Coastal Pet Rescue hopes to raise $3,000 and have 20 adoptions this December. 2009-12-03T15:49:23+00:00 http://coastalpetrescue.org/news_articles/view/fundraise-for-coastal-pet-rescue-with-traffic-invasion/ http://coastalpetrescue.org/news_articles/view/fundraise-for-coastal-pet-rescue-with-traffic-invasion/#When:15:31:25Z Traffic Invasion has created the most unique way for our members / supporters to be able to continue to support their favorite charity without having to do anything different, or spend money on things they don’t want or need. Please visit our special web link at www.traffic-invasion.com/coastalpetrescue to purchase a $20 loyalty card. Half of the initial purchase ($10 dollars) will come directly to us in the form of a donation. Additionally, anytime you make purchases of any kind from any of the current (approx. 50) participating Savannah area business partners, you receive a discount or premium offer of some kind, and, a percentage from each purchase will be rebated back to Coastal Pet Rescue. As we approach the holidays, we see this card as a major benefit. Not only will these cards make great stocking stuffers and gifts, but it will allow all of us to shop, save, and give. What a great way to get into the spirit of the holidays! 2009-12-02T15:31:25+00:00 http://coastalpetrescue.org/news_articles/view/your-donations-are-needed-now/ http://coastalpetrescue.org/news_articles/view/your-donations-are-needed-now/#When:16:05:37Z Imagine you are a dog, and your only purpose in the world is to have puppies so your owner can make a profit. But you live your life tied to a tree, with little to no attention. Until the day you are attacked by a stray dog, forcing you to lose your babies, and rendering you worthless to your owner. You have been so malnourished, you're grossly underweight, lost most of your hair, your teeth are rotted, the pads on your paws are cracked, and you have no reason to wag your tail or lift your head to look at anyone, and you are only two-years-old. To add insult to injury, your owner decides to cut her losses and just turn you loose in a neighboring trailer park, caring not if you live or die. This was Georgia's story when she arrived to Coastal Pet Rescue this past March. It took over six months to get Georgia healthy again. Her care included daily medications, sometimes five pills a day, weekly medicated baths, a blood transfusion, two heartworm treatments, teeth removal, three rounds of deworming, annual shots, and finally, her spay. Georgia's care cost over $3,000. We at Coastal Pet Rescue would like to help more pets like Georgia, but we can't do it alone. We need your help now. Please donate and give us the help we need to help others like Georgia. 2009-12-01T16:05:37+00:00 http://coastalpetrescue.org/news_articles/view/coastal-pet-rescue-adoption-day-and-blood-drive-at-tailsspin-saturday-decem/ http://coastalpetrescue.org/news_articles/view/coastal-pet-rescue-adoption-day-and-blood-drive-at-tailsspin-saturday-decem/#When:00:18:29Z On Saturday, December 5th, TailsSpin will host Coastal Pet Rescue for another adoption day from 11 am to 2 pm in Habersham Village. During the event, The Savannah Community Blood Bank will be on site for blood donations. For every blood donor, the Savannah Community Blood Bank will donate $5.00 to Coastal Pet Rescue. 2009-11-22T00:18:29+00:00
