows you to sponsor a homeless pet that has touched your heart, but which, for some reason, you can't adopt at this time.
It costs an average of $180 to provide care for a pet while she waits for a home. But because it costs less to euthanize pets than it does to care for them, under-funded shelters are often forced to make hard decisions affecting good pets. You can help change this.
You can start by clicking to sponsor a pet that melts your heart on Petfinder.com! Your contribution of just $10 may enable a pet to receive care until a new loving family comes along. They all deserve this chance.
Contributions are collected and distributed to the animal shelters or rescue organizations by the Petfinder.com Foundation and are tax deductible as allowed by law.
Note that not all Petfinder.com member are participating in the program at this time. In the event that the pet you select receives numerous sponsorships or is no longer available for adoption at the time your donation is received, an animal adoption organization may apply donations to ongoing needs for the other pets in its care.
