Animal Rescue League of Southern Rhode Island: A Shot at Life Vaccination Grant Report

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

We received cat distemper vaccinations which has allowed us to vaccinate all our incoming cats and keep our existing cats up to date.

This allowed us to make sure all are our cats are vaccinated at the time of intake to prevent illness and to keep the current animals in our care up to date.

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

Bruce and Scarlet were abandoned in a foreclosed home by their owners when a neighbor sought our help for their care. We did not have any vaccination history on these two and vaccinated them upon intake. Peaches and her two kittens, Paulie and Peter, came from a home where they were not taken care of and mom Peaches was on her second litter. One of her kittens had passed away from neglect prior to arriving at our shelter. We gave them their vaccinations upon intake.
