Clear the Shelter Update On Saturday, August 18th, shelters across America participated in Clear the Shelters event. The goal was for shelters to waive adoption fees to encourage adopters to add a family member at no cost. HT was successful that day in placing 44 dogs and 6 cats into homes with reduced or waived fees. And for that, we are super grateful. However this event is very difficult for private rescues like ours, as we rely on our adoption fees to cover our medical costs and to pay it forward for our special needs animals. By participating in this event, we lost out on $7,000 in adoption fees on Saturday. And that directly impacts our ability to take in more animals this next week. It's a very tough call for us each year as to whether we want to participate. We of course love that 50 animals found their homes...we just worry about those who need us now. Your sponsorship donations ALWAYS save lives. And this week, we need it more than ever. We need to get 100% of these animals sponsored. These are only a fraction of the animals we are trying to save. So please, share this week's email widely to help us keep going. Meet Our Must Have Animals Our weekly wish list of dogs and cats to save! Each week we seek to rescue new animals from our rural shelter partners before they face euthanasia due to space. It is essential that we secure sponsorship for these animals in order to cover their initial vetting and transport costs. We had great success from our wonderful Facebook supporters, but the new algorithm has drastically hurt our ability to reach out! To ensure we can continue to say YES to these puppies, dogs, kittens and cats, each week we will share with you some of our must have animals in hopes you will consider donating to their sponsor costs. Time is running out for these dogs Once we receive word from our shelter partners, we have very limited time to act and save these dogs before our weekly transports each Wednesday! If we cannot secure sponsorship for these dogs by Tuesday night, they may never get a second chance. Will you help us in these final 24 hours so we can save more lives?
