WE ARE ACCEPTING DONATIONS TO REBUILD! Fix A Friend Spay Neuter Clinic and all equipment is owned by Adopt an Angel. We were flooded with 3-4 feet of water on Monday and 80 cats, 20 dogs and staff were evacuated by boat to the animal shelter because owners and rescues were unable to come back to get them due to flooded roads. The clinic has flood insurance, but that does not cover CONTENTS. We are assessing the damage to equipment and will have a better idea now that we can get inside and floodwaters have subsided. We know we will need washer, dryer, refrigerators, two $20,000 autoclaves, 6 anesthesia machines. The insurance will help build it back to the way it was. However, we have had TWO 500 year floods in 6 years so putting it back the way it was is not the answer. We need to build it back bigger, higher and better than it was and if we could DREAM, we would add in a small adoption center for the cats, kittens and dogs Adopt an Angel rescues---we own two acres. We would love to get off of a septic system and tap into county water. We are talking with our contractor who is meeting with architects to raise the entire building 3-4 feet. We will get a gofundme up soon, but there are other ways to donate to us. All donation checks must be written to Adopt an Angel, since that is the charity behind the clinic. You can donate online at www.adoptanangel.net and put the clinic in the comments. You can mail checks to Adopt an Angel, PO Box 15095, Wilmington, NC 28408. Again, please make the check out to Adopt an Angel. The clinic has done over 120,000 surgeries since 2013 and we typically do over 100 surgeries a day. Over 40 animal rescues and shelters have no way to get their animals fixed until we are rebuilt. We gotta get this done and done FAST! Will you help us?
