A Personal Thank You to the Oakland Veterinary Referral Services

The Michigan Animal Adoption Network would like to send its deepest gratitude to the entire team at Oakland Veterinary Referral Services (OVRS).

Without the willingness and expertise of this amazing group of individuals, our efforts in rescuing animals displaced by Hurricane Katrina would not have been possible.

OVRS is a state-of-the-art facility with an impressive group of specialist in all areas of veterinary medicine. They are also a 24-hour emergency service.

While the hospital itself is large, exceptionally clean and quite elegant, the staff is as kind, friendly and down-to-earth as they come.

Upon returning to Michigan with our four groups of hurricane animals, the hospital examined, vaccinated and blood tested each and every one. They also performed surgery and did X-rays and any other type of necessary testing.

The staff members performing these procedures did so as volunteers. They donated their time and talents to the animals, the cause and our organization. They were never anything but gentle and loving with every animal treated.

Again, there are not words adequate to describe the tremendous amount of thanks we all extend to this truly special group of individuals.

Thank you OVRS from the Michigan Animal Adoption Network and all the four-legged critters you so compassionately and generously helped.

Sincerely,


Michigan Animal Adoption Network
