Our #GivingTuesdayNow Stories, Made Possible by You 

Chickpea was rescued by ACR when she was less than a week old. Her eyes weren't even open and she had been orphaned on the streets. She was fighting an infection on her umbilical cord and parasites. Initially she struggled to latch on to the bottle when fed, but she soon got the hang of it thanks to her loving and attentive foster family. She is now one month old and making tremendous progress. Her care was made possible thanks to your ongoing support.
Picture
Our lovely boy Figaro who lost his leg due to a leg-hold trap could not be any sweeter. He has adapted to three legs beautifully and is healing well. Figaro’s whole foot was cut off from the ankle, sliced right through the bone. He then limped around on that stump, breaking the skin and causing infection and bleeding. If he had not been rescued his outlook would have been very bleak. ACR rescued him from the shelter and took him immediately to our veterinarian for treatment and leg amputation. ACR uses our Compassion Fund for needy cats to pay the vet bills. 

Picture
While picking up feral cats from a shelter, ACR were approached by a man that had tried to drop off two kittens at the building. However the shelter was shut. He had found them outside a store on his lunch hour and could not return them back to that location. We took the kittens from the man, provided them with medical attention, and accepted them into our foster program. None of this would have been possible without your generous donations to our Compassion Fund.
