Week of 4/25/15 Humane Happenings

by Eliana Aubin

Great things have been happening at Desert Haven Animal Refuge recently. Dog Town resident, our little love-bug Suzy-Q, was adopted by a local resident Tuesday morning. Before she left the sanctuary to start a brand new life with Flora, her new mom, our furry little gal made her rounds and she happily distributed her hugs and kisses to all of us who were there for the occasion and to wish her the very best in her new life. That little gal sure will be missed by all of us who cared for her and especially by Pretty Boy, the young and playful Pomeranian who has been her playmate for the past several months. Pretty Boy is still waiting patiently for his own forever home. He is wondering why it’s taking so long for him to melt someone’s heart.

Janice working on the new Rainbow Bridge sign

The high winds this past week have just about destroyed the colorful Rainbow Bridge Pet Cemetery sign that has stood strong ever since the cemetery opened-up to serve the community. The animal welfare organization President, Eliana, designed the sign 15 years ago. Owner of Southwest Sign Service in T or C, Jerry Gustin, very generously produced it and put it up into its present location at the front of the pet cemetery, all of it pro-bono. Thank-you, Jerry. Co-owners of Adobe Hacienda Real Estate, Dean Tulk and Janice Gray, are very generously committing to create a brand new sign for Rainbow Bridge Pet Cemetery. They are already working on it. Dean and Janice, you are tops with us!

This week’s high priority wish list: Canned dog and cat food, also small, medium and large milk bones. Some of our fur-kids are getting on in years and we mix canned food with their dry food every morning. At this time, our canned food storage is bare. We need a push-mower in good working condition, also large paper and plastic grocery bags for P&C Thrift Shoppe.
