Inspired by the individual stories of so many shelter animals in need of help, Princess became one of the first felines successfully pulled from a high-kill city shelter by Advocates 4 Animals, Inc. Princess weighed just 4 lbs, had little hair and was very ill. She was labeled a “Senior Cat”. In addition, before Princess had been picked up as a stray by the shelter, her left eye had been gouged, leaving a severe wound and blindness, which had been left untreated by the shelter staff. In addition, Princess had tooth decay (which prevented her from eating, causing malnourishment) and she had a severe internal infection that required life-saving surgery. When rescued by A4A, shelter staff didn’t expect Princess to survive the week. Against all odds, Princess proved everyone wrong as she lived ten wonderful, healthy, happy years following her rescue by A4A in 2002.
Our Advocates 4 Animals, Inc. logo is inspired by Princess for her strong will and her undeniable trust in the human race. Our logo is taken from a photo of Princess, as she represents the animals Advocates 4 Animals, Inc. strives to protect. Princess will forever be remembered by A4A, as she showed us all what is possible when you give a pet in need an opportunity for hope, for love and for a lifetime of health and happiness.
