14th Annual Spay A Stray Pet Walk

It's time again for C.A.R.E.'s annual Spay A Stray Pet Walk! It's hard to believe that the walk is here again, but that means it is the spring. And it means that we will be out and about meeting our friends for this yearly event. The walk will be held on Saturday, May 19, 2012 from 10am to 1pm. The walk is at FDR Park (Broad and Pattison Aves.) Philadelphia, PA. There will be games, refreshments, and a toy for each pet on the day of the walk. Wendy Young, professional dog trainer and a friend of C.A.R.E, will also be there again this year to give complimentary lessons to your pets. Bring your friends and family (especially the ones with 4 feet). Please help make our 14th annual walk a success. All proceeds benefit our spay/neuter program and are tax deductible. If you have any questions or would like to to be a walker, please call 215-462-1889. You can walk with or without a pet. If you can't walk, you can sponsor a walker. Or you can sponsor the spaying or neutering of an animal. We hope to see you at the park!

 

I am wishing that we see you at the walk this year! 

Mya Update

A friend of ours asked us to post some more information about Mya, the adorable kitten that was found in the Poconos. Mya was spayed and she is making an excellent recovery. She is also now up to date on shots including rabies and is FIV/FELV. She is a little cutie and is still looking for her forever home. If you would like to adopt Mya, please contact us at carephilly@gmail.com.

Little Miss Mya

A friend of CARE asked us to post these pictures of Mya, a sweet kitten she recently found.

Mya is about 4 months old and is a tabby. She is an absolutely gorgeous cat. Our friend found her on a farm in the Poconos. Mya was emaciated and freezing when our friend discovered her. But she must have known that our friend was going to take her out of that situation because she jumped right in the car and was ready to go!

Our friend said that Mya is one of the sweetest kittens she has ever encountered. She's a lap cat and she always sleeps curled up against your legs. She gets along very well with other cats, but she seems to be afraid of dogs. She is litterbox trained and eats dry and wet food. She was lucky enough to find a person who wanted to help her. Now she needs a forever home. Please give her a home! She will have all shots and be spayed before adoption. Please look at Mya's pictures... and admit it, you know you will fall in love with her! If you would like to adopt Mya, please contact us at carephilly@gmail.com.

Adoption Day Follow Up

Rocky



C.A.R.E. had an adoption day yesterday, October 7, 2011, in front of Queen Village Animal Hospital. We wanted to find some homes for our rescues, and we also wanted to meet people and talk about our spay and neuter program. We brought Rocky and Valerie with us; both of these cats are still looking for their special homes. Rocky was a star. He really liked it when people came by to pet him. He's about four years old and he has a food allergy, so he needs to eat special food. He's fine other than his allergy, so he'll make a great companion for someone who can give him a home.


Valerie


Valerie has come with us to adoptions before, so she's a professional now. She knows that when she sits in her cage and looks adorable, nobody can resist her pretty face. Before long, Valerie ends up getting some attention. She's about a year old, and she's looking for her forever family.

If you're interested in adopting Rocky or Valerie, Please email carephilly@gmail.com or call 215-462-1889.

C.A.R.E. Adoption Day 10/7/11

On Friday, October 7, 2011, C.A.R.E. will be in front of Queen Village Animal Hospital (323 Bainbridge Street- Philadelphia, PA). We've recently found some lovely homes for our rescues, and we would like to find even more homes. We'll be there after 9:30 a.m. It looks like the weather is going to be gorgeous, so unless that changes, we'll be there. We love meeting people and talking to them about our animals and about our spay and neuter program. If you're interested in adopting a new friend with four feet, or if you have questions about spaying and neutering, please stop by and talk to us.

A Home for the Boys!

We are pleased to announce that Simon and Theodore have found their forever home! These two brothers have been waiting for three years for a special place of their own. The waiting paid off because they found the best home in the world. We are so happy that our two snuggly guys have a family now. Hooray!

More Friends of the Family

I just got a phone call from another friend of C.A.R.E. She told me that she rescued 5 kittens. They were found in a box in the parking lot of a shopping center. Someone apparently simply left them there. Thank goodness that my friend was shopping today and that her friend told her about these babies. The kittens are safe and are being fostered. Their foster mom said that they seem to be doing well, and that they will be ready for forever homes soon. They are probably about 4-5 weeks old now. These cats are not C.A.R.E. cats, but the friend asked me to post information about them here on Sam Sez and on Facebook. If you're interested in adopting one (or two or three), contact carephilly@gmail.com. Pictures of these cute kitties will follow soon. I'm working on getting their cute fuzzy faces up on this site.
