Grace & Friends Medical Fund


Sometimes MCAW shelter animals need medical assistance for ailments and injuries. Some of these may be emergency situations, requiring immediate funding in order to alleviate pain and suffering, or they may be chronic issues.




Grace came into the shelter on July 9th, transferred from an ER. Grace was most likely hit by a car. No one showed up to claim her. She is young, probably under a year old. Grace had very little mobility and could not stand on her own. The initial recommendation from the ER vet was euthanization.  We committed to giving her a chance.  Today, after surgery and months of physical therapy, Grace has made a full recovery and found her forever family who loves her very much!
