| A feline friend at Desert Haven |
This past week, Desert Haven Animal
Refuge became home to Jennie-Mae, a Jack Russell rescued from an abusive
situation. It didn’t take long for the little gal to start feeling safe and
happy in her new environment. Another little life saved, and it felt good.
Vulcan arrived at Desert Haven this past
Tuesday. The young black kitty with obvious Russian Blue ancestry has taken up
temporary residency in the Howdy Room, the room-with-a-view especially reserved
for all new feline arrivals. The cozy Howdy Room is conveniently located adjacent
to the Cat Walk, itself part of the Neighborhood, the 1200 square feet
indoor-outdoor feline living quarters. Soon, Vulcan will join the other feline
residents. Interested in perhaps adopting a Desert Haven feline? Visit the
sanctuary on a Tuesday when it is open to visitors, between 10 am and 4 pm. Perhaps you prefer to peruse through Petfinder
before you decide to visit. The photos and stories of our little ones are posted at www.Petfinder.com/DesertHavenAnimalRefuge.
Jane
is a current work camper at Desert Haven. A genuine feline aficionado and while residing at the sanctuary, Jane plans to
update on Petfinder the information, including temperament and photos, on all the
resident felines.
Would
you like to become involved in our animal welfare cause? Visit the sanctuary on
a Tuesday and take part in its activities for a couple of hours, share lunch
with our team and then decide where you believe you can best make a difference.
Our organization offers several programs
that serve the residents of TorC and surrounding communities. Do you prefer to help out from your own home
perhaps? What about organizing animal oriented projects, either on your own or
as part of a community-minded group you belong to? With Walmart no longer
donating their damaged bags and cans of pet food to our non-profit volunteer organization,
the contributions of local and out-of-town supporters are even more crucial. Among feathered and other furry residents, an
average of 30 felines and 20 canines, all active and healthy, require plenty of
good food daily. And then they like treats of course! Your donated pet food and treats can be dropped-off
inside Paws & Claws Thrift Shoppe from Wed through Sat, between 10:30 and
4:30.
Routine and emergency veterinary
care is always a must. Consider contributing to this worthwhile cause by
sending a monthly contribution to our 501-c-3 non-profit animal welfare organization
at PO Box 638,
Williamsburg, NM 87942. E-mail us at weR4pets@gmail.com.
