Monday, June 22nd, 2009A special kind of animal shelter.
Thursday, June 18th, 2009We just made a trip to Home for Life to check up on our 22 towers & the cats. The over 125 cats that reside there are all doing wonderful.
Home for Life is a shelter that provides lifetime care for special needs dogs & cats who are unable to find a home. The animals here are not adoptable so the sanctuary is truly their home for life, and it is a beautiful one situated on 40 picturesque acres in Star Prairie WI!
Their mission: At Home For Life®, we believe that, through empathy, our lives become richer, and our appreciation for the value of other living things grows.
I encourage you to take a look at them at www.homeforlife.org
The Cat on the right is Stormy. He came to Home for Life after he was found running around a trailer park by a local shelter that was rescuing cats. After a vet check by Home for Life specialists, it was discovered that Stormy was blind and had suffered trauma to the skull, most likely from a kick or a smack with a bat or shovel. The specialist believed that Stormy suffered severe head trauma that resulted in retinal detachments and bleeding into his eyes with cataract formations.
Stormy now enjoys receiving attention from staff and also eagerly awaits his twice daily meals of canned food!
Quick Fact: California has the most cat owners! 17,237 residents own cats!
