HSLWR needs supplies for new surgical suite

Please read the release below and help if you can.
Thanks,

The Humane Society at Lakewood Ranch is establishing itself as a major source of animal rescue and shelter in the eastern areas of Sarasota and Manatee counties. With a veterinarian, Dr. Walker, who provides free care for our animals, we are in a unique position to operate at greatly reduced expenses which in turn, allow us to bring in more animals and save them. Every animal, dog, cat, puppy and kitten must be spayed/neutered and vaccinated (plus microchipped) before it is adopted to its new family. We have been given a great Adoption Facility in LWR Corporate Park and are working on our Grand Opening.
This space allows us to develop a single surgical / medical room that will provide spaying and neutering of our animals on a regular basis in addition to any medical care the animals might need. Animals will not be held until they can be transported to another location for altering. This provides a faster turnaround on the animals which in turn, allows for more adoptions. More saving of lives. We need your help.
We are working to set up our Surgical Suite for spaying/neutering our animals at our new Adoption / Administration Center in LWR Corporate Park, 7334 Trade Court. If we purchase used or new equipment, the cost can be from $7500 to $15K. Donations of the items below and money donations will help us set up this room.
Everything is operated under the highest medical protocols and procedures established by our Veterinarian. We welcome you to come and see our progress.
We are in need of a surgical table, lights, autoclave, surgical gowns, masks and gloves and a host of instruments, etc. - please see below.
If you could help us with getting any of the items, we would be so grateful. It would allow us to get more dogs and cats through our shelter and into new adoptive homes. It would save more lives....

Items in RED are one time purchases, can you help? If so, please advise. These RED items are MUST HAVES so if you can help, let me know. Item in GREEN, we already have.Items in BLACK, on going need - please donate now and keep on our Wish List. Hospitals and Medical Practices may donate the ongoing items. ??? Who do you know?

Expired 'human' items will be well used on some very needy dogs and cats. All care is under the highest levels of procedures, protocols and standards for HSLWR animals.
