The Furry Godmother Fund
The Furry Godmother Fund enables HSHV to go the extra mile for animals that have suffered abuse or neglect and require medical treatment that is beyond the scope of regular adoption center procedures. HSHV budgets for these special cases that come into its clinic and shelter. Each year HSHV needs approximately $20,000 in order to provide life-saving medical care. Please contact our Development Director if you need additional information by e-mail development@hshv.org or call 734-661-3525.

Sponsor a Homeless Pet
We know it's not always possible to adopt but you can still make a difference in the lives of homeless companion animals. Sponsor an animal in honor of a friend and family member. Your sponsorship gift will appear on our newsletter, Shelter Life and you can send an eCard to the special animal lover in your life letting them know of your donation in their honor.
