Farm Animals

We do not just look after household pets!

Hoarding of Animals

• In one situation 61 dogs, 6 cats, 4 birds and 8 small animals were taken in by our shelter from your area.

• In just 2 days our costs were $10,000.00 due to vet bills, medications and special foods and treatments.

• The public did help out, but not nearly enough

If everyone could do their part

• We are asking for an amount of $2,000 to help us fund our investigations in your area.

• I will be making requests from the other Communities in the hopes that as a group the financial responsibilities are shouldered by all.

• It is also our wish that you could make this a yearly contribution to our cause.

We can’t save everyone, but we can try to put an end to their

suffering
