Dear John,

It's devastating just to imagine it: a one-year-old ragdoll cat, on the street and in pain...

But that was the reality for Avatar, who was lost and suffering from an agonizing leg injury when a Good Samaritan found him. His owners weren't in a position to give him the kind of extensive care he needed, and made the heartbreaking decision to surrender him. It seemed like an impossible situation. How could this cat ever recover?

Thanks to generous supporters like you, he could. The help you provided us allowed us to bring him to our Boston Adoption Center and get him into surgery immediately.

On behalf of Avatar, thank you... and I invite you to show your own support for animals like him with a generous tax-deductible contribution to the Carter Luke Pet Care Assistance Fund today.

This unique fund directly impacts animals who need life saving surgery. With your help, no animal will go without the urgent surgical care they require.

Recently, Northeast Animal Shelter joined forces with the MSPCA-Angell, giving us a better opportunity to serve our community. Together, we have the extra tools, manpower, and combined knowledge to help all our animals find their own loving families.

We were able to do just that for Avatar, and now, in his new adopted home, he's a star. While on the mend, he's been a ball of fun, curiosity, and cuddles, following his new mom and dad all around the house. His limp has even begun to improve!

At any given moment, all around our state, a precious animal is in need of lifesaving medical intervention. Your gift guarantees that we'll be ready when an animal faces such an emergency. Will you please give today?

Thank you so very much for your support.

P.S. Now that Northeast Animal Shelter has joined forces with the MSPCA-Angell, we can serve our community and animals even better. Your gift today will go into our Carter Luke Pet Care Assistance Fund, a unique program that directly and exclusively provides medical care for animals. Don't delay!
