Wally Settles In and the Gods Arrive!

Yay!! Wally is settled into his new home and doing just fine!! He is living with a new sister named Buttercup (a calico also adopted from us a couple of years ago) and is doing very well. Wally definitely took the long way home!

Two little cuties arrived at the end of last week...Zeus and Apollo. These two boys are litter mates and we hope they get adopted together. You can tell them apart by their feet - Apollo is a polydachtal and has big white feet with extra toes. (You can clearly see that in the picture below). Both are very sweet and playful and just LOVE each other!

Lady has a very sore chin so we brought her back to the shelter on Tuesday. It appears to be a case of feline acne that requires some medical attention so she will stay at the shelter until it clears up. Don't worry...she is just fine with us! Our cats in sick bay get the BEST care!!

There is still two mornings in April that need to be filled...both are Thursdays...April 22 and April 29. Let me know if you are available.

The Spring adoption event at PetSmart this year is Friday through Sunday, April 30 - May 2. I am hoping to extend the hours of the adoption table on Saturday and Sunday and also to be able to bring dogs to the store on both days. Please let me know if you are available to help.

The Shelter is also participating again in the annual Cape May County Earth Day Fair held at the County Park on Saturday, April 17. Volunteers are needed to man the table and to bring dogs to the event. Please let me know if you can do either.

On Friday, April 30 the shelter staff will be at the Cape May City Post Office from 11:30am to 1:30pm with several other animal advocacy groups from Cape May County to participate in the unveiling of a special stamp created by the Unites States Postal Service to bring awareness to the plight of shelter animals. For more information on this national campaign go to www.stampstotherescue.com. If you are available to help that day please let me know.

Have a wonderful holiday!! I hope the Easter bunny is good to all of you!!
