Second Chance Fund

Biscuit is the sweetest cat you’ll ever find. And like most of us, he has a few medical issues. Biscuit suffered from a fractured pelvis, split tooth and broken left rear femur. Because of that, many shelters would euthanize him. But not us. With your help, we intervened on his behalf and brought him to our shelter. His leg was amputated, his split tooth pulled, and finally, he was adopted out to his forever family.

Similarly, many shelters view dogs like year-old Cucumber as a burden to avoid. Cucumber came to us as a stray from a West Oakland junkyard and had severe gastrointestinal distress and generalized fear and anxiety. But we fell in love with his sweet demeanor. Over several weeks of working closely with volunteers and staff, we helped him overcome his fear and shyness. He now has a forever home near Lake Merritt.

Thanks to the generous support from your donations, we are always by the side of animals like Biscuit and Cucumber, every day, year after year. Our 2018 Second Chance Fund will provide all the care, attention, and time they need to find a new family. Please donate as generously as you can today.
