The Shelter 88 Fundraiser Was a Huge Success!

The Shelter 88 Happy Hour Mixer at Traveller Rest Hua Hin exceeded all expectations. Thanks to the incredible support of attendees, sponsors, donors, and a very generous contribution from Mukti Restaurant's Curry Week, we surpassed our fundraising target.

The funds raised will allow the shelter to:

  • Cover flea and tick treatment for all 60+ dogs

  • Fully fund the next treatment in 3–4 months

  • Support medical bills for dogs currently receiving care

  • Provide food and daily essentials for the animals

 

Bravecto Day Was a Success

Shortly after the fundraiser, the shelter was able to help every one of the 60+ dogs receive flea and tick prevention treatment thanks to the support received from the fundraiser and community donations. The best part? Thanks to Mukti’s donation, the shelter is already prepared for the next treatment cycle in 3-4 months. Seeing the dogs protected and healthy is exactly what this fundraiser was all about.

 

Sticky's Incredible Story

One of the fastest rescue-to-adoption stories we've ever seen belongs to Sticky. This tiny kitten was found stuck to a glue trap. Thanks to quick action from a rescuer and a local vet, she was safely removed using oil. The best news? Sticky has already been adopted. Kim from Moto Moto Restaurant opened her heart and home to this little survivor, and Sticky is now living the good life while continuing to recover.

 

Tallulah's Surprise Identity

Remember little Tallulah? During a recent check-up, it turns out Tallulah is actually Lou. Apparently this happens more often than people think when trying to determine the sex of very young kittens. Lou is currently enjoying foster life while waiting for a permanent home.


Another Adoption Success

Jack the cat, now called Leo, has officially been adopted! Wishing Leo a lifetime of naps, treats, and love.


Heidi Gets the Penthouse Suite

Heidi has been showing signs of kidney issues and some of the other cats appear to be bullying her, so she has been upgraded to a "penthouse suite" in the downstairs catio. She now enjoys room service with food delivered daily and her pee pads changed regularly. Not every shelter cat gets private accommodations, but Heidi has certainly earned her VIP status.


Community Support Continues

The shelter participated in a local flea market this month along with food and monetary donations were collected. Every bit helps, and we're grateful for every person who contributes to helping the animals.


As always, thank you for supporting Shelter 88 and the dogs and cats who call it home.
