Licking County Humane Society: A Shot at Life Vaccination Grant Report

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

The product was used to vaccinate approximately 100 cats and kittens.

The grant was a great help to our organization and the cats and kittens in our care. It has been a particularly busy “kitten season” and we have had several litters (and adults!) abandoned in our parking lot. With the help of this grant, our shelter has been able to vaccinate all of these deserted cats and kittens so they can be placed for adoption.

How many pets did this grant help?

We have not used all the vaccinations yet, but we anticipate it to provide vaccines for approximately 100 cats and kittens.

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

A Good Samaritan found a kitten with an injured eye, which unfortunately the doctor was not able to save. The doctor and Good Samaritan donated their time and expenses to have him FeLV tested and surgery on his eye. Since his surgery, FeLV test, and vaccination were covered at no cost to the shelter, we were able to take him, and he will be available for adoption in a few days.
