Shelter needs X-ray funds
Bainbridge’s West Sound Wildlife Shelter is raising funds for an X-ray machine, with the help of The Wild Bird store in Poulsbo. For the month of December, The Wild Bird will be donating 10 percent of its sales to the shelter, to help raise money for the X-ray equipment.
Wildlife shelter Executive Director Kol Medina said the machine will cost nearly $20,000 but will allow the shelter to greatly expand its urgent care capabilities.
“We desperately need an X-ray machine,” Medina said. “Currently, we have to take our patients that need X-rays to local veterinarian offices who donate their services.”
The Wild Bird is located at 19740 7th Ave. in the Poulsbo Village shopping center. The shelter is online at www.westsoundwildlife.org.
