The Brodie Fund Helping Pets Fight Cancer

Get Social

Thank you to @paws4potter for sharing my Marlin’

Thank you to @paws4potter for sharing my Marlin’s story of his journey with Mast Cell cancer.
We were given 22 months with treatment and incredibly grateful for every day.
I hope anyone faced with the same diagnosis reads this and finds some hope.
Sally Williams
Founder & Executive Director
The Brodie Fund Posted @withregram • @paws4potter Have you ever heard the phrase, March comes "in like a lion?"

Well, this amazing kitty may not have been an ACTUAL lion, but he certainly had the heart and soul of one!

Marlin, also fondly named "The Buddha Cat," has been featured here on the Paws4Potter social media channels before. He was a spokeskitty for pet cancer and had his very own FB and IG pages, which are still followed even after his passing this last year.

I sat down and chatted with Marlin's mom, Sally, over Zoom in February and learned more about his story. This month, we are featuring Marlin's story and an article about feline mast cell cancer on our website, which you can find at the link below:

Thank you to everyone who braved the snowstorm today and joined us for the Kitty & Canine Kissing Booth. Thank you to our awesome board members and volunteer coordinator for all their hard work. It was cold and all of our fingers and toes were frozen, but the snow was beautiful.

Denisse we can’t thank you enough for not only being an amazing photographer, but for braving the snow! And thank you to Pam and Bill from Boxwood Gardens for their generosity and support.

Because we couldn’t say it any better, here is the message from Angel’s mom Amy:

Dear Sally & the Brodie Fund,

Angel went to see Dr. Budreckis at AVS today to get the wonderful news that she is still in remission!

Angel is doing really well and so happy. She announced her arrival and loves everyone at AVS.

Please know how much this means to me. If you hadn't covered the last doses of Tavonea Angel might not be here.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Amy & Angel
