Medical Treatment
Getting the animals out of the facility and into homes is crucial to their long-term success. Releasing treated animals after the appropriate period does not pose a health threat to the community.
To help reduce the spread of the disease in the community, ASFAC encourages pet owners to keep their pets up to date on vaccines, avoid communal water bowls, and seek medical advice from a veterinarian if any symptoms, such as a cough or runny nose, develop or worsen.
Donations Needed
We greatly appreciate your generosity! We need monetary donations, pet supplies, Kuranda beds for our dogs, and KMR milk and bottles for our kittens.
