On 3/19 RESCUE had New Volunteer Orientation. We had about 15 people in attendance. I hope that they enjoy their time with our fantastic organization. We greatly appreciate their willingness to dedicate their time and love to our efforts.
On 3/19 long time RESCUE cat Lacy was adopted. Lacy was adopted by her foster mom. Her foster mom Valerie is a RESCUE volunteer on the "dog side" of our organization. She came to me a couple of weeks ago asking if she could help with cat fostering. Her life was not really conducive to having a dog but she would really enjoy the companionship of a feline. I gave Valerie a couple of names of kitties that could really use her help. She got back to me right away and said that Lacy was the one. She picked her up shortly thereafter and the love affair began instantly. Both Valerie and Lacy were having a grand time. Lacy was showing her true playful personality and Valerie enjoyed her companionship so much. Lacy brought such joy to Valerie's life that she felt she couldn't let her go. So Lacy became an official member of Valerie's home!! We couldn't have been happier for both of them.
You may recall the RESCUE cat Anastasia and her medical conditions
that we were treating. Her primary health concern (the skin infection) has completely healed. Unfortunately Ana's weight continues to be a problem. Ana has only lost a couple of ounces in the last couple of months. :( She is down to a whopping 16 pounds 10 ounces. Last week the weight caused her to limp on her back left leg from a prior injury. The limping has subsided and we continue to work on her weight loss.
Our recent feline additions are doing well and almost completely recovered from their kitty colds. They should be spayed and neutered in the next week or so and then they will go up for adoption.
On 3/20 another long time RESCUE cat Violet was adopted. Violet's new parents have no other dogs or cats and are eager to spoil our girl. We have already received an update and the attached photo is from her new home. A detailed update can be found on our Facebook page under our Photo Album section - Violet.
On 3/21 RESCUE dog Betsy was adopted. Betsy was adopted by a past RESCUE adopter. She is the only dog in a house with three other feline sisters. They are already sleeping together!! Her new parents are already madly in love with her. More details can also be found on RESCUE's Facebook page.
Our recent feline mom Lelah is doing well and her new kitten is growing with each passing day. The kitten is up to 10.25 ounces. The kittens ears are up even more and you can see little slits of the kittens eyes now. By next week she/he will be seeing and hearing all the noises and sights of her foster home.
I think that just about covers all things RESCUE for the moment! Please continue to come back and follow RESCUE's journey. Here's to a great week!!
