Friends of Wharton,Tx Animal Control

Friends of Wharton,Tx Animal Control FOW IS NOT A PART OF THE CITY OF WHARTON ANIMAL CONTROL AND ACTS INDEPENDENTLY FROM THE CITY. FOW is not a rescue or a shelter, and does not take in animals.

Friends of Wharton Animal Control (FOW) is a nonprofit group of volunteers working toward a no-kill Wharton, TX community through POSITIVE actions supporting Wharton Animal Control and rescues that save animals from Wharton Animal Control. FOW strives to:

• Increase the number of rescued animals and decrease the euthanasia rates through advertising, promotions, and networking of the animals to re

scues and the public.
• Educate the public and make them aware of the needs of the shelter.
• Fundraise for the rescues that save animals to help defray costs of boarding, vetting and transporting animals.
• Create a pre-approved foster network for the rescues so they can save more animals.
• Educate, and work with, city officials on programs such affordable spay/neuter and community wide TNR for feral cats.
• Conduct donation drives for beds, food, blankets, and other supplies for the Shelter.
• Create a volunteer base for needs such as: taking animal photos, assisting with page postings, coordinating transport, helping transport to rescues, and assisting with donation drives. In addition to alerting the public to animals needing rescue from the shelter, we believe volunteers can create efficiencies and lessen burden on rescues through fundraising, transporting, coordinating transport, and networking animals for adoption once with a rescue.

Tate and Semi have been adopted and are ready for transport Thursday 6/18. They need $410.00 for transport. Tate, the boy puppy was the runt of a litter of 11 puppies, (mom Tori delivered at the pound), he almost died. He only weighed 1.2 lbs. because his mom had too many pups to feed. Barry syringe fed Tate milk and mush. Now he’s a healthy boy ready to be loved by his new family. PayPal.me/FOWAC
