Thanks again to everyone for your support at the Paws and
Claws 5K. Because of our generous clients, we are able to continue to help many
animals in need. So far, with the help of your donations, we have purchased
nearly $1,000 worth of food for local animal shelters! We have also ordered
indestructible Kongs for the many dogs that live at the local Frederick
Maryland shelters that are waiting for their forever home. We will be updating
you as these orders come in and are delivered directly to animals who need them
most.
In addition to the food and toys that were donated, we have
also decided to sponsor a homeless kitty in need of medical care. We would like
you to meet Coconut.
Coconut is a 6 year old female spayed kitty that is
currently available for adoption and living at Frederick County Animal Control
(FCAC). While Coconut is a very sweet and affectionate girl, she has not yet
been adopted, possibly due to some medical concerns. That is where Kingsbrook
Animal Hospital and the donations made to the Kylie and Cricket Fund helped!
Because of your donations, KAH was able to address those concerns so that she
has a better chance at finding her new home. When we first met Coconut, she had
severe dental disease and a heart murmur. Through the Kylie and Cricket Fund,
KAH was able to perform blood work and radiographs on Coconut. After assessing her anesthetic risk, she then
received a dental exam and cleaning. While reviewing full mouth dental x-rays,
Dr. Davis confirmed that her teeth cleaned up nicely and no extractions were
necessary!
Coconut is now all set to move into her forever home! She is a sweet, beautiful girl who enjoys
friendly people, playing with her toy mouse, and taking long naps on the couch.
Please contact Frederick County Animal Control for more information regarding
her adoption. Thanks again to all those who donated to the Kylie and Cricket
Fund which allowed us to help Coconut and other animals in need.
