MarrVelous Pet Rescues & Adoptions

MarrVelous Pet Rescues & Adoptions (MPR) is a nonprofit 501(c)3 corporation officially formed in 2007 out of the love of animals shared by its founding members. Our mission is to unite homeless pets with loving homes and families. The organization is comprised of a "virtual shelter" based out of Marr Properties in Key Largo, Florida. This virtual shelter is a local network of foster families who are dedicated to take in, care for and if needed, rehabilitate or socialize animals in need until they are ready to be placed in permanent loving forever homes. Funding for these services comes solely from donations, which are fully tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law. Animals we adopt out often come to us having been abandoned or relinquished. Some may have injuries, health issues or other medical needs requiring veterinary care, antibiotics or other medications. If no medical history is available, a wellness exam is done, vaccines administered and preventive medications are started. Occasionally there will be behavioral or emotional issues that need to be addressed - perhaps the pet has been neglected or abused and needs to re-learn to trust. And sometimes the animals who come to our care are perfectly happy, healthy, fully trained and respectable little souls who, through no fault of their own, are suddently in need of a new home. The stories are plentiful and the needs are vast. Our foster families, with the assistance of loca veterinarians, take great care in making sure these needs are met. Funding for these services and needs come soley from donations. If you are interested in becoming a foster family for MPR, go to our website and complete an application. Someone will contact you to discuss what it takes to be a foster host family. Learn the rewards that come from lending a hand.

Our adoption application is online at www.marrvelouspetrescues.org or can be completed by hand. Our pets are microchipped, vaccinated and spayed or neutered prior to adoption unless medically inadvisable. If the pet isn't spayed or neutered we collect a $100 deposit which is refunded upon receipt of proof of neuter. Our adoption contract stipulates the pet must be kept up to date on vaccines and on heartworm preventatives. We have no fees but do ask for a donation at the time of adoption.
