Marvin & Dr. Finocchio

Marvin and Dr. Finocchi were inspired to help other special needs animals by Kathy Barton, 4th grade teacher from OK, and Xavier the cat. Read their story!

Dr. Finocchio of the R.I. SPCA reflects on life with Marvin and his association with HandicappedPets.com:

Every Year, Kathy Barton from Velma, Oklahoma, works with her 4th grade class to learn about handicapped pets. In doing so, they learn about helping others and respecting those with special needs. As a part of the curriculum, they raise money and buy a wheelchair for a pet in need.
