Dear Friends,
I’d like to introduce you to Cosby. Cosby is a resilient cat who recently recovered from severe facial fractures after a vehicle accident. He represents the many special needs pets who depend on specialized care and who are at risk of economic euthanasia even when their prognosis is good. Together, we’re changing this narrative case by case and you continue to make this possible. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
By supporting these pets, you’re helping us create lasting change:
- Advancing Veterinary Care: Treatments for special needs pets push veterinary care forward, benefiting countless animals.
- Boosting Adoption Rates: As more people understand the unique joy of caring for special needs pets, adoption rates for all animals improve.
- Promoting Awareness and Empathy: Special needs pets raise awareness about responsible pet ownership and the value of every life, especially those that look different.
Cosby embodies the work we do at the BUB Fund and if you’d like to support him, and pets just like him, you can donate via PayPal HERE or donate via Every.org by clicking the button below (top or bottom of page).
Please know that no donation is too small. We also know that not everyone is in a position to donate, so please know that it is never expected. Simply by being a part of our community and reading this email, you’re helping further what BUB truly stood for – championing those who need our support and normalizing their stories.
We’re also raising funds for pets impacted by Hurricane Helene in Western North Carolina.
As I’m sure you’ve heard, severe weather has left many pets and families in urgent need of food, shelter, and medical care. We’re stepping in to help, and you can help make a real difference.
How You Can Help:
- Donate: All funds raised at the links above will be split between helping Cosby and helping special needs pets affected by the hurricane.
- Drop Off Donations In Person: Local Indiana supporters can bring pet supplies to our recording studio at 1021 S Walnut Street in Bloomington Indiana today and tomorrow to directly aid our hurricane relief efforts. If you have any questions, please reach out to me, at stacy@lilbub.com
- Spread the Word: Sharing this message with friends and family truly helps so much!
- Volunteer or Foster: If you have the time and energy, consider helping your local shelter or rescue by volunteering.
We are constantly reminded that it’s the small actions—made together—that create a real, lasting impact on the lives of pets and their families.
Every donation, every shared message, and every hour volunteered adds up to something much larger.
Thanks to your dedication and compassion, we’re able to extend a helping hand to those in need, whether it’s a special needs pet like Cosby or a family displaced by a storm. We couldn’t do this without you, and we are so grateful for the love and support that continues to flow through our community.
In endless gratitude always,
Stacy and the Lil BUB Family
