Compassion Animal Project

Compassion Animal Project is unleashing hope for pets and pet owners across the country. Our nationwide non-profit organization provides families in need with financial assistance for life-saving veterinary care. Founded in 2021 by a veterinarian, Compassion Animal Project is supported by generous donors, veterinary practices, referral centers, volunteers, and people like you.

To carry out our mission, Compassion Animal Project partners with veterinary referral centers across the country to offer our services to families in need. Since launching our programs, we established partnerships with 16 veterinary hospitals across 9 different states. We harness the power of compassion to help create a world where no pet owner ever lets finances be a determining factor in the health or wellbeing of their pets, and we are continuing to expand our reach to make this ambitious vision a reality. 

With the help of our generous supporters, we have been able to get pets like Rosie the care she needed. 

Rosie, a 3-year-old German Shepherd, has been a cherished member of her family since 2019. She is just as crazy about her family as they are for her, having been described as protecting, loving, and more patient than a machine.

One day, Rosie suffered from a sudden and severe allergic reaction. As the runt of her litter, her body struggled to fight against it. She stopped eating and drinking and was suddenly drained of all energy. Her family quickly recognized this as a state of emergency and took her to Memphis Veterinary Specialists to receive overnight care. Between many appointments and hospital stays, Rosie spent about two weeks recovering from this sudden condition.

To no surprise, such a quick and in-depth level of veterinary treatments left Rosie's family facing a heap of expenses. This scenario easily could have forced her family to have to elect euthanasia, a devastating outcome they never would have expected for such a young and energetic dog. However, thanks to Compassion Animal Project, Rosie's family was able to move forward with the care she required without the burden of unaffordable expenses.

Because Memphis Veterinary Specialists is a Compassion Animal Project partner, her treating veterinarian was able to refer her family to our organization once they realized that the projected expenses were likely too high for the family to take on alone. CAP awarded Rosie's family a life-saving grant of $2,336 to cover her medical expenses, and because her veterinarian is a CAP partner, they agreed to discount the cost of her care by 25%. According to Rosie's family, "Rosie is here today because of the great work of our vet, the compassion of CAP, and the blessings of God.  We are so grateful."
