Meet Ginny
Ginny is a sweet old broad, approx. 15 years old whose
family dropped her off at the pound in Pennsylvania.
The shelter had tried to find a home for her. We had listed
her on Facebook and still no one would give her a home.
Ginny has severe hypertension. We have her on medication now
to handle that. I suspect that may have caused her blindness. The
sad thing is I told the shelter when I saw her picture that she needed
to be treated for hypertension. They do not provide medical
care like that. She also has serious kidney disease.
She is a nice old lady who is adjusting. You may watch
her live on Friday’s on Ustream
Meet Jewell
Jewell is another sweet old lady who came
to us from the same shelter that Ginny came
from. She had been turned into animal control
2 years ago and adopted. This new owner dropped
her back off at animal control no longer wanting her.
She also is hypertensive and has kidney
disease. She is not fond of other cats
but is settling down. You may watch her
live 24 hours a day on her MeShare Camera

Why You Should Spay/Neuter your Pets
Of of the most important things you can do for your
pets is getting them fixed. That means sterilizing them to prevent
them from having or making babies.
There are many health benefits of spaying and neutering.
Spayed animals no longer feel the need to roam to look for a mate.
We encourage cats to remain inside but it may help them from running
the door and have less chance of being involved in traumatic accidents
such as being hit by a car. They will have a much lower chance of
contracting contagious diseases and get into fewer fights.
In males, neutering decreases the chances of developing prostatic
disease and hernias, and eliminates the chanced of developing
testicular cancer. It reduces problems with territorial and sexual
aggression, inappropriate urination (spraying) and other undesirable
male behaviors.
In females spaying decreases the incidence of breast cancer (the
rate goes down to almost zero if the spaying is done before the
first heat cycle!) It eliminates the chance of developing pyometra, a
serious and potentially fatal infection of the uterus experienced by
many mature unspayed animals. Spaying your female pet eliminates
the problem of stray males camping in your yard and decreases
her desire to roam and breed. Females in heat often cry
incessantly, show nervous behavior.
Prevent a litter - it’s good for the community!
Communities spend millions of dollars to control and eliminate
unwanted animals. You are helping to alleviate the dog and cat over
population problem. Every year, millions of unwanted dogs and cats
are killed at shelters across the county. You are saving a life!
There are many low cost spay/neuter clinics all over the US.
HERE is a database for ones connected with Petsmart. BUT if you
will Google the info for your location you will find more. I found
thousands of pages of resources.
