Local Author, Veterinarian Makes Second Donation to Citrus County Animal Services

On Saturday, July 10, 2021, Citrus County Animal Services (CCAS) hosted a second book signing event 
for local author and veterinarian, Dr. K.C. Nayfield. His new book, “Some of my Best Patients Were 
Animals: Memoirs of a Florida Veterinarian,” tells the story of his career in veterinary medicine. 
During his over forty years of practice, Dr. Nayfield treated a wide variety of animals, including 
wildlife, which resulted  in some interesting tales. Although his practice was in Florida, he made 
several good will medical and surgical trips to the Bahamas and Cuba.


As a result of this book signing, Dr. Nayfield was able to raise a total of $1,055 to be put 
towards a new CCAS animal shelter. When combined with the proceeds from his first book signing 
event in June, his fundraising efforts netted over $2,500. All funds were donated directly to the 
Citrus County Foundation for Animal Protection (CCFAP), whose mission is to help the animals stay 
physically and mentally healthy during their stay at CCAS and to help reduce the length of their 
stay.


Citrus County Animal Services would like to once again thank Dr. Nayfield for his generous 
donations and CCFAP for their partnership. For more information about CCAS, please call (352) 
746-8400. To learn more about CCFAP, visit www.CCFAP.net.
