TO HELP ANOTHER SHELTER ANIMAL IN HONOR OF THEODORE'S FIRST HEAVENLY BIRTHDAY

On March 18, 2010, my husband and I adopted Theodore from the East Bay SPCA, a no-kill shelter and rescue organization, following the loss of our beloved lab-shepherd mix, Sabrina. Theodore was 3 1/2 yrs old when they rescued him from another shelter who euthanized animals.

August 10, 2024 marks the first time we won't be celebrating Theodore's birthday with him in person. I know many of you can relate to what that feels like. 

In honor of Theodore's 1st heavenly birthday, my husband and I would greatly appreciate your support by giving back to the East Bay SPCA, however small. Our goal is to raise at least $500!

The day we adopted Theodore was the last day the East Bay SPCA ever saw him again. They never got to find out what became of him afterwards. We feel they ought to know now how wholeheartedly grateful we are to them for saving his life, and in turn enriched ours. 

Because of them, we would never have met Theodore. Because of their compassion, shelter animals would never get a second chance at life in a forever home with their forever family. 

Your generous donation will also help another shelter animal in need! It's our special way of saying... "Thank You, Theodore." And thank YOU!
