A Friends of Animals Success Story: Hershey's Happy Ending

A home is found through Friends of Animals

Hershey was a scruffy looking black kitty.  Either of these attributes can make getting adopted difficult.  Taken together, it meant Hershey was likely to be in the foster system a long time.

Hershey never gave up hope and neither did Friends of Animals.  Along came a gentleman with a huge heart.  He read Hershey's story, came to the foster home to meet him and it was love at first sight!  No stranger to loving special cats  -- one missing an eye, one with three legs --  this dear man could care less about Hershey's scruffy fur and saw only the beauty behind the battered exterior.  It's a match made in heaven.

Will you be the angel that gives a rescue pet his happy ending?   Many sweet homeless cats, dogs, kittens and puppies are waiting for new homes. If you can't adopt, you can still  help --  donate, volunteer, buy treats at the bake sale, or temporarily offer your home as a foster family.  Most of all, please do your part by spay/neutering and microchipping your own pets and helping trap for neuter the ferals in your neighborhood.
