Orphan Animal Rescue & Sanctuary, Inc. is a nonprofit, no-kill, volunteer-driven animal rescue and sanctuary that consists of a small network of foster care homes, community partners, and a small Adoption Center in Neenah, Wisconsin.

We were founded in September, 2008 by animal lovers who saw the need in the Fox Cities community to save the lives of more homeless pets and set in motion the steps needed to ensure a future in which there are no more homeless pets in Wisconsin.

The majority of our efforts are to help cats, kittens, dogs and puppies, and we also help other small animals such as bunnies and guinea pigs, as we have the capacity available.

The pets we help primarily come from other local rescue groups and humane organizations when they need help or are over capacity. We pride ourselves on the high quality of care we provide to each and every animal. We feed high-quality foods and adhere to strict standards to ensure the best medical care is given to all pets in our care.

We receive no funding; we rely completely on donations to save the lives of the homeless pets in our care. We always have a waiting list of pets in need.

With your help, we can create a network of animal lovers who will change the world—one homeless pet at a time.
