You are very important in helping us fund our project to save Florida's animals from euthanasia. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you so much for chipping in to save these voiceless cats and dogs. Too many animals are needlessly put down every day because their owners gave up on them, discarded them or just couldn't afford the veterinary care their pet required.
Pictured are Bubba, a 7 year old cat who escaped his home and was attacked by another animal. Bubba had sustained multiple wounds on his tail, an abcess and the tip of his tail had to be amputated. His owner was faced with a $2500.00 vet bill or euthanizing Bubba. We contacted the veterinarian, negotiated the bill and helped Bubba's owner to pay the bill.
Princess is a 12 year old Pitbull whose owner reached out to us for help with tumors on her dog. Princess had a tumor on her neck, a huge tumor on her shoulder and another on her stomach. All 3 were soft and cytology showed them as Lipomas (non cancerous). We helped with the funding and Princess recovered quickly.
Kyle, a 2 year old Pit mix who was hit by a car and sustained a fractured pelvis leaving him unable to walk. Kyle is a super sweet boy whose owner didn't claim him and our county shelter was going to euthanize him. We rescued Kyle, our veterinarian performed emergency surgery on him and he was fully recovered & walking in 10 weeks.
Lucky, a 2 year old fluffball was not so lucky when his owner surrendered him to a county shelter because he was urinating all over the house. We investigated further and found that Lucky had bladder stones which we had surgically removed.Oherwise he would have been euthanized.
Scrappy is an 8 month old pup that was recovered from a dog fighter. He had multiple wounds, laceratons and a broken jaw. Despite the abuse he sustained during his short life, he is a super sweet, friendly dog that just needed love. Our vets fixed him up as good as new and Scrappy went to a wonderful home.
Ceasar is a 2 year old Miniature Pinscher that was surrendered to us because his owner couldn't afford surgery to remove the mass on Ceasar's stomach/side. Our vet removed it and fortunately it was just a fatty mass.
There are so many more stories similar to these and we help to save as many as we can. That's why it's so important that you continue to help us whenever you can. We appreiate every dollar we receive and it's all used for the animals.
