Some animals need special medical tests or care that goes above and beyond our normal resources. Project S.A.V.E. ~ Saving Animals with Veterinary Emergencies ~ is a special fund that enables us to do more in unique situations where more veterinary care might make a second chance possible.

Griffin is a young, black and brown, male Tiger cat. He lost his happy home, where cats were not allowed. Our veterinarian noticed that Griffin’s eyes appeared to be painful and discovered the little guy had “entropia.” Griffin’s eyelids had grown inward, not out as they should. The eyelids rubbed against his eyes and really hurt. Griffin had surgery and is pain free, at last. This lovely cat enjoys being with other cats and is used to being an indoor/outdoor kitty.

Valerie was one of over 200 (!!) animals rescued from cruelty by the Animal Rescue League of Trumbull County. Malnourished and filthy, Valerie was also heartworm positive. Rescue Village was among many wonderful agencies to lend a hand and, because we have the resources to treat heartworm, Valerie came to our shelter. Treatment takes months and requires a quiet
place to rest and get well. Valerie also needed time to heal from the emotional trauma of long-term cruelty. Today, Valerie is available for adoption and needs someone who understands the hardship she has endured. Donate to Project S.A.V.E. today. 

Weaver was left alone, abandoned at our doorstep one evening when no one was at the shelter. He arrived needing a lot of special care. He required surgery, because his lashes were growing into his eyes. His ears needed a thorough cleaning because of mites. Years without treatment caused his ears to look unique. Today, Weaver is feeling so much better. He is a happy and sweet boy, who just wants to tell the world he is ready for a loving home. Weaver is very affectionate and is always willing to share his special purr. Donate to Project S.A.V.E. today.

Phil the cat was rescued by RV's humane agent last month.  Phil's owner recently experienced some life difficulties and agreed to surrender him to Rescue Village. As soon as Dr. Volpe saw both of his eyelinds folded inward, she knew surgery was necessary to relieve the pain.  Phil has gone through two surgeries at Sarah's Place Clinic at Rescue Village to correct the uncommon problem for cats - entropion.  Phil is now with his forever home!   Donate to Project S.A.V.E. today.
