THOSE ADDED EXPENSES…$25.00/month
Every so often we get newborn puppies
and kittens that need special mother’s
replacement milk to survive or a cat or dog that needs special food. A badly
matted cat or a dog with very dry skin will need special attention. For only
83 cents a day, the money raised here will be used to enhance the well being
of all shelter animals.

A DOG KENNEL…$100.00/month
It costs the shelter approximately $3.33
a day to house our dogs and puppies. We are always full to capacity with
dogs and puppies awaiting loving
homes. With daily walks and lots of attention, our adult dogs are always
happy to meet new friends!

 | VETERINARY
BILLS…$80.00/month
From booster shots to spaying and neutering,
from frostbitten ears to hernia operations, our animals are always getting
the best of care. Any pet
owner will know, veterinary bills add up. This is a huge expense for
the shelter as every animal coming in gets health checked and will
have immediate treatment when necessary.

 | RENT
FUND…
If we could get 45 people to donate $75.00
a month each… It costs the shelter
approximately $3,400 a month to keep a roof over our heads. With all those
precious animals in our care, we need to make them feel safe and loved in a
clean and friendly environment until the right family comes along to adopt
them. With no government funding, this is a huge expense for the shelter as
well.

SHELTER EXPANSION FUND….TARGET $50,000
Great News! We are expanding! We will be
able to care for even more abandoned, abused or unwanted animals. We need
to build additional cat cages and
dog kennels, build a new bird aviary and replace our existing dog kennels
and puppy pens. We need to make a separate room for our special needs
and sick pets so they can get better away from all the hustle and noise
of the daily shelter routine.
