Hmmm... I am sitting here in the dark. Anxiously awaiting the arrival of the various members of the staff. I have to whisper as not to disturb those who are still sleeping. I can hear some of the dogs and cats that have recently been brought to the center. It's scary for animals to be here in the beginning. They don't know what is happening, they don't realize, yet, the people here are going to help them. When pets first arrive they have to be 'quarantined'. This means they are in a separate room for 2 weeks to insure they are free of disease and have all their well and safety checks. This is not just to take care of them, but also to care for all the other animals already here at the facility as well. The public are not allowed to interact with these animals until they are moved into the other areas. This area also has limited staff interactions. I am glad to know the staff that care for these scared animals are so loving and talk to them and help them adjust to their temporary setting. The staff begin arriving around 7:30 am. I will check in and have Audine take some pictures so you can see how busy it is as they start their day cleaning all the crates and kennels. The day begins energetically as the dogs bark excitedly and the cats meow loudly when they see the other humans come in. One day, you should come around and see. By the way, how often do you clean out your pet's home?
