Amos is a new arrival at the shelter, but already we can tell that he is a complete sweetheart. When he first arrived, his hair was so matted that it was a solid mass on his body filled with foxtails and burrs. Underneath the mass of tangles, he was suffering from several open sores from the foxtails, which had become infected. After being shaved and treated with antibiotics, our vet discovered that this poor guy was also suffering from a broken pelvis.
He is recovering well and is already much more comfortable and happy.
If you would like to help sponsor Amos's treatment, your contribution will go a long way and will be greatly appreciated! www.santacruzspca.org/donate.html When you sponsor a pet, you not only help the animal listed, you make it possible for us to continue rescuing animals with special needs which would otherwise be euthanized in overcrowded shelters. Your support literally means the difference between life and death for those animals.
The Santa Cruz SPCA is a non-profit charitable organization which receives no public funding. All of our animals and programs rely solely on the generosity and kindness of private donors.
