Dear Catz Jazz Friends,
Some remarkable animals come through our doors, and into our hearts. The volunteers that work with Catz Jazz Rescue spend lots of time rehabilitating, fostering, bottle-feeding, raising medical funding and caring for the rescues that come in, and subsequently, we get attached to them.
When we see an animal that we've rescued get placed into a forever home, it can be bittersweet for us. In most cases, we have taken an animal from near death or other cruelty and have saved its life and that creates a special bond and impact on us, making it difficult to see each rescue go, but we remain realists, because it is our strong belief that they all deserve homes so they can have the wonderful life they should have had all along.
We do become attached, but when we place a rescue into their (hopefully) forever home, we are also delighted to be able to save another animal's life.
In short, we do this for the love of rescuing, and for the joy in making a difference.
One of the best things about volunteering to be the Catz Jazz Webmaster is hearing about the wonderful impact our animals have had on the lives of their adoptive families.
We are lucky enough to receive a number of cards, letters, photos and emails from adopters and Catz Jazz staff and volunteers sincerely enjoy hearing from adopters and discovering how our rescues are doing in their new homes.
It means so much to us to hear from adopters keeping in touch with us to help remind us why we do what we do and just know that our previous babies are doing alright.
If you adopted a pet from Catz Jazz Rescue and want to see your pet's story and pictures added to our Home Sweet Home page, please send it to us!
I am working on a brand new format for the Home Sweet Home section where every single success story sent to us will have their very own page so adopters can show off their rescued pets and where you can see what others have posted, too, and I really look forward to receiving an update from those we haven't heard from; have you sent us yours?
Please send us your pet's story (it can be anything from a few sentences or short paragraphs to a detailed letter and I will also scan in yours cards, postcards and pics if you do not have digital photos), along with as many photos of your pet enjoying their new life.
I will review your story and photos and publish them in the new Home Sweet Home section that will be implemented into the website soon and will be dedicated to the Success Stories of some of our rescues after they found their way into forever homes.
We believe all of our adopted rescues are success stories and would really love to hear from you!
Thank you so much,
Sydney Colvin-Gibbs
Webmaster/Volunteer Coordinator
