RIP The Unknown Soul

The Unknown Soul

On Wednesday 24 August we had reports of a dog injured in a hit-and-run.  With the Sanctuary at capacity, no spare funds, and a reliance on external vet services, we appealed for urgent funds to assist.  Donors did not disappoint, with many small donations arriving, amounting to over 11,000php.

Despite this, we were just too late, and the dog passed away minutes before we arrived.  We brought the dog back to at least give it a proper burial.
These cases are truly heart-breaking but it helps to know that so many people care and are willing to help.  The funds we collected will be able to help a poor cat we called Tom, who has a severe skin disease of some kind and can't open its eyes.  In some small way, we hope that Tom will be the beneficiary of the poor Unknown Soul we were unable to help this time.
