Catmandoo Rescue Group

Silver linings!!

HUGE Shout Out and an even bigger THANK YOU to Centinela Feed in Westchester for the donation to Catmandoo today. You guys totally ROCK!!!

And little Caleb is going home to a lovely couple who just lost their 15 and 18 year old poodles. I love this couple. They will be on the search for a second poodle mix for Caleb.

Our little Sheba got the bestest home. She’s a Valentine’s Day surprise for his wife and 17 year old daughter. They have another pup at home so this is just perfect!!!

Turns out there are more than 2 shades of people.

All we want for Christmas.

Every once in a while something happens that just so brightens your world you have to share. This is one of those. Young woman came into our adoptions on Saturday with her 6 year old daughter. Says "you won't remember me I'm sure, but I adopted a cat 10 years ago from you and now that I'm married and have my own little girl, I wanted her to have the same experience I did. It's time for her to have her own little buddy." She then said she'd been looking for me for a while, that I had been hard to find but she was determined to find me. I think the picture says it all (she still has the 10 year old cat)

Need foster, Catmandoo will back. Or need rescue to take. Hate to see em go to shelter

Copied and Pasted "Be easy on rescuers this weekend. Hug them. Thank them. Buy them a beer. Every rescue I know is at the same point we are: full, broke and exhausted. Every rescuer is to the breaking point. Compassion fatigue and the consequences are great in rescue. It wears your soul down. Sadly we rescuers can't take the ones going down for space today. Every animal control we work with this week has begged and sent pictures. We save them or they die. Many we could not... save. We. Just. Could. Not. I'm not talking just about my rescue, but every rescue I know. Those faces of the ones we could not save, they haunt our souls. Saying you can't save them all is nothing but a line uttered to try and ease the guilt. There is no easing the guilt. Our personal lives suffer. Our wallets suffer. Our mental health suffers. If we lash out or do not get back with you in a timely manner, please be understanding. Ask how you can help. Ask how we are doing. Listen to us bitch for five minutes. But don't judge until you are the one deciding who to save and who you can't save. If you can foster, please do. If you donate please do. And if you pray, send up a prayer for those we can't take. Hundreds lost their lives this week in NW GA/Metro area for nothing more than lack of space and it's just June." #compassionfatigueawareness - Kelly Haas Shackelford Copied and Pasted
