The last six months have been a period of transition for Nine Lives Foundation. When Dr. Rudiger retired at the end of December, we faced the difficult challenge of figuring out how to keep Nine Lives going strong. But with so many cats and kittens needing help, we had to make it happen!
Since then, we've assembled an outstanding team of veterinarians, technicians, and assistants to help us continue our life-saving mission of rescuing at-risk cats and providing desperately needed spay and neuter services to the community. We've ramped up our rescue efforts, expanded our adoption hours, and are placing more and more cats in happy homes.
We can never replace Dr. Rudiger, but her legacy and vision for Nine Lives continues in our commitment to giving more cats a chance for a happy ending.
Over the next few weeks we'll be sharing some highlights from the first half of the year. These will include updates on staffing, our spay/neuter efforts, and of course, rescues and adoptions!
We are also setting a goal of raising $30,000 by July 1st to cover costs for medical equipment repairs (e.g., x-ray machine) and replacements (e.g., surgical light and dental machine). Your donations mean we can rescue more cats, provide life-saving treatment to more cats, and find loving, forever homes for more cats.
As we continue to grow, we are relying on the support of our Nine Lives community more than ever! Please consider supporting us with a recurring donation, which gives us stability and ensures that Nine Lives will be around for years to come.
