Beloved Branches

Understanding What Pets Mean To People: Beloved Branches
We’ve turned the oak tree on the front lawn of our Charlotte clinic into a lovely living tribute to some of the beloved pets we’ve known and cared for.
You can help us provide free and reduced-cost spay neuter and veterinary services via our Medical Assistance Fund by purchasing a $20 glass wind chime as tribute to your (or a loved one’s) pet. Every chime sold supports a pet whose owner needs a small subsidy to provide the care their pet needs.
Each chime purchased is etched with the name of a pet and hung from a branch of the Beloved Branches tree. More than 100 chimes currently hang from that majestic tree, and they make for a beautiful sight. When the wind blows, the chimes make music – an aural reminder of all the dogs (and cats) we’ve loved.
Beloved Branches celebrates the undying bond we have with our furry family members. People purchase chimes in memory of a beloved pet that has crossed the Rainbow Bridge or in honor of their own or a friend’s pet.
