Protecting Pets.
Pursuing Justice.
Nebula’s Foundation assists victims of veterinary negligence and malpractice in their pursuit of justice. We provide financial aid and resources to empower pet parents to seek accountability in veterinary practice and honor their beloved companions.
Built in memory of Nebula — May 07, 2019 to February 20, 2021.
Companion animals are family members, not replaceable objects.
At Nebula’s Foundation, we believe companion pets deserve care, compassion, and meaningful accountability when preventable harm occurs.
“The law should reflect reality: pets are loved as family, grieved as family, and should be protected as family.”
Support delivered through seasonal award cycles.
Nebula’s Foundation opens direct-assistance award cycles periodically as funding and program capacity allow. Our past award cycle provided meaningful support to pet parents seeking accountability, while protecting applicant privacy.

In loving memory of NebulaNebula’s Story: love, loss, and advocacy.
