Basil’s story was close to ending in tragedy, but with the quick actions of Animal Aid of Tulsa and support from The Waggle Foundation, she’s been granted a second chance. When first found, Basil was in a shelter with a broken jaw, only days from euthanasia. Her situation was critical, and the clock was ticking.
Yvonne H., a devoted rescue team member, couldn’t let her fate end there. “We agreed to pull her and get her to one of our vets,” she recalls. Despite her severe injury, Basil’s spirit stayed strong. She greeted staff with a wagging tail and eagerness, as if she knew help was finally here.
“Even with her damaged jaw, she came right up to employees as if asking for help,” shares Lisa, another team member. Basil’s friendly nature and resilience have won her many admirers. She’s a model patient, unafraid of strangers and eager to meet new friends.
Now, with Basil’s birthday approaching, it’s more than just a day—it’s a celebration of her bravery, her survival, and the love that saved her. This year, her birthday is also a chance for others to join the effort to provide her with a bright future. By donating to The Waggle Foundation’s FurEver Fund, supporters can help Basil and other pets get the medical care they need for happy lives.
Happy Birthday, Basil! Your story has touched many, and your future shines bright, thanks to those who never gave up on you. Here’s to a life filled with love, joy, and endless belly rubs!
