CHARITY STORY
Sarsaparilla's Happy Tail

Sarsaparilla had a near-tragic beginning.

A neighbor witnessed Sarsaparilla being thrown out of a car window on a highway in front of their home. They immediately came to her rescue and cared for her for the night until they could bring her to HSPPR.

Our veterinary team did a full exam of Sassy when she arrived. They found she had an open mouth wound and dried blood on her lip and around her eye. Remarkably, these minor injuries were the extent of her physical trauma.

Sassy was lucky to be found when she was because she walked away from a scary situation with only minor injuries.

The photo here shows Sarsaparilla's transformation while in our care. She healed right before our eyes, and we love looking back at her resilient journey. After about a month in our care, Sassy was fully healed and officially adopted into a new home!

Sarsaparilla's story is not one of sadness or defeat but one of triumphant perseverance, and we are honored to be a part of it. Will you join us in being a part of more happy tail stories like Sassy's?

Transcript

I love this organization and I think all animals deserve a second, third or even a fourth chance at life and it just gives me such joy and peace to know that my support is helping them with that.

Anyone who walks through these doors will be welcomed and you will see animals that are happy, that are cared for, that are just waiting to come into someone’s home and make that home complete.

Animals are never unavailable. They’re never off duty. They give love unconditionally. They provide companionship. They relieve stress and I just can’t imagine my household without my cats.
