Dear Friend,

Despite many challenges, PETA's fieldworkers are as busy as ever, helping as many animals as they can.

Right now, team members are delivering food to hungry dogs whose impoverished families are struggling during the economic downturn caused by the pandemic. They're shuttling cats to free spay/neuter surgeries at our clinics while the animals' concerned guardians are in lockdown, and they're working hard to ensure that every animal they meet receives the care they need in areas where veterinary clinics are limiting services.

Their vital work for animals is both emotionally and physically exhausting during normal times, and the surge in calls and e-mails asking for their help since the pandemic began is making their difficult jobs even more stressful.

 
 

The compassionate folks on PETA's field team are nothing short of miracle workers, and they deserve our deepest gratitude.

PETA's work for animals in rural regions of Virginia and North Carolina is about much more than providing life-changing sterilization surgeries or sturdy doghouses to lonely, neglected "backyard dogs." Fieldworkers often visit the animals they help for years on end, checking on their well-being and giving them much-needed affection—often, the only kindness they ever receive.

Our fieldworkers are often the only hope for a dog or cat in desperate need, and this is your opportunity to share your appreciation for all that they're doing for animals.

Thank you for everything that you do to support our team's essential work.

Kind regards,

Daphna Nachminovitch
Senior Vice President of Cruelty Investigations
