We want to once again thank you for your brilliant response to our pleas for financial assistance. We warmly appreciate each and every contribution you’ve made.
Some of you might have gotten the impression that we are are having financial difficulties. Not at all. The Future of Lucky Lucy is secure. We are a dedicated team whose only focus is the permanent security of the Foundation at all cost. We do however from time to time have to reign in spending to ensure our financial sustainability. So don’t fret. The animals are safe, and well fed. They receive the best basic and medical care there is. In fact we can confidently say, world-class. Providing sanctuary to our furkids is our first priority and that will never change.
That said, outreach to our underprivileged and marginalised communities is extremely important, and an objective which we cannot turn our backs on. If we don’t assist these communities now with sterilisation programs, we certainly will be overwhelmed with abandoned or stray animals in the very near future. Spaying and neutering is the only sustainable way to curb the scourge of abandonment and neglect. We feel obligated to provide basic medical assistance (such as dipping / deworming) and feeding assistance to ensure their owners will be less likely to abandon and to prevent them from ending up at shelters like us. The cycle has to end, and this is the only sustainable and proven way to do it.
We would like to ask you to help us by volunteering some of your time over weekends. Our dogs and cats need human interaction. It is critical to their development and sociability and to ensure that they will adapt and thrive when adopted. We have activities for both young or old, strenuous or mild, whichever you prefer. If you feel you are emotionally not strong enough, based on your previous shelter experiences, we can assure you that you will be pleasantly surprised.
Come and visit us weekends between 9 and 2. We will change the way you feel about animal shelters furever!
Team Lucky Lucy
