Special Alert for Joanie the Cat!

We're issuing a special 'Adopt Me' alert for sweet Joanie, a Joanie a lynx-point Siamese-X with lovely blue eyes. Joanie has just had a difficult time recently, so we thought she deserved some extra attention. Not long ago, Joanie was abandoned in Prescott by her family, and a wonderful UAF volunteer befriended her, fed her sardines and salmon, and made a bed for her in the carport shed to hopefully keep her safe from coyotes.

After being checked out by a local vet, Joanie's prognosis is excellent! The vet said she's perfectly healthy, FELIV/FIV negative, and probably around two years old. A faint scar on her abdomen also indicates she may have already been spayed. Joanie would be best as an only cat but she is tolerant of dogs. She's got a great attitude and is incredibly friendly and loving; she just needs that special person to give her all she's been missing out on!If you would like to add some sweetness to your life by fostering or adopting little Joanie, please contact Jan below. If you would like to meet Joanie, please download the questionnaire, fill it out and email it to Jan. If you have questions you can call Jan at 928-772-7210 or email her at the above address.

Pawtentially Yours: Bear

For all of us who've been paying close attention to Bear's recovery, here's a little something to really brighten your day! Recently, Bear stopped into the CableONE studios to film his very own "Pawtentially Yours" spot. It shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone that Bear was an absolute star! This friendly fella is just such a great example of the power of the animal spirit that we had to share. His story is also a noteworthy showcase of the potential of humans to answer the call of animals in need. See what type of awesome energy Bear exudes in the video below!

Bunny Fosters Needed!

Please see the note below from Dori with Tranquility Trail, and contact her at bunnylovept@gmail.com if you can help!

"Tranquility Trail in Scottsdale was contacted on Friday by a woman with a backyard bunny situation that had gotten out of control. We were told there were 40 bunnies. When we got there we realize the situation was a lot worse. The first day we counted 80 bunnies as we caught, sexed and separated the bunnies. Day 2 we were over 100 bunnies. There are still many more in underground burrows. Many of the girls have gone underground to have there babies trying to escape the 110 degree heat of the Arizona summer. And many more of the girls are pregnant.
Our sanctuary is already full as this has been an exceptionally bad after Easter dump season. We are trying to find any rescues that may have room for some of the bunnies, even 1 or 2 bunnies would be a tremendous help! Also if anyone in the Phoenix area has an empty business, warehouse or house we can use temporarily to help get the bunnies out of the heat we would be so grateful. We can also use short term and long term foster homes. Spreading the word would help us out so much too!"
