The New UAF Pet Food Trailer!!!

Big thanks go to Andrea and Chuck Peterson Graphic Design of Prescott! All Andrea's incredibly hard work paid off when Peterson Design kindly donated the wonderful design work on our gorgeous new pet food bank trailer. The new trailer will store food for the UAF Pet Food Bank, ultimately helping hundreds of needy, hungry animals in our community get the nourishment they need. Look out for Andrea at local adoption events and around town! And send some business to Chuck Peterson Graphic Design of Prescott if you need any design work. A friend to animals is a friend to us!

Sweet Success!

United Animal Friends enjoyed a truly wonderful adoption weekend. Check out Andrea's recap of these successful past few days . . .

Wow! Valentine's Day could not have been sweeter! The United Animal Friends Valentine's Bake Sale and Cupid's Cat Adoption Event was a great success! UAF took over Petco- literally... Sweets were everywhere, we even had coffee. In addition to five kitties finding their forever homes, We made over $160.00 from the baked goodies!!! A BIG HUG and Thank you goes to Gayle for decorating everything and making it look so beautiful. Thank you to our wonderful UAF bakers, helpers & cat fosters for making this so much fun- Toby, Gayle, Codi, Mel, Lynn, Ruthann, Katie, Ruth, Karen, Jan, Dawn, Kathy, Krys, Joyce, Linda, Allie, Ray, Joan, and our new volunteers Jessica and Ashley - who rocked! (And apologies and extra thanks to any we may have forgotten in this list!) Gayle would like to add a special thanks to her trusty V-Day Bake Sale Helpers: "A special thank you to my four footed helpers for bringing in the money from the outside table and to our new volunteers Ashely and Jessica, they were a great help!"
Between yesterday at Petsmart and today at Petco we helped 11 of our wonderful UAF animals find true love with their new forever families. UAF has very high standards of adoption and with that said, we hope to find the perfect matches for our foster animals. Again, thank you to everyone who helped make this weekend happen. Happy Valentine's Day!
