ALLEY CAT ACTION, SUMMER 2025 | 3 www.alleycat.org GEORGE Then GEORGE Now Because around this time last year, George was the victim of a heinous act of cruelty. He was shot in the leg and left to carry the weight of his wounds. His caregiver had to rush him to the veterinarian after she discovered him limping. Alley Cat Allies immediately jumped in to cover the cost of surgery to remove George’s injured leg, which could not be saved. And so began his long road to recovery.

Since he was brought home, our team has had the pleasure of visiting him several times. We’ve seen firsthand his transformation, and how he hasn’t let his harrowing ordeal stop him from living his life to the fullest. Recently, George celebrated the one-year anniversary of his adoption! We’re so happy to celebrate this milestone with you, our supporters, who helped save his life. Here’s to many happy years ahead for George! Saving Kittens’ Lives: From Day One to the Home Stretch Last issue, we told you the story of Bud, Buttercup, Blossom, Bee, and Bloom—kittens who faced nearcertain death in an animal shelter before they were even a week old. Alley Cat Allies acted swiftly to rescue them, and their mother, just in time. We couldn’t turn back the clock and advise whoever first found them to Leave Them BeTM rather than bring the whole family to a shelter. But we could provide the expert, loving care they needed to grow up strong and healthy. And that’s exactly what we did, with your support every step of the way!
