Both my Grandfather and Mother had cancer as well as both of my pets. Roma was a 16 year old spaniel mix and Pisa was an 11 year old Calico. My Mother and Mary Katherine’s aunt, Joyce Moore, dearly loved children, all of her students, and her dogs. During her last 2 years of battling this disease a pregnant dog adopted my parents and presented them with 9 puppies. At first she was not happy about
this added responsibility but grew to love and pamper them. We are convinced that those puppies helped extend her life. In all four of those cases we were able to provide excellent care to help them be comfortable. We hope to provide others that can’t necessarily afford adequate treatment or care. This can mean helping with veterinarian costs for treatment, medication, or research or helping a child be more comfortable while they battle a terrible disease. All of the donations stay local in Cabarrus and Rowan Counties. Mary Katherine and I are dedicating The Splashpaw Foundation, Inc. in memory of the lost lives of all of our family members which includes our pets!
