Save a Life Drive 2010!

Anyone that knows me is aware of my work with Austin Pets Alive. I pull puppies from The Town Lake Animal Center that are on the euthanasia list. It is so rewarding to me and the best part, I always have the sweet pitter padder of little paws around which brings so much joy to our life! Those who has never had the experience of having a loving loyal 4 legged companion should try fostering first, if it works out and you end of asking yourself, "So this is what I'm missing?" you should consider adoption. If not you should consider donating to these sweet innocent little guys. Even a buck will change their luck! Any donations would certainly be appreciated no matter how small or large.

Love you all!

As the new Austin Pets Alive building is coming together, we are more and more capable of saving that many more pets from euthanasia. The Save a Life Drive gives us the ability to continue saving lives when adoptions and donations tend to decrease in the fall after school starts. As you can imagine, the numbers of animals needing to be saved does not correspondingly decrease this time of year so it is even more critical that we band together to give all those dogs and cats a happy ending.

Each animal costs us about $100 for spay/neuter, vaccinations, microchipping, testing, and parasite treatments. If we raise those funds, it will be that much easier for APA to continue paying the costs for housing, adoption sites, vehicles, and all the other costs that go into saving lives.

My goal is to raise $5,000 to save 50 lives!
