Meet Fita.
Life on the streets of Romania is tough for homeless pets. They are in constant search of food and shelter. They encounter many dangerous things and have no one to care for them if they are injured.
Fita was found in a woman's front yard with a gaping wound on her stomach and Sava's Safe Haven received a call for help. Rescuers came and rushed the poor dog to a local animal hospital.
Her underbelly was cut open by a wire and she needs emergency surgery to suture her wound.
She was in agony and immediately started on pain medication. After surgery, she will be kept at the hospital for observation to make sure she doesn't get an infection.
The rescue reached out to Greater Good Charities' Emergency Animal Medical fund to help cover her surgery and ongoing care. The fund was started to help save the lives of injured and sick shelter pets and give them the second chance they deserve.
Will you help Fita get the medical care she needs?
Pets receiving critical care facilitated by an Emergency Animal Medical grant may not be eligible for adoption until they have completed their course of treatment. If you would like to inquire about adoption of a specific animal, we strongly encourage you to visit the shelter’s specific website first as that is often the most up to date place to learn about available pets and review the adoption policies and process.
Help us meet our goal of $6,000 for Fita and pets like her. Your gift will not only give her the hope to keep fighting, but your donations will help cover her ongoing care.
