Humane Society of the Palouse: A Shot at Life Vaccination Grant Report

How did this grant help your organization and the pets in your care?

We received a grant of 4 boxes of FVRCP vaccines. We were able to vaccinate many cats at no cost to our shelter

Since we were able to get four free boxes of vaccines we were able to free up funds that could be used for other lifesaving procedures on animals at our shelter.

How many pets did this grant help?

We were able to vaccinate 50 cats and kittens twice with the vaccines we received

Please provide a story of one or more specific pets this grant helped.

We received 13 cats from one person in our county. None of these cats had ever been vaccinated and with the donation of this grant we were able to vaccinate all of them. Each adult cat received two shots and each kitten received three shots. Since all of these cats came from a colony we were very concerned with diseases that could be transmitted to our other cats in the facility. With these vaccines we were able to guarantee the safety of the 13 new cats and the cats currently in the shelter.
