Angel's Wish

Angel’s Wish is an all-volunteer, nonprofit 501(c)3 organization founded in 2000. Mission Statement Angel’s Wish is dedicated to reducing animal overpopulation, rehoming companion animals, and raising awareness of animal welfare issues in South Central Wisconsin. Why are we called Angel's Wish? Lois Lawrence, a founding member of Angel's Wish, once rescued a kitten from a construction site. Weak with starvation, dehydration, and a severe upper respiratory infection, neither veterinary treatment nor Lois’ love and care could save the kitten from the effects of that hot June day. Angel died that night in Lois' arms. We believe that Angel's Wish would have been that no other animal be subjected to pain, suffering, abandonment or neglect. About the Animals of Angel’s Wish We divert animals from ever arriving at area shelters, and as space allows, assist rescue groups and shelters. We accept only animals we have space to care for, and euthanize only for severe medical or temperament reasons. Animals stay in their current home or are cared for in volunteer foster homes until adoptive homes are found.

Angel's Wish serves South Central Wisconsin from our primary location in Verona and has welcomed adopters from throughout the Midwest. Our animals come primarily from Dane, Iowa, Green, Rock, Sauk, Grant, and Columbia counties, as well as other counties in Wisconsin.
