Here’s a heartwarming fact about Kindness Ranch Animal Sanctuary in Wyoming: It’s the only animal sanctuary in the U.S. that accepts research animals, provides rehabilitation, and works endlessly to re-home them. This animal sanctuary is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization and relies solely on public support, whether it’s through donations, fostering animals, or visiting the ranch.
Kindness Ranch Animal Sanctuary is a 1,000-acre haven located in the rolling hills of Hartville, Wyoming. Its mission is in two folds: provide a sanctuary and rehabilitation for animals that have been used in laboratory research and ensure that in the future, animals are no longer used in research.

Staying true to its name, Kindness Ranch has provided a sanctuary to at least 1,000 animals since its establishment in 2006. These animals include dogs, cats, horses, cows, pigs, and sheep. They receive round-the-clock care to help them adjust to a new life that is free of experimentation and torture.

The rehabilitation of dogs and cats involves housing them in home-like environments at the ranch with human caretakers, to make them feel loved and comfortable around people again. They live in yurts that have been designed to meet their basic and medical needs.
