Please provide a story of one or more specific pets this grant helped.

Comfrey is a male lionhead mix. This little boy was one of 14 taken from a garage. He has a very sweet and easygoing personality and would love to have his own home soon. He is friendly and a great litter-box user.

Wayne is a male New Zealand who is a large boy who luckily was found before he suffered too much out there on his own. He is very sweet and would do well in a home where he can get the love he deserves.

Ronan is a male, blue-eyed Dutch mix who is a very sweet little guy who should do well in almost any home. He is a youngster, so he is energetic and loves playing. Lucky for him, his mom was rescued just prior to giving birth, so he and his siblings were in a safe and loving home.

Rowan is a male Dutch mix and this little guy was born at a kind Samaritan’s home after they rescued his mom from being loose. He is very sweet, a bit hand-shy, but doing well in learning that we are not a threat and we are kind humans. He would do great in almost any home.

Chill is a male satin mix; this handsome little boy was found in a yard in Lake County along with what appears to be a sister from a different litter. Sadly, three others were not as lucky, as they were killed by a predator. Chill is anything but that – he loves attention, loves his food, and is a super-sweet guy.

Winifred is a female Holland lop who was left in her cage at the Citrus County Humane Society. We are not sure why this happened, as she is very sweet, loves attention, and is a beautiful girl. We believe Winifred is deaf and perhaps that was the reason they left her.
