After a long year of fundraising, all of us at WellPetUSA are pleased to announce the opening of the application period for rescue organizations to submit for Meow Bow Wow grants.

The application period will open on April 13, 2009 at 12:01 a.m. and close on April 24, 2009 at 11:59 p.m.  Submissions will be processed on a first come, first served basis.

Due to the generous donations of many individual sponsors and organizations, WellPetUSA will be funding 6 $500 grants this year to qualifying rescue organizations that meet our funding criteria.  If you aren’t familiar with it, our Meow Bow Wow Fund reimburses small animal 501(c)3 rescue organizations for medical costs, including vaccinations, spay and neuter procedures, and anesthesia assocated with alteration procedures.

Today more than ever, small animal rescues are hurting from a lack of funding due to the suffering economy.  We thank all of our donors for their continued commitment to WellPetUSA, enabling our ability to assist rescue organizations in this time of need.

This announcement is also special for me personally …  Next month will be the one year anniversary of the passing of WellPetUSA’s founder, Amber Predraja.  Amber started WellPetUSA and the Meow Bow Wow fund with this goal in mind.  I am so thankful to have a dedicated team of Board members and Staff members that have worked diligently over the course of the last 12 months to make Amber’s vision a reality.
