Animal Safe Haven And Adoptions Inc

All necessary supplies for general care and well-being of the animals are purchased by the rescue. This includes the following: food that is not only age appropriate, but also takes into consideration any specific health needs of the animal(s), litter and litter boxes for cats when donations of goods are unavailable, medical supplies purchased outside of veterinary offices such as gauze, handfeeding syringes for kittens or cats with appropriate dietary needs, and cleaning supplies for carrying crates, cages, and upkeep of the animal's environment. The cost of all supplies has increased significantly this year, as has the request for aid.

Separate from veterinary expenses are medical supply expenses that have been incurred by the rescue this year. In attempt to curb excessive and expensive trips to the Vet, we were able to procure supplies of our own such as, but not limited to, gauze for wound care, handfeeding syringes for kittens or cats with fluid-based dietary needs, deworming medicines, flea and tick prevention and treatments, IV fluid bags, medication and needles, topical ointments for skin maladies, heart-worm prevention medications, and remedies for digestive issues. The rescue attempts to treat the animals with these measures before taking the animal to the vet so as to keep veterinary costs down as much as possible.

We incur a number of other expenses relating to travel, promotion, and purchasing office supplies to support our general mission and the accomplishments listed above.
