It’s $5 Friday!!

Meet Stella! Stella, 9 years old, recently came to PCHS with a variety of health issues. She has bladder stones and a bad UTI (Urinary Tract Infection). She had surgery this week at H&H in Benson and handled surgery well but will be staying over the weekend.
Despite not feeling well, we’ve discovered that Bella likes being brushed and loves sunbathing while watching what’s going on outside 🐱

We could use your help to raise $1,200 to help cover her medical bills.
We love helping every animal in need, but it doesn’t take long for medical bills to add up in these special cases. There is no donation to big or too small; every little bit helps.

Will you help support Stella? 🐱

We have some exciting news to share: we will soon be moving into a brand new facility! The new facility will be located right down the street from our current facility. The new facility has so many features that we are excited about, including larger daycare rooms, lots of outdoor space, and brand new boarding suites.

To make this move possible we will be closed for all daycare and boarding from 4/8/24-5/5/24. If everything goes as planned will we will reopen at our new facility on May 6th, 2024. If you have a grooming appointment scheduled during the time we are closed we will be reaching out to you soon.

As we get closer to opening at our new facility we be sending out various updates and information that you’ll need to know, so please keep an eye out for future emails from us.

Thank you so much for supporting us! It wouldn’t have been possible without amazing customers like you!

Sincerely,
Jackie and Cassie Corson

We would like to introduce you to a special boy named Valor.

Valor was brought into us as a stray by a caring individual who found him in a rural area. They immediately noticed that he was very skinny, badly matted and had something wrong with his leg. Valor was extremely friendly and they took him home to provide food and water until they were able to bring him to LAHS. We found that he was unable to put any weight on his front leg.
The individual who found Valor was very generous and donated money to cover the cost of x-rays to determine how bad the injury was.

Once the veterinary exam and x-rays were completed, it was determined that he had not just one fracture, but two significant fractures. Both of Valor’s bones in his lower leg were completely broken and displaced and he has a severely broken elbow. Sadly, due to the severity of the elbow fractures, there is no way to repair them. As he would always have pain, it was recommended that his leg be amputated.

We have Valor’s amputation surgery scheduled next week. We are humbly asking for your assistance to help us cover the costs associated of surgery and after-care, which are estimated to be $500. This surgery will ensure that Valor will no longer have pain and live a happy, healthy life as a part of the “tri-pod club”.

Donations can be done in person at LAHS, via our website (www.lakesareahumanesociety.org) or by Venmo .
Please add a note that your contribution is for “Valor”.
