Here are two examples in (a) a still photo and (b) an animated .gif (like a very short video which repeats itself) of rescue cats who are desperately keen to be adopted by the person they are in contact with. It is very sweet to see. I think the images tell us how keen …
I was unsurprised to learn that it costs $1.6 million to run The Cat House on the Kings but it is an extraordinarily large figure. It covers all the expenses such as food, maintenance, staffing, litter, veterinary expenses et cetera. They have seven veterinary technicians on the staff! Lynea, who owns the sanctuary, is …

I wrote about Mohammed Aljaleel on November 30 last year after his sanctuary, Ernesto’s House, had been bombed by Assad’s regime or the Russians.
