Providing Emergency Care<br />
In loving memory…<br />
On September 30 th , Olivia passed away<br />
and crossed the Rainbow Bridge.<br />
She will be incredibly missed,<br />
but her legacy will continue<br />
to help other animals in need of care.<br />
Wilder is a 1.5-year-old cat that was transferred<br />
to Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League by a local<br />
veterinary clinic. Wilder’s owner surrendered him<br />
to the veterinary clinic when he was unable to<br />
urinate due to a blocked urinary tract. The veterinary<br />
clinic realized what a sweet boy he was and fought to<br />
save him. After the clinic removed the blockage and<br />
he was stable, they brought him to Peggy Adams so<br />
he could find a loving home.<br />
Unfortunately, Wilder blocked again within a few<br />
days at Peggy Adams. He required a specialty surgery<br />
– called a PU (perineal urethrostomy) surgery – that<br />
would allow him to urinate and not block up again.<br />
This is not a surgery that our veterinarians do, but we<br />
were able to call a veterinary surgeon to take care of<br />
him. The surgeon was able to come to Peggy Adams to<br />
perform this specialized surgery.<br />
Thanks to those who support Peggy Adams’ Olivia’s<br />
Fund, we were able to provide Wilder the care that he<br />
desperately needed and will continue to help other<br />
animals like Wilder.<br />

About Olivia’s Fund: Olivia came to Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League after being rescued from an animal hoarder. She had<br />
significant hip dysplasia and muscle atrophy from abuse and neglect. Olivia had also been shot with a BB gun and needed surgery<br />
to help repair her legs. In honor of Olivia, we set up a special fund to help give a second chance to dogs and cats with medical and<br />
behavioral issues that can be fixed with surgery, special medical treatment, or training. We decided to call it “Olivia’s Fund.”<br />
