Friends for Life Animal Shelter, a Houston no-kill rescue, was burglarized, and the suspect was caught on surveillance footage. As police search for the thief, the shelter is asking for community support through donations, volunteering, and fostering to recover from the crime.
A no-kill animal shelter in Houston, which is already well-known for saving thousands of dogs and cats over the course of the past 23 years, has been the victim of a theft, which has left the staff and volunteers at the shelter emotional and devastated.
An unidentified suspect was seen on security cameras breaking into an external office of the Friends for Life Animal Shelter and stealing materials with the intention of committing a crime against the organization.
According to Fiona Layfield, the Managing Director of the shelter, "He kind of destroyed our trust in people, which is really a sad thing."
Police in Houston are conducting a thorough search for the culprit and are requesting that members of the public come forward with any information they may have.
Additionally, the shelter, which is dependent on the assistance of the community, is currently soliciting contributions, volunteers, and foster families in order to assist them in recovering from the catastrophe.
The organization Friends for Life continues to be dedicated to its purpose of rescuing and rehoming animals, despite the setback that has occurred.
In order to make a difference, anyone who is interested in supporting the shelter can either donate money, volunteer their time, or foster a pet.
