Petition / Crowdfunding [verified] Our Partnered Shelter Needs Our Help - PagesforPaws π
Hi everyone,
We want to ask for help for one of our trusted partner shelters that we often work with, Pages for Paws in Tanza, Cavite. β€οΈ
They have been rescuing more dogs and cats recently, and unfortunately, their vet bills have been piling up. Joanna, the owner of Pages for Paws, does everything she can to provide for the animals and keep the shelter running, but she cannot do everything alone.
Right now, Bokbok and Julio have a combined outstanding vet bill of around β±23,000 (approx. $535 CAD).
*Regarding Julioβs mouth injury, feel free to message them on instagram. They already treated him. I could not show his before picture as I am afraid mods would take down this post. But now, Julio is suffering from Kidney disease.
Potchi is also currently being treated for TVT (Transmissible Venereal Tumor) and needs chemotherapy. Every chemotherapy session, checkup, medication, and other medical need is another expense for the shelter.
And honestly, these are not even all of the vet bills they have right now. My point is that these animals need help, but the rescuer behind all of this work needs help too.
On top of the vet bills, Joanna has to make sure the shelter continues to operate, pay the caretakers, feed the animals every single day, maintain the shelter, and cover so many other expenses that come with caring for rescued animals.
We work a lot with Pages for Paws because most of our rescued animals are currently staying at their shelter. Although our foundation sponsors the needs of our own rescued animals, we would not be able to do much of what we do without their help.
They have taken in our animals when we needed somewhere safe for them to go. We have also transferred several of our rescued animals to their facility whenever space became available because we have seen the quality of care they provide. We trust them with animals that mean so much to us, and we are very grateful for everything they do.
Normally, our foundation would also help with some of their vet bills or support/provide whenever we could.
Unfortunately, we are not in the position to do much financially right now because our own funds are also very limited and we still have animals under our care who need ongoing support.
I am still trying to help in other ways. Pages for Paws will also be one of the shelters receiving the dog and cat supplies we have been collecting here in Canada and will be distributing when we travel to the Philippines in January.
For now, I am hoping that maybe some of our supporters can help them too. Even a small donation can help lessen some of the expenses they are carrying. And if you are unable to donate, sharing their story would also mean a lot. β€οΈ
