LETHBRIDGE:  The Family Pet Hospital issued a media release Thursday with follow-up information on the aftermath of the Last Chance Cat Ranch Fire, which happened on March 5th.

The pet hospital confirmed that all the burned cats brought to the hospital for care and treatment after the fire have survived. Most have gone to foster families already and the last 10 cats are now ready to be fostered.

In a direct quote from the news released, "Family Pet Hospital would like to take this opportunity to thank all the donators of funds and products for the care and treatment of the cats. A lot of help came from the local community, other Southern Alberta communities, and also from far away including cat lovers in Saskatchewan, Manitoba, British Colombia and even Ontario. The donations are greatly appreciated. Thank you!"

The Family Pet Hospital will be handing over the balance of donations received, plus a donation from the Family Pet Hospital, to the Last Chance Cat Ranch for the ongoing care and treatment of the fire-burnt victim cats.

Good quality foster homes are needed that can care for the last 10 cats for the next six months or more.

Please contact the Family Pet Hospital Centre at 403-320-5200 and/or the Last Chance Cat Ranch at 403-715-2287.

"Thank you all for your spirit of helping".
