The Russ Herron Fund

Hey guys, it's Anna again. I'd like to talk to you about something very near and dear to my heart: Special needs cats. Our little shelter is comprised of approximately 2/3rds cats, many of which come to us with injuries or illnesses.

When dealing with these special needs, we seek out treatment from veterinarians around Isabella County. Often times, the vet offices will give us a discount or offer to help out free of charge. We, along with our cats, can never thank them enough when they do things like that.

But inevitably, there will always be another injured or sick cat who needs our help. And although discounts help tremendously, there are still countless fees for antibiotics, surgeries, and other treatments.

That's when the Russ Herron Fund comes into play. The RHF is specifically designated to help cats entering our facility with life-threatening injuries that require emergency care or surgery. This includes but is not limited to x-rays, eye removals, amputations, mass removals, drain tubes, ultrasounds, and many other diagnostic testing costs.

When you donate to this fund, you're directly impacting lives like Jeepers, an abandoned kitten who needed eye surgery. With help from the RHF, Jeepers was able to receive the care he needed.


Remember, we're all in this together. We are their shelter. You are their future.

Til next time,


Anna
