Quick Exit For Joey!

Joey went home Wednesday night. He is going to be living with a couple of old friends of ours - Penn and JellyBean. Many of you may remember them. His new family is so nice! They saw Joey over the weekend and came to the Shelter and completed an application on Monday.

Joey came into the Shelter with two other cats - Zoey and Sandy. Their owner was having health issues and could not keep them. Zoey was adopted from the Shelter. The last man standing is Sandy. He was brought to PetSmart yesterday. Sandy is a couple of years old. He is very friendly and is good with everything and everybody - other cats, dogs and kids are not a problem for Sandy. As you can see in the below picture he is VERY handsome!

I am getting word that there seems to be inconsistent information being given to volunteers pertaining to taking supplies (litter and food) from the shelves and replacing the brown paper to line the cages. I am doing the adoption table on Sunday. I promise that I will get all the correct answers by Monday and pass it on to everyone.

Our regular Tuesday morning volunteer, Kitty, will be taking a few months off beginning February 23. I am happy to say she will be returning as soon as she can but we are definitely going to miss her. Many of you know her from her days working at Abri Animal Hospital. She is a big asset to this program. So, if anyone wants to step in and take over her spot for a while please let me know. Kitty was scheduled Tuesdays with the exception of the second one of the month.

I have not heard from any of the dog handler volunteers about the Second Chance For Love Adoption Weekend. I also need more help with the adoption table that weekend. Here is what I need:
Fri, February 12, Adoption Table 2-4
Sat, February 13, Adoption Table 12-2, Dog handlers 12:30-3:30
Sun, February 14, Adoption Table 12-3, Dog handlers 12:30-2:30

In addition to the above weekend coverage is needed for the following dates in February:
Fri, February 19, AM
Tue, February 23, AM
Fri, February 26, AM
Sun, February 28, Adoption Table

If you can help with the adoption weekend or cover any of the openings please let me know.
