Hello all,
I traveled to Israel last week and was appalled -- mortified -- at the number of stray cats and dogs I saw roaming the streets, jumping in and out of dumpsters, and seeking shelter in doorways and under cars. They were EVERYWHERE. I wanted to say thank you to all of you who take your time, energy, and finances to help strays. While I know there are organizations and individuals in Israel to spay, neuter, and feed these strays, the problem is so huge it would be like trying to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro. And to have prominent organizations working hard to help animals everywhere...how fortunate we are. My trip has opened my eyes to how important it is to join forces with others and with organizations to try to help. My summers spent volunteering at our local Humane Society will feel more meaningful on a broad, long-term scale.
Thanks for all you do in your communities for the welfare of animals!
