September 7, 2015 Great adoption news! Spay/neuter grants! Fifi fund!

This Labor Day weekend was an exciting weekend for the sanctuary.  Not only did we manage two adoptions (newly named Simon moved in with Sue Lewis and Honey the Cat found a great home with Emily the Math Teacher), but we received several vouchers for spaying/neutering Owen County animals.  The vouchers were given to the sanctuary by Spay-Neuter Services of Indiana (SNSI).  We really appreciate the assistance and are getting busy organizing our second feral cat spay-neuter marathon!

On that note, The Sanctuary at Browning Farms is setting up a special account to pay for spay-neuters.  It is called the Fifi account and has been created to honor the late Fifi Hawkins, Pam's beloved dog and traveling companion.  Please make a note when donating to the Fifi fund so that your donation can be earmarked for spaying or neutering dogs and cats in Owen County.

The Sanctuary at Browning Farms has been receiving items for another fundraising garage sale.  The sale will be held at Ed's Body Shop located at 1956 State Road 46, just past the Spencer Walmart, on Saturday, September 12.  We wish to thank everyone for their wonderful donations!  Please come out and support the animals!

Another fundraiser that is coming up will benefit the Monroe County Animal Shelter and the Sanctuary at Browning Farms.  It will be held at Bryant Park on Saturday, September 26. Edward Jones is sponsoring this fundraiser and will be serving sandwiches.

Because of all of you, we are able to improve the lives of animals in Owen County!
