Penelope is a one of WCHS's longest residents and she needs a place to call home!  Penelope is an 8 year old spayed female that is good with dogs, all dogs!  She isn't the best with other cats but has learned to be a little more tolerant.  She enjoys relaxing, taking sun baths, watching the birds outside and she needs a home where she can explore and do as she pleases.  She is a spayed female who enjoys being pet and once she bonds with you and learns to trust, she is a wonderful companion that isn't needy!  Come by to meet this staff and volunteer favorite! 

What's Happening at WCHS

 PEPPER NEEDS YOUR HELP!

Pepper is a 2-3 year old female chocolate lab mix facing a serious and potentially fatal disease.  Although it is costly to treat, it IS curable.

Pepper has Cryptococcus...a yeast-like fungus growing in her lungs causing her difficulty in breathing and capable of spreading to her brain.  She picked this fungus up in soil but it's imperative that her treatment begin immediately.  The drug (fluconazole) to treat her usually runs about $800 per month but we are possibly going to be able to get it for her for around $275 per month.  She will probably need to be on the medication for 3-5 months with ongoing vet visits and x-rays to determine whether the treatment is working.

Pepper is a loving, sweet girl who came to us as a stray.  She is very well-behaved and knows several commands.  None of us are willing to give up on her but the treatment is beyond what the shelter can afford.  Please help us help her...Pepper deserves this chance! 

Donations can be sent to WCHS Attn: Pepper, 3650 State Road 60, Slinger, WI 53086.  Or you can call us at 262-677-4388 and charge your donation over the phone.  Thank you, in advance, for any help you can provide!
