Blood Bank at Angell

Dogs and cats, just like people, may require a blood transfusion to treat a variety of injuries and illnesses, such as severe trauma, autoimmune diseases, rodenticide poisoning, and more.

Your pet could help save lives by donating blood to help these animals recover and be reunited with their family.
