Orphan Animal Rescue & Sanctuary: Emergency Medical Grant Report

How did this grant help your organization and the pets in your care?

The grant received was used to offset the costs for an emergency dental visit for one of our adult cats.

Our organization is completely volunteer-driven and funded only through grants and community fundraising. Dental visits are not cheap. This grant helped offset the costs associated with an emergency visit.

Tessa came back to us because her owner was no longer able to provide for her. Once she was back in our care, we noticed she needed some serious dental work. Despite the costs, we got her in as quickly as possible and they ended up extracting three teeth! Through resilience (and a lot of wet food ^_^) Tessa was able to quickly bounce back and found her forever home on Nov. 29, 2015; she is now happy and healthy!
