A message from the President and Co-Founder, Gina Jenio:
If I could have one wish, it would be that I didn’t have to pick and choose who we can and can’t help but funds are limited and decisions are made based on the donations we receive.
For example and clarity, in one day the need for help consisted of a stray cat with an injured front leg, a stray cat with injured rear legs, an orphaned kitten in need of bottle feeding, a stray cat with severe dental disease that can not eat, a pregnant cat living on a roof needing to go “today” because of eviction, a stray who just had babies and now has a pyometra (infection), and then this kitten named Red (pictured) found with tears of blood from his eyes. It is heart wrenching.
This doesn’t include any of the daily requests for help from good Samaritans finding strays in need of placement, vetting, spay, neutering, rehoming, etc. Resources are scarce and almost non-existent because of the overwhelming need for help.
We are deeply grateful for your generous support, but to continue our vital work we need donations. Please consider donating today.
Thank you,
Gina
