I designed a website for a friend from work, Raquel, who is involved with a great non profit: Not Without My Pet. The organization helps victims of domestic violence who own animals. Often, people will delay leaving abusive situations because of not knowing how to take their pets with them, and being worried about their pet’s well-being if they leave the animal behind.

Not Without My Pet aims to help those people by “partnering with domestic abuse shelters to establish pet care facilities.” It’s a wonderful cause, and it was fun to design their site for them. Many thanks to programmer Russ for doing the great programming work on it.

I wanted to include some great pet photos on the site and Raquel was awesome at enlisting her friends’ help – she and her friends amassed a bunch of cute and charming snapshots of their pets. I threw in some of my own too. Check out the screenshots below.

And go look at the new website: www.nwomp.org

Diva’s my parents’ amazing mutt. She is intelligent and soulful and likes contemplating stuff.

Huey’s my parents’ other good dog. He is goofy and funny and is a sparkplug of a tank. He is not named after Huey Lewis and his news.

There’s Bonzai, Gab’s parents’ dog, who is very smart and clever and likes going on hikes.
