Happy Tails!

ADOPTED!
Have some exciting news! Pickles the Sato pup was adopted yesterday! She has a new home with her new parents and mini Schnauzer sister! Very happy for her and her new family.

The Asbury Park Press was at Petco in Eatontown yesterday for their Critter Tails online segment. They asked about the rescue and will feature some of our pups! And in the end we have the adoption of Pickles! We love happy endings! The segment will run on app.com on Saturday! Don't judge our on camera skills we are not actors by any means okay?!, but the dogs shined! Jessie was as beautiful as ever and loves the camera! Hopefully the feature will help bring awareness to the dogs that need loving homes.

 Sadly Jessie is the by-product of a divorce.  Her parents split up and three years after caring for this sweet girl, there was no room for her. This breaks my heart because I could never give up one of my own, she must be so confused.  Jessie is currently a resident of Camp Bow Wow until we can find her a forever home.  She is good with everyone.  Hopefully that this is the week that Jessie will be able to rest her head on a dog bed in a permanent home!

In Kitten News....
Karen, one of our super devoted foster parents and V.P. of WOI had a very interesting turn of events this week. While she was at work, a woman came in looking for help. She had three tiny three week old kittens who had just lost their mother and would not survive without around the clock care. Their mother was sadly hit by a car and these babies were left orphaned.  
 

 
 
Without hesitation, Karen took these tiny babies in. Mind you she is not a natural 'cat person', but has many rescue dogs. These kittens need to be fed with a dropper with formula until they can start eating kitten food. They need to be fed many times throughout the day, cleaned regularly and need humans to rely on what their Momma would have given them. It is very hard work and not something that most would easily do.  They are very lucky that Karen had taken them in or they may not have survived. There names are Marbles, Siron & Simba.

WE will keep you updated on the kittens and their progress. The kittens will need to have vet care, shots and will be spayed/neutered when ready.  I have heard that the orange one has already been spoken for when he is ready to be adopted. :)
 
If you would like to contribute to the care of the kittens please go to our website to donate. Every bit helps and it all goes to the animals!
 
If you would like to volunteer with WOI we desperately need help with the cats at the Petco in Eatontown for morning and evenings.  Its simple and involves socializing with the cats, feeding and cleaning the litter boxes. Can do as much or as little as you like. If you can help please contact Andrea at azelanko@yahoo.com
