A Paw Step to Celebrate!<br />
Mark G<strong>ol</strong>dstein, DVM,<br />
CAWA, President of<br />
the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Humane</strong><br />
<strong>Society</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>SPCA</strong><br />
with his dog Ren.<br />
A<br />
Chinese proverb states, “The journey is the reward,” <strong>and</strong> I couldn’t agree more. In my ten years at the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong><br />
<strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>SPCA</strong>, I have joyfully, <strong>and</strong> sometimes tearfully, watched our organization take step after<br />
step, paw after paw, on the path of contributing to a more compassionate society. In our last issue, I discussed<br />
the many paw steps we’ve taken to get to the place we are today, helping more animals <strong>and</strong> people than ever before in<br />
our 130 year history. <strong>No</strong>w, I’d like to take a moment to share with you where we are heading.<br />
When we extended our services to Oceanside <strong>and</strong> Vista more than a year ago, we made a heartfelt commitment to<br />
touch more human <strong>and</strong> animal lives on a deeper level. In the past year we have completed over $300,000 in renovations<br />
to our <strong>No</strong>rth Campus on <strong>San</strong> Luis Rey Road. We’ve helped more children experience the human-animal bond first h<strong>and</strong><br />
by introducing our successful Animal Adventure Camp to the Oceanside <strong>and</strong> Vista communities. We’ve also added a<br />
mobile veterinary facility <strong>and</strong> a full-time veterinarian to treat more injured animals.<br />
Caring for <strong>and</strong> finding homes for the animals we love so much–including lost or stray animals–is a very special part<br />
of who we are. Yet our organization also does so much more to enrich animal <strong>and</strong> human lives in our community. A<br />
sample of other services that we provide include humane education for youth <strong>and</strong> adults, animal cruelty investigations,<br />
Pet-Assisted Therapy <strong>and</strong> a variety of specialized training courses for companion animals <strong>and</strong> their owners to contribute<br />
to a positive environment <strong>and</strong> healthy society.<br />
In support of the many growing programs resulting from our expansion with the <strong>No</strong>rth Campus, I’m thrilled to announce that<br />
we now have entered into a long-term agreement to lease an additional property less than a mile away from our existing location<br />
on <strong>San</strong> Luis Rey Road. Positioned on Airport Road, this new, additional location provides approximately 30,000 square feet of<br />
much needed space to house our increasing number of stray animals <strong>and</strong> exp<strong>and</strong>ing programs in <strong>No</strong>rth County.<br />
Fulfilling the promise, “together, we can do more,” this new location is the first step of many to leveraging the success<br />
we’ve had with our Gaines <strong>and</strong> Sherman Campuses in central <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> to the communities of <strong>No</strong>rth County. The<br />
location on Airport Road will become the public animal campus in <strong>No</strong>rth County, which will eventually look <strong>and</strong> feel very<br />
similar to the Gaines Campus. Our existing location on <strong>San</strong> Luis Rey Road will become more like our Sherman Campus,<br />
a safe haven for animals with special needs <strong>and</strong> a place to house animals transferred from other humane societies <strong>and</strong><br />
municipal facilities within <strong>and</strong> outside of <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> County.<br />
When the Gaines Campus first opened its doors to the public in September 2003, a famous reflection by Mahatma G<strong>and</strong>hi<br />
was written on its walls: “The greatness of a nation <strong>and</strong> its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.” The<br />
<strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong> has m<strong>ol</strong>ded its beliefs around this concept for over a century <strong>and</strong> has put this concept into practice<br />
in a variety of ways. For example, housing adoptable animals in comfortable apartment-like habitats versus traditional kennels<br />
demonstrates that animals should not only be treated humanely, but loved <strong>and</strong> cared for as part of our families as well.<br />
The design of the Gaines campus, with its modern medical <strong>and</strong> behavioral resources, benefits the animals profoundly<br />
as they wait to be adopted. Moving forward, our exp<strong>and</strong>ed location in Oceanside will similarly provide a safe, comfortable<br />
<strong>and</strong> enriching environment for stray <strong>and</strong> relinquished animals <strong>and</strong> more space to serve <strong>and</strong> help educate the community.<br />
It is only by your support that the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>SPCA</strong> continues to grow <strong>and</strong> exp<strong>and</strong> its positive<br />
impact. From the bottom my heart, thank you for believing in us <strong>and</strong> continuing to support our vision: to inspire <strong>and</strong><br />
engage the community to end animal suffering. We can’t do it without you! Please tune into our 14 th Annual Telethon<br />
happening on CBS 8 KFMB-TV on Sunday March 6 th <strong>and</strong> call in!<br />

Thanks <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong>!<br />
I have always been a bunny person so when I<br />
saw Lonnie, the little grey dwarf rabbit in the<br />
Bunny Cottage at the <strong>No</strong>rth Campus, I just had<br />
to have him as a companion. He is such a great<br />
animal! He lives in a double-decker cage with a<br />
pen attached to the front <strong>and</strong> gets daily romps<br />
through the living room. I think he’s letting me<br />
live with him instead of the other way around.<br />
He may act entitled, but he shows his appreciation with lots of snuggles <strong>and</strong> kisses.<br />
Thanks so much for giving both of us a better life!<br />
Kevin R.<br />
Dear <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong>,<br />
Last month I adopted Chloe (formerly Beezy) from the <strong>No</strong>rth<br />
Campus. I had never adopted a kitty before, but was ready<br />
to make the commitment <strong>and</strong> decided that a cat would be<br />
best fit for my lifestyle <strong>and</strong> living situation. I did quite a bit<br />
of research before I met Chloe <strong>and</strong> knew as soon as she came<br />
down from her perch to meet me that she was special. Chloe<br />
now spends her days hunting her favorite stuffed mouse,<br />
having her belly rubbed, f<strong>ol</strong>lowing me around to make sure<br />
she’s “in the know” <strong>and</strong> taking naps by the window. She has been such a delight <strong>and</strong><br />
I’m so glad she is a part of my life. I think she feels the same way.<br />

Hi <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong>,<br />
We wanted to let everyone know; don’t pass up the<br />
opportunity to adopt a senior dog! When we felt ready<br />
to adopt, our first stop was at the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Humane</strong><br />
<strong>Society</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>SPCA</strong>. Lucky for us, Leasha, a 12 year <strong>ol</strong>d<br />
American bulldog/lab mix was available. After spending<br />
only a few minutes with her, my son knew she was the<br />
one. Leasha has been with us for about six weeks <strong>and</strong><br />
she has settled in so well with our family. She loves<br />
w<strong>and</strong>ering in her new yard <strong>and</strong> watching the birds fly<br />
by. Her favorite sleeping spot is under the piano in<br />
the living room. She is far more playful than we ever<br />
thought she’d be at 12 years. It is the most amazing feeling taking a senior dog home;<br />
you can feel their immediate gratification <strong>and</strong> unconditional love.<br />
The Jenkins Family,<br />
Gordon, Michelle, Chris <strong>and</strong> Nick<br />
Do you have a happy adoption story to share? Then we’d love to hear from you!<br />

You Can See it in Their Eyes<br />
The <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong><br />
<strong>Humane</strong><br />
<strong>Society</strong>’s Foster<br />
Care Program<br />
is a nurturing,<br />
rehabilitating <strong>and</strong><br />
often life-saving<br />
program for baby<br />
animals, mothers with<br />
litters, animals with<br />
minor medical needs or<br />
those needing special<br />
attention.<br />
With dedication <strong>and</strong> passion, 73 special<br />
v<strong>ol</strong>unteers open their homes <strong>and</strong> hearts<br />
to provide vulnerable animals the support<br />
they need until they are healthy or <strong>ol</strong>d<br />
enough to be adopted.<br />
While animals cannot use words to<br />
communicate, they have a language all<br />
their own. With one glimpse at a dog’s<br />
tail, you can tell if he is excited, calm or<br />
afraid. The look in an animal’s eyes is<br />
very expressive, often showing just how<br />
much he trusts <strong>and</strong> loves you. Animal body<br />
language, from a cat resting in a cubby<br />
h<strong>ol</strong>e to a 100 pound dog trying to squeeze<br />
onto your lap, says, “I feel<br />
comfortable with you”<br />
or “I need some space.”<br />
Like people, animals<br />
feel a range of emotions,<br />
including pain. They<br />
cannot use words to<br />
tell you what exactly is<br />
wrong, but sometimes,<br />
it’s easy to see.<br />

cover story<br />
At a Wal-Mart store in Oceanside, a<br />
customer heard an odd squealing noise<br />
in the parking lot. Beside a dumpster<br />
in a cardboard box, he discovered four<br />
8-day-<strong>ol</strong>d puppies <strong>and</strong> brought them<br />
to the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong> <strong>and</strong><br />
<strong>SPCA</strong> <strong>No</strong>rth Campus. Hungry, thin, c<strong>ol</strong>d<br />
<strong>and</strong> dirty, they were covered in filth.<br />
Sick <strong>and</strong> weak, their feet, tummies,<br />
<strong>and</strong> noses had sores <strong>and</strong> ulcers. The<br />
pups were immediately bathed, fed<br />
<strong>and</strong> examined by a veterinarian, <strong>and</strong><br />
transferred to our Paws Nursery for<br />
overnight care while awaiting an open<br />
foster home the next day.<br />
Karen Kelley has been the Foster<br />
Care Supervisor for the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong><br />
<strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong> for almost five years.<br />
She began fostering Jeff, Nick, Drew<br />
<strong>and</strong> Justin when they were 9-days-<strong>ol</strong>d.<br />
By 3-weeks-<strong>ol</strong>d, almost all of their sores<br />
had healed, <strong>and</strong> they were steadily<br />
gaining weight. As a result of aroundthe-clock<br />
care from our Foster Program,<br />
Jeff, Drew, Nick <strong>and</strong> Justin developed<br />
into healthy pups. With resilient <strong>and</strong><br />
loving personalities, it wasn’t long before<br />
they all found new homes.<br />
Foster v<strong>ol</strong>unteers often talk about a<br />
special kind of resiliency in their foster<br />
animals. The smallest of animals, who<br />
come into our care so helpless <strong>and</strong><br />
fragile, can thrive with just a little love.<br />
“Every day, they say ‘thank you’ with<br />
their eyes,” commented Liz Johnson,<br />
V<strong>ol</strong>unteer Coordinator at the <strong>No</strong>rth<br />
Campus, who worked with Foster<br />
Parents in Vista <strong>and</strong> Oceanside for more<br />
than two years.<br />
At our <strong>No</strong>rth Campus, four kittens<br />
came in as strays <strong>and</strong> were immediately<br />
placed into the home of long-time foster<br />
parents Karen <strong>and</strong> Ben Russell. They<br />
were bottle-fed every few hours for<br />
three <strong>and</strong> a half weeks <strong>and</strong> nurtured<br />
until they were <strong>ol</strong>d enough to become<br />
available for adoption. Karen said, “It’s<br />
such a joy to witness their growth <strong>and</strong><br />
see their different personalities emerge.<br />
My children <strong>and</strong> husb<strong>and</strong> love being a<br />
part of this – we all do.”<br />
Hippity, a 4-year-<strong>ol</strong>d bunny featured<br />
on the cover, came into our foster<br />
program after being attacked by a<br />
dog. He was in shock when he was<br />
carried through the doors of our <strong>No</strong>rth<br />
Campus, with four broken ribs <strong>and</strong><br />
possible pulmonary contusions. Hippity<br />
spent weeks recovering in our Medical<br />
Department <strong>and</strong> was then fostered<br />
by Kevin Rooten. For two additional<br />
weeks, Kevin provided Hippity with<br />
extra one-on-one attention <strong>and</strong><br />
socialization, remarking that after all<br />
that Hippity had gone through; his<br />
gentle <strong>and</strong> affectionate personality was<br />
truly amazing.<br />
Hippity was in fact so amazing that<br />
we chose him as a c<strong>and</strong>idate for our Pet-<br />
Assisted Therapy program. <strong>No</strong>w healthy<br />
<strong>and</strong> thriving, Hippity currently visits<br />
patients at hospitals, nursing homes,<br />
children’s centers <strong>and</strong> more, raising<br />
spirits <strong>and</strong> brightening days with his big<br />
heart. He will complete his Pet-Assisted<br />
Therapy service in six months <strong>and</strong> then<br />
become available for adoption.<br />
Acting as a liaison between the foster<br />
parents <strong>and</strong> the <strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong>, Karen<br />
Kelley provides v<strong>ol</strong>unteers with the<br />
necessary training, supplies <strong>and</strong> support<br />
needed to care for their foster animals,<br />
including food, bowls, bedding, toys,<br />
litter, medication, <strong>and</strong> any veterinary<br />
services. Being a Foster V<strong>ol</strong>unteer is a<br />
rewarding <strong>and</strong> fulfilling task, requiring<br />
Foster puppies Nick <strong>and</strong> Drew complete their last<br />
health check at 8-weeks-<strong>ol</strong>d.<br />
time, education <strong>and</strong> commitment.<br />
Animals may transition through three<br />
different sets of homes <strong>and</strong> foster<br />
parents during the first eight weeks of<br />
their life. First comes the Neonatal stage<br />
(0 days-2 weeks), which requires 24/7<br />
monitoring, weighing, bottle-feeding <strong>and</strong><br />
cleaning. During the Transitional stage<br />
(2-4 weeks <strong>ol</strong>d), animals require feeding<br />
<strong>and</strong> frequent monitoring by their fosterparents<br />
every 4-5 hours. By the time<br />
animals have reached the Socialization<br />
stage (4-8 weeks), they require 2-3<br />
feedings per day, plenty of attention,<br />
physical <strong>and</strong> mental stimulation<br />
<strong>and</strong> play time with people <strong>and</strong> their<br />
littermates.<br />
Each person who works or v<strong>ol</strong>unteers<br />
at the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong><br />
believes in second chances. While our<br />
Foster V<strong>ol</strong>unteers donate more than<br />
5,000 hours of service per month, there<br />
is always more that can be done. If<br />
you’re interested in becoming a Foster<br />
Parent, contact V<strong>ol</strong>unteer Services at<br />

Q: I want to make sure I keep up<br />
on the health of my animal between<br />
veterinary visits. How do I conduct a<br />
basic routine health exam at home?<br />
A: While there is no substitute for a<br />
professional veterinary examination to<br />
assess your pet’s health, there are some<br />
things that you can monitor at home. You<br />
can be alert to health concerns by being<br />
aware of what is normal for your pet,<br />
<strong>and</strong> observing when there are deviations<br />
from the norm. Below is a list of areas<br />
that can be evaluated by a pet owner at<br />
home.<br />
Activity levels: Activity levels can<br />
vary throughout the day due to a variety<br />
of factors. You probably know if your<br />
active dog is not quite as energetic, or<br />
if your calm kitty is agitated. These<br />
changes are often clues that your<br />
pet is not feeling well <strong>and</strong> are worth<br />
investigating.<br />
Attitude: When you call your dog,<br />
does he or she come running as usual?<br />
Or perhaps your usually independent<br />
pup is suddenly velcroed to your side?<br />
These subtle changes are ways your pet<br />
is communicating to you how it feels.<br />
Eyes: Older dogs <strong>and</strong> cats will<br />
occasionally have haziness to the eyes<br />
that may or may not be problematic.<br />
Squinting without exposure to bright<br />
lights, redness to eyelids or “whites” of<br />
the eyes, excessive tearing, or increased<br />
amounts of mucous in the eyes are all<br />
red-flags.<br />
Ears: Your pet should not cry out<br />
when you touch the ears. If you are able<br />
to look at the ears, inspect the ear flap –<br />
the skin should be soft <strong>and</strong> pliable. There<br />
should be no odor, discharge, “dirt,”<br />
“wax” or dark granular material in the<br />
ears.<br />
Heart <strong>and</strong> lungs: Is your cat or dog<br />
able to sustain an activity or do they<br />
limit their activity <strong>and</strong> need to take a<br />
rest? Dogs pant often <strong>and</strong> it is considered<br />
normal, however, this is not normal in<br />
cats. How fast or slow the pet breaths<br />
can give clues as to how healthy the<br />
heart <strong>and</strong> lungs are. It is very helpful<br />
to know what your pet’s normal resting<br />
heart <strong>and</strong> respiratory rate are. To do this,<br />
wait until your pet is resting comfortably.<br />
Count each time your pet takes a breath<br />
for 15 seconds, then multiply by 4. This<br />
will give you the number of breaths per<br />
minute. You can count your dog or cats<br />
heart rate in a similar manner. It is<br />
easiest to feel the heartbeat along the<br />
bottom part of the chest, just behind the<br />
front legs.<br />
Skin: Check for changes in fur c<strong>ol</strong>or<br />
or quality <strong>and</strong> any spots of missing hair.<br />
Run your h<strong>and</strong> through the fur checking<br />
for mats, burrs, foxtails, or sores of<br />
any kind. Part the hair <strong>and</strong> look at the<br />
skin for redness, sores, hair loss, dark<br />
granular debris (flea dirt) or live fleas.<br />
Another good to<strong>ol</strong> is to run you h<strong>and</strong>s<br />
over every part of your pet periodically.<br />
<strong>No</strong>te any changes – are there any lumps,<br />
bumps or swellings that were not there<br />
before?<br />
Muscles, joints <strong>and</strong> nerves: Watch<br />
for limping, swelling, or asymmetry to<br />
the limbs. Check your pet’s body fat. An<br />
ideal body condition is usually described<br />
as “being able to feel the ribs, but not<br />
able to see the ribs.” You can also weigh<br />
your pet regularly, with every 2-4 weeks<br />
being a good time interval. Keep a log of<br />
weights <strong>and</strong> watch trends over time.<br />
Reproductive: Check for swelling,<br />
discharge or foul odors. <strong>No</strong>ne of these are<br />
considered normal.<br />
Abdomen: This area is normally soft<br />
<strong>and</strong> non-painful to the touch. Grunting,<br />
reluctance to walk, assuming a “praying”<br />
posture with the front legs extended <strong>and</strong><br />
the rear end elevated could be signs of<br />
pain or discomfort. More obvious signs<br />
of tummy problems are poor appetite,<br />
refusing to eat, <strong>and</strong> diarrhea.<br />
Urination <strong>and</strong> defecation: Is there<br />
any straining or pain evident when your<br />
pet tries to urinate or defecate? Are the<br />
sto<strong>ol</strong>s normal in size, c<strong>ol</strong>or, shape <strong>and</strong><br />
consistency? Are the v<strong>ol</strong>umes of urine<br />
being passed consistent (especially<br />
important for male cats)?<br />
<strong>No</strong>ting changes in these areas does<br />
not give you enough information to<br />
diagnosis your pet, but it can go a long<br />
way to helping you determine when you<br />
need to seek veterinary advice.<br />

s Furry Felines Find “Furrific” Families!<br />
s Madison…New Year, New Home<br />
s <strong>No</strong>t Your Run of the Mill Piggies!<br />
s ‘Tis the Season to Socialize!<br />
We are thrilled at the many successful adoptions that<br />
took place during the recent two-month long cat adoption<br />
campaign this past <strong>No</strong>vember <strong>and</strong> December. Many long<br />
time residents <strong>and</strong> frisky young kittens found loving homes<br />
to call their own. If you are one of those homes, we thank<br />
you <strong>and</strong> we hope you are enjoying your new feline family<br />
member. Cats provide us with love <strong>and</strong> entertainment that<br />
is unique to each <strong>and</strong> every one of them. Here is an update<br />
about some friendly felines who found a family to share in<br />
that love…<br />
Poppy: “When Barbara <strong>and</strong> I brought her home, we<br />
loved her so much! She likes to play in boxes!”<br />
Sammy: “Adopting Sammy was life-changing. She adds<br />
so much joy to my life <strong>and</strong> is such a great companion. We<br />
are taking the class “Living Happily Ever After with Your<br />
Cat” at the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong> <strong>and</strong> both of us are<br />
learning so much! Next we will be taking “Clicker Training<br />
for Cats.”<br />
Pearl: “My daughter saw Pearl on your website <strong>and</strong><br />
brought me to meet her. We fell in love at first sight. I was<br />
so impressed by the level of medical care she was provided<br />
at the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong>. My husb<strong>and</strong> is currently<br />
in a care facility <strong>and</strong> looks at Pearl’s picture every day. He<br />
can’t wait to come home soon <strong>and</strong> meet our newest family<br />
member!”<br />
Madison knows that patience is a virtue! 388…<br />
that is how many days it took for Madison to meet the<br />
family of her dreams. After more than a year at the<br />
<strong>No</strong>rth Campus, she of course became a staff favorite.<br />
After many months at our <strong>No</strong>rth Campus, she made<br />
her way to the PetSmart Adoption Center in Oceanside<br />
where she could show off her true beauty to the many<br />
customers who shop there daily. Her new family has<br />
this to say, “Madison has adjusted beautifully to her new<br />
home from the moment she hopped out of her carrier.<br />
She is very sweet <strong>and</strong> affectionate <strong>and</strong> the most playful<br />
kitty we’ve ever had. We just adore her!”<br />
541 cats<br />
were placed into loving homes during the<br />
<strong>No</strong>v.-Dec. 2010 <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong><br />
<strong>and</strong> <strong>SPCA</strong> cat adoption campaign<br />

Our Pet-Assisted Therapy guinea pigs love to be<br />
pampered! Every month they are scheduled for the<br />
Guinea Pig Wash ‘n’ Dry, treating them to a day of nail<br />
trimming, shampoo, <strong>and</strong> a blow dry. These little guys are<br />
the superstars of the P-AT program, so they better look<br />
the part. Visiting around 50 organizations each month,<br />
they must always look their best.<br />
Our four-legged special guests put on their h<strong>ol</strong>iday best<br />
<strong>and</strong> were escorted by their two-legged companions to an<br />
evening of h<strong>ol</strong>iday celebration <strong>and</strong> v<strong>ol</strong>unteer appreciation<br />
at our V<strong>ol</strong>unteer Appreciation <strong>and</strong> H<strong>ol</strong>iday Doggie Café.<br />
Party guests were entertained by music from Forecast,<br />

“My Furry Valentine” Finds Homes for 253 Animals… <strong>and</strong> Still Counting!<br />
An Unexpected Circle of Life<br />
There are plenty of things to love about<br />
animals: the way they live in the present<br />
moment with abs<strong>ol</strong>ute joy, their ability<br />
to kiss your tears or calm your fears, or their<br />
resilience <strong>and</strong> loyalty. The delight they find<br />
in the littlest things–a sock, something that<br />
squeaks, a good belly rub.<br />
But what we probably love most about our<br />
furry friends, we can’t name or see.<br />
It’s something we feel…this readiness <strong>and</strong><br />
unlimited capacity to love. Even if they are shy<br />
or if they have been lost, abused or ab<strong>and</strong>oned…<br />
you can see it their eyes. At <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Humane</strong><br />
<strong>Society</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>SPCA</strong> there is so much love in the<br />
eyes of every animal, of all shapes, personalities,<br />
<strong>and</strong> sizes, looking for somebody to share their<br />
heart with.<br />
As of press time, a total of 253 animals found<br />
new families <strong>and</strong> homes during our first ever<br />
“My Furry Valentine” adoption promotion, which<br />
celebrated the human-animal bond with a reduced<br />
adoption fee of $14 from January 4 – February<br />
14, <strong>2011</strong>. We’d like to thank our community for<br />
making this adoption campaign so special.<br />
At <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong> <strong>and</strong><br />
<strong>SPCA</strong> there is so much love in the<br />
eyes of every animal, of all shapes,<br />
personalities, <strong>and</strong> sizes, looking for<br />
somebody to share their heart with.<br />
M<strong>ol</strong>ly <strong>and</strong> Barkley were just two of the many<br />
animals who found love after many months in<br />
our care, waiting a new home in our Adoption<br />
Gallery. It had been a long road for this bonded<br />
pair, who couldn’t even bare to be separated when<br />
one was undergoing medical treatment. Their<br />
first visit with the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong><br />
began in September 2008, when their owner was<br />
having medical issues. M<strong>ol</strong>ly <strong>and</strong> Barkley were<br />
Rich <strong>and</strong> Ann Whitley shop at the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>SPCA</strong>’s retail store,<br />
Muttique, before bringing M<strong>ol</strong>ly <strong>and</strong> Barkley, their newest family members, home.<br />
adopted out 3 months later, only to be returned in April 2010 due to<br />
Barkley’s many health issues. After nine more months of medical<br />
treatment, tender care <strong>and</strong> lots of love from the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Humane</strong><br />
<strong>Society</strong> staff <strong>and</strong> v<strong>ol</strong>unteers, M<strong>ol</strong>ly <strong>and</strong> Barkley finally found a new<br />
family to cherish! During our “My Furry Valentine” promotion, the<br />
Whitley Family of Ramona, CA fell in love with M<strong>ol</strong>ly <strong>and</strong> Barkley<br />
<strong>and</strong> welcomed them as true members of the family. Today, they are<br />
doing great <strong>and</strong> couldn’t be happier.<br />
EDITOR’S NOTE: Special<br />
adoption promotions such as “My<br />
Furry Valentine” provide the extra<br />
media attention <strong>and</strong> incentive for<br />
potential adopters to find new furry<br />
companions. Although the promotion<br />
includes a reduced adoption fee, the<br />
screening <strong>and</strong> qualification process<br />
is still f<strong>ol</strong>lowed to help find the<br />
perfect match for the animals in our<br />
care. We look forward to more happy<br />
adoption stories as the Valentine’s<br />
Day promotion comes to a close.<br />
True love has a funny way of happening<br />
when you least expect it. Such was the<br />
case when Scott Brummitt met his new<br />
best friend at the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong> <strong>and</strong><br />
<strong>SPCA</strong> 11 years ago.<br />
Scott had visited the <strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong> intending<br />
to adopt a kitten, but an adult cat by the name of<br />
Peter had other plans for him. From the moment<br />
Peter bounded happily into his arms <strong>and</strong> started<br />
up a chorus of purrs, Scott knew that he would be<br />
the perfect companion. Right from the start, they enjoyed a deep bond that only<br />
grew stronger with time.<br />
Sadly, well into his g<strong>ol</strong>den years, Peter passed away this winter. Just a day<br />
after his passing, a storm r<strong>ol</strong>led in <strong>and</strong> lightning downed three large trees near<br />
Peter’s memorial garden that Scott had carefully constructed in the yard. And<br />
just like that, another wonderful opportunity presented itself where it was least<br />
expected. As Scott chopped up the<br />
eucalyptus trees for firewood, an<br />
idea dawned on him: the wood could<br />
be s<strong>ol</strong>d <strong>and</strong> the money donated to<br />
the <strong>San</strong> <strong>Diego</strong> <strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong> in<br />
Peter’s name.<br />
To show his heartfelt<br />
appreciation for the <strong>Humane</strong><br />
<strong>Society</strong>’s work, Scott s<strong>ol</strong>d boxes of<br />
kindling for $5 each <strong>and</strong> shared<br />
Peter’s story along the way. Before<br />
he knew it, over $600 was raised!<br />
Thanks to Scott’s resourceful<br />
fundraising approach in honor of his best friend Peter, many more companion<br />
animals will benefit from the <strong>Humane</strong> <strong>Society</strong>’s vital programs <strong>and</strong> services.<br />
