Requirements for Feline Donors Healthy, even-tempered cats of either sex. Cats should weigh at least 9 pounds. Cats should be between 1 and 9 years of age. Blood donation is NOT a painful process. Potential donors are screened for personality, fitness, and cooperation.
Selected donors are then blood typed and undergo a series of blood tests.
Donors are then placed on a regulated donating schedule. All blood testing is free of charge to the owner. Donors, and all animals belonging to the owner, will receive blood free of charge on a 1 for 1 basis. The Lexington Animal Blood Bank works in association with the AA Small Animal Emergency Service.
