Thanks to the Lauren Elizabeth Foundation (LEF), White Pine Critter Fix (WPCF) has another success story.
Recently, a family in Lund got in touch to see what they could do about a stray cat with four kittens that showed up at their new home this spring. It was very cold, so the family took the kittens in and cared for them until it was time to wean them. Realizing that the community had a cat population crisis, they did not want to contribute to the issue by releasing them. The family found homes for the kittens with their family and friends in Utah and scheduled a spay appointment for the mother cat, Kitty Soft Paws.
Kitty Soft Paws
Unknowingly, Kitty Soft Paws was bred again before her spay date. She is pregnant with nine kittens. LEF covered the surgery and other veterinary expenses incurred by Dr. Fowler at Ely Veterinary Care. Cedar Grove Boarding and Grooming provided free aftercare for Kitty Soft Paws because the Lund family was expecting their own baby and was concerned about their ability to provide the care Kitty Soft Paws needed after her surgery. He made a full recovery and is now home with his Lund family.
White Pine Critter Fix thanks the Lauren Elizabeth Foundation for their continued support of its local spay and neuter program. Their mission is to protect and promote companion animals by assisting with spay, neuter, and vaccination programs, as well as rescuing and rehoming animals in rural areas of the state of Nevada.
Founder Jennifer Ashton created this non-profit organization to honor the memory of her daughter, Lauren Elizabeth, who had a passion for animals. LEF believes that companion animals create a bridge to recovery and emotional stability for people in need.
