UPDATE: From the bottom of our hearts we’d like to thank One by One Animal Advocates thanks to a grant from the Pallottine Foundation for helping our client and getting his very loved cat to a safe place.

Animal owners face a huge barrier when going into treatment….who will care for their beloved animal? We have a client needing treatment who has an adult cat that needs a foster home for 1 week.
