Dear PIN Friends and Supporters,
During this uncertain and isolating time, the love and support of a pet is
especially comforting
. And, after having to close the clinic for more than a month,
it's never been more clear how crucial our services are for low-income pet families.
Although our operation is going to be different for the foreseeable future, we were relieved to be able to reopen on May 4th. Not only are we following all Ohio Department of Health workplace safety recommendations, we're also not allowing pet owners to be in the clinic with their animals. This has drastically changed the daily routine—but our staff is rolling with it.
On a positive note, within the COVID cloud, we found a silver lining. The clinic addition and remodeling we've been planning for close to 3 years was jumpstarted in early April instead of beginning in late May as scheduled. An empty building with no clinic operations to work around was an attractive incentive
for our contractors to begin sooner.
Sometimes crises can bring out the best. We're thankful for the unparalleled dedication of our staff and
for
your
continued support. PIN is surviving under these unprecedented circumstances.
We hope you and your family are staying safe and healthy.
Ann
Ann Ramsey Hill
Executive Director
