In the Animal Rescue World
Page County: A coalition of rescue groups and animal welfare
organizations is gathering funds to build a new shelter in Page County,
Virginia, where Princess Fluffy was housed. To see a picture of the shelter,
visit the Princess
Fluffy
page, which shows her in a filthy shelter. (She's now safe, clean and
looking for a good home.) What you don't see is that normally they have
crammed four dogs into these runs, exposing them all to disease. And what
you don't know is that this same coaltion has managed to expose and stop
the barbaric practice of shelter officials shooting dogs and cats instead
of putting them to sleep humanely. They are trying to raise $4.32 for each
resident in Page County -- that's all it will take to set up a larger, clean,
properly ventilated, heated and cooled kennel. If you can just send $4.32
-- less than one lunch at a fast-food restaurant -- this shelter can get
built. Send funds to: AFH - Page County Animal Shelter, P. O. Box 222801,
Chantilly, VA 20153. Please reference: Page County Shelter Fund on memo
line. Thanks!
