We See the Potential in Your Orb-it
Fuzzy Towers Animal Foundation was founded to support municipal shelters and humane societies by providing a dedicated safety net for animals with complex ophthalmological needs. We know that in a high-intake environment, specialized eye surgery often isn't feasible. That’s where we step in.
Our Partnership Model: The "Rescue Pull"
We operate as a specialized pull partner. When your veterinary staff identifies a candidate who needs care beyond the scope of general shelter medicine, Fuzzy Towers provides:
Total Medical Autonomy: Once a dog or cat is pulled into our rescue, we take 100% responsibility for their surgical costs, specialist consultations, and long-term medications.
Board-Certified Care: We partner directly with New Orleans’ top specialists—Dr. da Costa (Eye Center for Animals) and Dr. Mouney (MVOS)—to ensure the highest standard of surgeries.
Foster-Based Recovery: Our "Tower Guard" fosters are trained in post-operative eye care and rigorous medication schedules, ensuring the animal is stable and healing before being placed for adoption.
The "Fuzzy Towers" Advantage for Shelters
Reduce Euthanasia/Enucleation Rates: We provide an alternative to "removal-only" protocols for treatable conditions like Cherry Eye or early-stage Glaucoma.
Budget Relief: Save your medical funds for heartworm treatments and spay/neuter—we raise the funds specifically for the "eyeball cases."
Increased Adoptability: We take the "scary looking scungy" cases and return them to the community as healthy, clear-eyed companions.
