Look At These Faces

Our summer 2021 fundraising is underway and our letter will be arriving in mailboxes very soon.

No matter the circumstance – abandonment, neglect, abuse, critical illness, or injury – every animal who arrives at Animals Benefit Club is provided with a safe and loving environment to help them heal. ABC rescues all breeds of cats and dogs without discrimination and will provide them with medical care, food, and shelter until they are placed in a forever home. As a true no-kill shelter, these animals will call ABC “home” for as long as needed.

Look at these faces, and read their stories. We know there’s a perfect home for each of them.

Domino, a Black & White Tuxedo, was found locked in a plastic carrier in the hot sun. He now resides in our large community of kitties and has made great progress but still tends to be on the aloof side. He will accept some petting but prefers to follow the Staff around and hang out nearby. In a quiet home he would absolutely flourish, especially if he gets to play with a wand toy.

Beau, a Chihuahua, was rescued from the streets of Phoenix. This senior fellow likes meeting new people, does well with cats, and doesn’t even mind being dressed in some stylish clothes. He enjoys playing ball and snuggling in laps. He has also learned how to cover himself with a blankie, but he sure would love it if you did it for him!

Lacy, an Australian Cattle Dog mix, is still quite young herself, despite having already raised a rambunctious litter of six named after the lovable Peanuts characters. She is a high-energy girl with the sweetest personality and loves to play with dogs and toys. We think she would make a wonderful running companion and would no doubt excel in agility!

Nugget, a White & Orange Tabby, really is the most extraordinary cat. He was found waiting for food in a feral cat community. He was so friendly and outgoing, he walked right up to the caretaker, who then rescued him. Despite the severe, painful inflammation of his mouth and gums, which resulted in the removal of all of his teeth, his sweet personality never wavered, not even while being given pain meds! This calm purring machine has a heart of gold and is instantly everyone’s best friend.

Nala, a German Shepherd mix, arrived in late 2017 after her owner passed away. She was extremely obese and was at high risk for weight-related issues. She made wonderful progress on a special reduced-calorie diet and frequent walks, see before photos on our website. Having lived in a home previously, she is very well-mannered and at-ease in a home. She loves walks, fetch, tug-of-war, and CAR RIDES! Any other time, she’s perfectly happy to hang out and nap. Nala is very intelligent and curious but is terrified of fireworks. She would make a great companion for humans, but is not a fan of other animals.

These are just some of the rescued animals you would be helping to support while they wait for their forever homes.

Please help with a gift of $25, $50, $75 or whatever amount you are able to give. Any size gift helps. As always, 100% of all donations goes directly to animal care and support – ABC has no paid administration.

Make your donation today or mail a check a check to Animals Benefit Club, 3111 E St John Road, Phoenix, AZ 85032. Thank you for your continued support.

Sincerely,

Andra Jeffress
Board Chair
