Pacesetter Supports the Wild

April 1st, 2010

Last summer Pacesetter Medical, Inc. (PMI), Twin Cities Orthopaedics (TCO), and Midwest Radiation Consultants (MRC) donated time, expertise, and an x-ray machine to the Wildcat Sanctuary near Sandstone, MN. The unit was being replaced at TCO as part of their upgrade by PMI to all digital imaging.  MRC donated their services for development of the MN Department of Health’s mandated radiation shielding plan, TCO donated the x-ray unit, and PMI donated the installation and calibration of the equipment. This was a great example of business joining forces to both recycle useful equipment, and contribute to the worthy efforts of others.

On Thursday, March 25 (9:00 pm) The Wildcat Sanctuary was featured on The Animal Planet television network’s segment titled “Fatal Attractions.” The Wildcat Sanctuary is a privately funded 501(c)3 non-profit, no-kill rescue and shelter facility for unwanted, mistreated, and neglected privately owned wildcats that pose a potential risk to public safety.  More than 100 wildcats (Lions, Tigers, Cougars, Lynx, etc.) are lovingly cared for there.  It is NOT open to the general public.

Donations and volunteers are needed for the Sanctuary.  Please visit their website for more details and information on how you too can help.
