🩸Feline Blood Donors: Rare & Essential Heroes🩸

Did you know that cats have two primary blood types, A and B? While type A is more common, type B is incredibly rare—especially in our area! This makes finding type B blood products a challenging task.

We’re so grateful for our newest blood donor, Tolstoy, and his owner Zoe for their invaluable contribution to our blood bank program. Without Tolstoy’s donation, we wouldn’t have had the necessary blood available for a critically ill cat in need.

Please help us by encouraging cat owners to participate in this life-saving program. If your cat qualifies, there are many benefits, including free yearly screenings and preventatives. Let’s work together to save more lives! ❤️

🌟Our Heroes, Our Lifesavers🌟

Did you know that Immune Mediated Hemolytic Anemia (IMHA) can cause a pet's immune system to attack its own red blood cells? This severe condition leads to life-threatening anemia, requiring urgent blood transfusions to stabilize and save the patient. 🩸

At the Animal Blood Bank of Arkansas, our dedicated donors are the unsung heroes who make these life-saving transfusions possible. Every donation helps restore the red blood cells that IMHA patients so desperately need to survive and thrive. 🐾💉

Your pet could be a lifesaver, too! Join our community of donors and help us continue to provide the critical blood products that give patients a fighting chance. ❤️

Chewie completed the ultimate good boy deed and is now an official member of our Blood Bank! 🩸 Last week, he donated 410 ml, which created 2 bags of blood and 1 bag of plasma!

Chewie’s donations help save local dogs' lives, just like his brofur Leo's was saved a few years back. We are so grateful to his owner for honoring Leo’s memory and giving back to the community. Chewie gets extra food and attention on donation days, plus FREE flea/tick & heartworm prevention while he’s an active donor!
