DEPAUVILLE — Jeffrey T. Garnsey stood with his ailing pig Boris, which had a life-threatening fever, at Cornell University Hospital for Animals two weeks ago when he received something that would help support his entire furry family and boost his animal sanctuary: a nonprofit designation. In the face of $6,000 in medical bills for his 250-pound, 16-month-old pig, and while preparing to sell his two snowmobiles to help pay for them, Mr. Garnsey said his wife, Julie, called him and told him they not only received the designation for their sanctuary, Garnsey’s Feral Acres, but also a $5,000 anonymous donation delivered from Northern New York Community Foundation. Boris has since been treated and sent home. |
