We recently received a call we always dread. Fifty-six local animals were living in an overcrowded, unsanitary environment and our help was urgently needed.
Animal Humane Society was at the ready, able to lend a hand and get these animals to safety.
Our Humane Investigations agents quickly removed the dogs, cats, and critters from a space in Morrison County. The animals ranged in age from only months old to more than 12 years old.
Constant exposure to filth had left some with severe upper respiratory infections and skin conditions. Some were dehydrated. All of them were frightened, exhausted, and overwhelmed.
In the coming days and weeks, they will need the vaccines, surgeries, and behavioral care required to prepare them for their second chance. While a case this large requires significant space, time, and resources, AHS is able to serve as a leader in our animal welfare community and meet the needs of every animal thanks to the support of our animal-loving community.
Make a gift to support their ongoing care
Please consider making a gift today. With your support, they’ll have the food, shelter, and safety they need – for as long as they need – while they wait to find their new homes.
