The A-Team!

Last month, the NBSPCA seized almost 200 dogs in 2 seperate incidents. That's ALOT of dogs!! And even though, I'm a cat and I think that dogs are inferior...I would never ever want them to suffer. So I am so grateful to the NBSPCA inspectors and our team of volunteers from the Oromocto SPCA who gave many many hours of their time to help vaccinate, deworm, process and make all 189 of these canines comfortable. Our shelter alone took in over 70 of these wonderful souls. And I'm happy to report that they are all doing well!!

Take a look at the faces in these pictures...those are the faces of some of the most caring, amazing people that I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. We are lucky that the A-Team is our team!!

Hope Comes in Many Forms

First things first...I need to introduce myself. My name is Mrs. McCave. You can call me Mrs. McCave. I am the new office cat. A little while ago, Agatha was adopted and I sneaked my way into the new position. I'm pretty good at it but I'm still learning. One thing I've managed to figure out perfectly is how to get little pieces of the girls' lunch. The rest will follow.

Secondly, I want to tell you all about something pretty amazing that happened recently. Some wonderful people who are part of The Meeting Place Church got together and decided to raise some money for us after we had a theft here in the summertime. Many Many people stepped up to help us after that theft, and we are SO grateful. What made this particular donation so special was that these amazing people, are homeless. Homeless people looking out for homeless animals. It touched us to our core.

So to return the kindness, the staff at the shelter decided to surprise these amazing men and women. They took pizza and pop and ice cream and spent the evening talking and getting to know these angels. There were tears and laughter and so many Thank You's.

But honestly...we took away so much more from this experience than just the monetary part of it. These angels gave us back our hope. Sometimes, hope comes in funny ways...sometimes in a used jar of honey garlic sauce filled with change.

Wordless Wednesday

DOG-GONE IT!

Did you know that when you adopt a dog...you save 2 lives? The life of the dog you have adopted, and the life of another dog who is waiting. It's a win/win situation....for you, for the dog, and for us...because we get to help more orphans who need us.

We have alot of dogs here right now. WAY too many. Of course, as a cat, I think one is too many. So I've decided to overthrow the staff and drop the adoption fees to only $75. Maybe that will help get some of these dogs out of here. I'll just have to keep an eye on the girls...they're bound to just fill the place up again with more dogs. My work here is truly never done....

6 More Days...

Only 6 more days to our new fundraiser...Barkitecture! The decorative doghouses have been coming in and are ready to be auctioned off on Saturday.

We hope that you will drop into the shelter on Saturday at 1pm to take part and help us raise money for the homeless dogs and cats. Cause even though it's called "Bark"itecture...us cats will benefit too!

July Success!

We had a wonderful July this year! It was busy as usual, with 59 cats and kittens finding their way to the shelter in need of care and attention and a second chance. And because of our campaign to get as many adult cats and kittens into new homes during that month...I am proud to say that 61 of them were adopted by new, loving homes!!
We are so excited and proud! Now on to August...
The work never stops...the door rarely closes...and our hearts never shut down. There are still so many that need homes...
Maybe August will be my lucky month. :)
