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

Thirteen-year-old Missy came to CAHS after her owner passed away suddenly. Thanks in part to this generous grant, our medical staff gave her an exam and got her vaccines up-to-date, and she was put up for adoption. She quickly became a staff and volunteer favorite due to her spunky personality. Unfortunately, she was overlooked for a few weeks, as many potential adopters chose young kittens. Finally, after about a month at our shelter, her new family stopped by. They fell in love with her, and she is now a part of their family.
