Honey

Honey

Honey

Please view the photos at your discretion, but the pain is real and heartbreaking. Puppies deserve a warm belly of food, a vaccination poke here and there, and time to get into trouble chewing on shoes and learning to potty outside. Unfortunately, Honey has not been given such a great life. Honey is a sweet, scared, young puppy who has spent more time at the vet than any animal should. When Honey came in to the shelter, she had a very large swollen neck. We knew she was bit by something, and she was rushed to the vet. Honey had a 50% chance of survival. Honey was a stray puppy who showed up at someone's house, probably dumped because there are not enough homes for all the unwanted litters in Lawrence county. Honey spent two nights at the vet, received drain tubes, then recently went in to be sedated and receive stitches. Honey will also have to go back to the vet for more procedures to finish the healing process from what is believed to be a snake bite. All of this means more and more vet bills. Without support from the community, WRHS could not save animals like Honey. The medical problems are coming in much faster than the donations to cover them. Please support the animals who need our help like Honey by donating to our medical fund. Honey would also love a special foster with no costs involved, just a loving home for Honey to trust humans and continue her healing process. Thank you for all of your support in helping WRHS save lives. 

Donations can be made by mailing a check to WRHS, PO Box 792, Bedford, IN  47421, by clicking the link https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=TXX9G8DYEPZUU or by stoping by the shelter. 

Nyla

Honey

Honey

Another sweet, beautiful kitty has landed at WRHS needing our help. When Nyla arrived, she had a terrible large dog/coyote bite wound on her rear leg that was oozing with infection and missing lots of hair. After lots of antibiotics and a quiet foster home, Nyla is slowly showing her playful side and giving lots of love. Nyla is a unique dilute long haired tortie who has the beautiful personality to match it. As soon as Nyla is completely healed and fixed, she will be looking for her forever home. Many injuries lately are hurting the medical fund, and any donations made to help the animals who cannot help themselves would help save lives like many of the animals lately who are suffering and in pain and needing our help. Thank you for all of your support in helping WRHS save lives.
