At the Garth England Blood Center in Fort Collins, thousands of people donate their blood to UCHealth's blood bank every year. Down the street from Garth England Blood Center, Cora is a regular at CSU's veterinary teaching hospital. "You would be surprised at how many dogs actually need blood," Cooper said. "I'm always surprised people don't realize dogs and cats donate just like people donate," said Amanda Cavanaugh, emergency and critical care vet for CSU. UCHealth is also seeking more human donors at its blood banks, which help provide critical supplies of blood to hospitals across Northern Colorado.
