We have a dream......and we have found our dream property!

The PetPromise Pet City Lounge & Adoption Center

We are excited to share our plan for the PetPromise Pet City Lounge:  A revolutionary concept for sheltering and caring for rescued homeless pets in Columbus, Ohio.  The PetPromise Pet City Lounge & Adoption Center will be a first of its kind cageless home-like sanctuary for dogs and cats where people from the community can come in, enjoy coffee, tea, or sodas, unwind, socialize, and relax while in the company of rescued cats and dogs.  It will be a place where people and pets connect.  The overall concept is that people and animals will spend their days together… not separated by cages, kennels, or glass. The PetPromise Pet City Lounge & Adoption Center will be a place where people can gather to spend time with the rescued pets while enjoying a beverage or snack, working, surfing the internet, watching television, or just getting to know the pets in a cozy, fun environment designed to feel like home to the animals. And after years of planning and development, we are ready to make this happen in 2025.  But we need your help. 

​

We have identified a property with a perfect building in the heart of Columbus, with 5,100 square feet of space where we can build out semi-cageless cat and dog “zones” where cats and dogs can live in an unconfined home-like environment that is comfortable, safe, and happy for them and the people who visit them.  The PetPromise Pet City Lounge will be place where people hang out, visit, spend time with, and adopt PetPromise dogs and cats, and where they can volunteer and make a difference for abandoned and homeless pets in our community.

The plan includes large open spaces with communal living for cats and kittens and a separate space for dogs and puppies with natural light and furniture and a home-like feel. A place where a volunteer or visitor can sit down, read a book with a cat on their lap, or gather to watch a game while two dogs lie next to them.

​

The Cat Zone will feature open communal cat and people living areas with cozy ledges and vertical spaces, Wi-Fi, comfortable seating, and a real feeling of "home" for our cat residents and visitors and volunteers. The Dog Zone will be made up of large open spaces for communal cageless dog fun and a warm and cheerful with dog agility equipment, comfy furniture, doggy dens, meeting spaces for visitors, and large “bedrooms” for the dogs to retreat to at night or when they need their own space. (Of course, the center will have an isolation area where new pets are quarantined prior to entry into a group setting and a space for on-site grooming and minor medical care (vaccinations, vet checks, etc.)

 

This progressive concept in caring for homeless cats and dogs and bringing people and pets together in a homelike environment will be a model for animal care and adoption centers everywhere. We have identified a 5,100+ square foot building located in Columbus near Grandview Heights in a well-traveled and high visibility area that will be the perfect home for the PetPromise Pet City Lounge & Adoption Center. We believe that true animal rescue is not just about saving the dog or cat and providing shelter… but it is as much about how those animals live life while they are in our care. We want the PetPromise Pet City Lounge & Adoption Center to be a place that is happy for the pets that live there as well as the people who come to visit.

 

But we really need you to be part of our team and to help us make the PetPromise Pet City Lounge a reality in 2025. We are seeking monetary donations of any size to purchase the building this year. We have identified the property; we just need the funding to make it a reality. Our goal is to secure $700,000 to purchase the site and building we have found and to build it out and furnish it so that we can open our doors and welcome the public in to help us save the lives of hundreds of homeless pets in 2025 and thousands more in the future! Please share with your employer, your friends, your family, your neighbors, businesses you frequent… no donation is too small! They are out there waiting for us and with your help, we can do this!​​
