You’re reading this because you’re probably a member of Let’s Adopt! I applaud you for joining our networks.
Now I want to ask you to join our tribe, by becoming an active member of our operations!
We are of course animal lovers, but we are activists first. Which means, that we love all the cute pictures of pups and kitties. However, there are too many cute pups and kitties dying in our shelters and by the hands of abusers and breeders every single day.
We must act – NOW!
I am often disillusioned by what I see, especially on the web. Horrendous abuse, crush videos, starved animals, scared animals going crazy in their kennels at the pound. I have seen many of these cases in my work as an activist and rescuer. The 1-day-old kittens I raised with an eyedropper or feeding tube, just to see them succumb to a simple upper respiratory infection. The kittens that were exposed to FIP, and ultimately died because their intestines and organs literally liquefied inside of them.
However there were hundreds that were a joy to foster and raised to be strong enough to be adopted. There are many, many success stories, which by far outweigh the bad experiences.
Now I want YOU to experience the feeling of saving a life and what an impact you alone can make in your community.
I want YOU to reach out to your local pound and rescue a dog or a cat.
Become its caretaker and angel. We will then rally as a network to adopt the animal into a new home.
Our adoption criteria are strict, yet very simple.
• the adopter has at least one other animal
• the animal will live indoors only! Not in the yard, not on a tie-out, not in a garage, or a barn. It will live indoors as part of the adopters family.
• the animal will be fed a raw diet only. Your animal will be healthier, you will be happier, and you’ll save money in the long run, on cost of food and vet bills. More info can be found at http://rawlearning.com
• We do not apply an adoption fee. One can’t buy any Let’s Adopt! dog or cat.
• We believe that adopting an animal is a privilege, not mercy.
• The adopter will create a Facebook album with photos of the animal with its new family and updates.
These are our adoption rules in a nutshell. Do you think you can handle it?
Have you been thinking of how in the world can you make a difference at these overcrowded pounds? Well, here is your chance to put your action where your heart is.
• Pull an animal.
• Then take it home, let it settle in,
• Take pictures and post it on the Let’s Adopt! Canada page,
• Include all details you have about the animal:
– Age, temper, likes, dislikes, history (stray, dumped by owner, etc)
– We’ll campaign to get the animals adopted.
Do you realize that you will be saving TWO lives at once. Not only will you be taking the one dog off death row, but another one will have a better chance, because there’s new cage space. And hopefully, you’ll inspire friends and family to do the same all over the country.
Perhaps concentrate on high kill facilities. Here’s where you can make a big difference.
There are many small groups that are willing to help you pull an animal and organize transport.
For now – please search your heart and decide whether you can open your home to a rescue this summer. I know you can and want to.
Let us help you figure out how and make it a reality. For the animals and for you.
We can potentially save hundreds of animals this summer. Are you with us?
Let’s start saving lives – one dog, one cat at the time.
