Senior Pet and Animal Rescue

Senior Pet and Animal Rescue Senior Pet and Animal Rescue (SPAAR) is a non-profit and volunteer foster-based rescue located in Pit

Jen and Laura dreamed of a safe haven for senior animals that are generally considered "less adoptable" or "difficult to place." As owners and lovers of elderly pets, they realized these animals needed their help and homes. Senior Pet and Animal Rescue (SPAAR) transformed that dream into a heartfelt reality. Through grassroots outreach efforts, SPAAR commits to educating the public about the advan

tages of adopting a senior animal and on the importance of spaying and neutering their pets. In addition, SPAAR will work directly and individually with pet owners to help keep senior animals with their families and in their homes, reducing the number of senior animals that are surrendered to shelters. At this time, SPAAR is a 100% foster-based animal rescue organization. While our long-term plan includes a safe, comfortable space dedicated to senior animals, currently all of our animals, including those in hospice care, reside in foster homes.

Friends,

We are announcing the closure of Senior Pet and Animal Rescue with sincere gratitude for the support we've received from our community. Since our founding a decade ago, our mission has been clear—to keep senior animals with their families and provide rescue, rehabilitation, and hospice care for those in need of a new home. Our founders dedicated themselves to ensuring that senior pets had the chance to live out their lives surrounded by love and care, and we are so grateful for the community's unwavering support throughout the years.

We extend our deepest thanks to everyone who supported our efforts, whether through donations, fostering, or helping spread the word. Your compassion has made a lasting impact on the lives of so many animals.

As we close this chapter, we encourage everyone to continue supporting rescue organizations and consider adopting senior pets. These animals may have a bit more life experience, but they offer just as much love and companionship in return. Thank you for being part of our mission to make the world a better place for senior animals.

The best boy and the best momma. You gave us more than we could have ever imagined 💚

In 2017 we weren't sure if we'd have seven weeks with our dear Milo, who battled with cancer. Seven YEARS later, he still continues to amaze us 💚

And we 💯 know that his mom Jen is the reason. Her unending love and constant care has given our one-eyed hospice pug the absolute best life a senior pet could ever hope to have.

While we haven't been active on social media lately, we have been working hard behind the scenes to keep our seniors and those in our community happy and healthy.

As we head into National Senior Pet Month in November, please consider supporting our mission. Your financial contribution helps animals like our Sport and Milo, in addition to fabulous felines like Stormy. From costly vet bills and medicine to specific foods and supplements, your donations provide much-needed items to some of our favorite senior pets in the area.

Thank you, as always
