My birthday is today, but I’m depressed since nobody sad has remembered to wish me a happy birthday.

My birthday is today, but I’m depressed since nobody sad has remembered to wish me a happy birthday.

Basil’s story could have ended in tragedy, but thanks to the swift action of Animal Aid of Tulsa and the support of The Waggle Foundation, she’s been given a second chance at life. When Basil was first discovered, she was in a shelter with a broken jaw and only days away from being euthanized. Her situation was dire, and the clock was ticking.

Yvonne H., a dedicated member of the rescue team, knew they couldn’t let that happen. “We agreed to pull her and get her to one of our vets,” she recalls. Despite her severe injury, Basil’s spirit remained unbroken. She greeted the rescue staff with wagging tail and an eagerness to connect, as if she knew help had finally arrived.

“Even with her mangled jaw, she came right up to employees as if to ask for help with her injuries,” says Lisa, another team member. Basil’s friendliness and resilience have made her a favorite among everyone she meets. She’s a model patient, unafraid of strangers and eager to make new friends.

Now, as Basil’s birthday approaches, it’s more than just another day—it’s a celebration of her courage, her will to survive, and the love and care that saved her life. This year, her birthday is also a chance for others to join the effort to give her the life she deserves. By contributing to The Waggle Foundation’s FurEver Fund, supporters can ensure that Basil, and other pets like her, receive the medical care they need to live happy, healthy lives.

Happy Birthday, Basil! Your journey has touched the hearts of many, and your future is bright thanks to the kindness of those who refused to give up on you. Here’s to a life filled with love, joy, and endless belly rubs!
