Pandora's Fund Donation Button

Pandora's illness was as mysterious as her name.   Pandora belongs to a feral cat colony that was abandoned by the person who had been feeding them when she moved and left them behind.  Safe Haven has since been feeding the cats and has had them neutered. Pandora was found during the last snowstorm unable to walk and dragging herself with her front paws. 
 
Assuming an injury with broken bones, we immediately took her to a Veterinarian for X-Rays.  It turned out she had no visible injuries, but she was developing life-threatening breathing problems, so she was referred to the Neurology Department of a specialty veterinary practice.  A CAT Scan revealed that she had a massive tumor pressing on her spine impeding her ability to walk and breath normally.  As any true No-Kill organization would do, Safe Haven decided to go ahead with the lifesaving and expensive special surgery. 
 
The surgery was a success and, thankfully for Pandora, the tumor turned out to be infection-based and benign.  On the 4th day after surgery Pandora stood up and on the 5th day she was walking again.
 
Please consider donating to Safe Haven Animal Sanctuary's newly created Pandora's Fund to help defray the cost of Pandora's life-saving surgery and to help save more lives.  

Donations to Pandora's Fund will go directly towards emergency medical care for Sussex County feral/barn cats who have been neutered through Safe Haven's Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) program and for dogs in Safe Haven's Dog Transport program.
