March 2016 Case Update

In March 2016, Fur Kids Foundation had nine families apply for assistance, and we were able to help four of those families (with four still in progress)—for a total of $521.14 given in aid. Below is a rundown of the cases we provided assistance to:

1. A puppy who was hit by a car who we helped cross the rainbow bridge
2. A dog who got out of a fenced yard and was hit by a car
3. A cat who had an allergic reaction to their new food
4. A cat who had an abscess on their tail
5. In progress: a dog who has a broken leg and damaged paw as a result of a car accident with its owner; a dog with a fractured hip after being hit by a car; a cat with rotten teeth; and a cat with possible inner ear issues.

As you can see, we’ve seen a lot of cases recently with dogs who have gotten out of their owners yard or house, and have been struck by a car. In June 2013, Fur Kids Foundation wrote a blog about dog proofing your back yard. Please take a minute to read this blog to see if there are things you can do to make your yard safer for your pets.

We are grateful for the dedication of Fur Kids Foundation volunteers and supporters who have helped these families stay happy and healthy, and together! When you volunteer, attend an event, or help us raise money by supporting the businesses who support us with promotions, these families are who you are helping. Thank you again for all that you do for the Foundation, and for families with pets in Campbell County, Wyoming.
