Please don’t forget about the Hurricane Sandy Pets, they need our help!
October 29, 2012
At the time of a disaster or emergency, we are empathetic, shocked, concerned and glad that it wasn’t us or someone we knew. That’s not selfish, it’s just human nature. But what is sad is when horrible situations take weeks and months to repair or attempt to return to normal and in that time we seemed to have moved on with our lives and forget what got our attention such a short time ago. Please allow FurEver Animal Rescue to refresh your memory and show you some beautiful creatures that are causalities of Hurricane Sandy. These cherished pets have either lost their family, their family still have no housing or have been surrendered because the family was relocated and could not take their pet. Emergency shelters can only operate for a specific period of time under FEMA guidelines and then their service is no longer needed. Those beautiful creatures have lived in crates 23 hours out of 24 since October 29th. The wonderful staff at these emergency shelters try their best to find that extra time to give an extra walk, a little more play throwing a ball or a few more belly rubs but it is not like having a real home with a family who loves you. When the shelter doors close any pets remaining will be turned over to local animal authorities and with them already at capacity, the fate of the newcomers is dim. They have survived hurricane force winds that devastated the east coast, flooding, rains, snow, no electricity and whatever life could throw their way. They deserve a bright future, a second chance to find happiness and to have a FurEver new family to love for a life time. We are looking for people who would like to foster to adopt. This means you start out as a foster with the intent to finalize an adoption at a later date when you are sure it is a good fit for you, your family and our precious pets. If you’re not looking to adopt but can foster, knowing that these pets can be with you for several weeks or months until the right family comes along, we can really use your help. Each pet needs a home to go to when they arrive. Perhaps if you can’t foster, you can donate toward their food cost, air fare and other expenses we will incur. No donation is too small - we will put it to work to help our Hurricane Sandy furkids. Donations can be made on line through PayPal. Your donations are tax deductible and greatly appreciated.

I’m Not A Skunk!

Wrinkles Never Looked Better
Kaylee is Shar Pei Lab mix and like most women, very secretive about her age (we aren’t sure how old she is and she’s not giving us any hints). Kaylee’s sweet gentle personality speaks volumes about what a wonderful member of a family she’d be. One of Kaylee’s favorite pastimes is to toss her toys up into the air! Other dogs are great playmates but cats are viewed as a squeaky boy so Kaylee needs a home with no kitties, please!

Travels With Farley

In return, he will give you more joy than you ever knew possible.

Who Gave Me This Silly Name?
Meatball! Who would name a dog meatball? Well, this adorable 3-year old brindle American Staffordshire terrier got this name so we’re going to run with it! Meatball is very sweet but seems to think he’s an 8 week old puppy! He’s very smart and would be an excellent candidate for a training class so that he can show off how smart he is! Oh…did we mention he’s 83 lbs. Hmmm…wait a minute…Meatball…83 lbs. Now it all makes sense! Everyone needs a Meatball in their life – now’s your chance!

What Could Be More Precious?
You can probably guess how this little girl got her name. Precious is an 8-year old brindle Pit mix.

She’s a great listener and will give you her undivided attention if you need to talk. Then she’ll cuddle up with you to help remind you about what’s really important in life! Sometimes in this fast paced life, we need that kind of reminder – Precious will do that for you!
