Healing Animal SCARS BIOGRAPHY

Healing Animal SCARS – Sonya’s Cat & Animal Rescue Society

Helping Every Animal Live

Mission Statement: To rescue and help heal the scars left on felines that are living in the wild, whether the scars be physical or emotional. We provide love, food, shelter, veterinary care, and finally more love, to the cats that come into our care.

Goals include:
Rescue stray, feral, and roaming cats
Find adoptive homes for the friendly cats
Humanely trap feral cats and help to rehabilitate them – if they do not turn out to be adoptable, we would do a Trap, Neuter, Release program.
To educate the public about proper animal care
To promote spaying and neutering pets to prevent further overpopulation

History
Healing Animal SCARS – Sonya’s Cat & Animal Rescue Society is a rescue organization that helps abandoned, stray and feral cats and kittens. In the 5 years before I officially started this rescue, I have rescued about 80 cats, usually paying out of my own wallet to provide veterinary care, food and shelter to these poor creatures, before finding them loving adoptive homes. I have been a volunteer for other animal rescue organizations, such as the SPCA, Bide-Awhile and Raven’s Haven, and I have decided to form a volunteer Board of Directors to start a non-profit organization. We are in the process of applying for non-profit status and are trying to fundraise to cover costs of the cats currently in our care.

Prayer for the Animals

Hear our humble prayer for our friends the animals, especially for animals who are suffering, for any that are hunted or lost or deserted or frightened or hungry; for all that must be put to death. We entreat for them all Thy mercy and pity, and for those who deal with them, we ask a heart of compassion and gentle hands and kindly words. Make us, ourselves, to be true friends to animals and so to share the blessings of the merciful. .... Albert Schweitzer
