The shelter has been doing very well on our aluminium can recycle project but we can always use more. Bring your cans to the shelter any time.

Penelope
 

It is with deep regret that we report the passing of long time shelter mascot Penelope. A classic tortoiseshell with white boots and a bib, she was small enough to fit in the palm of your hand when she entered the old shelter more than sixteen years ago. She made the move to the current shelter in 1998 and immediately resumed her duties as official door greeter and kitten babysitter. Penelope was a long time favorite of school children and shelter volunteers, taking up her post on the back of an office chair where she could keep an eye on the front door but also be near should any one feel the need to scratch a cat. Bird watching and window sill sunning were two of her favorite past times. We measure the passing of years not by the pets we have owned but by the footprints they leave on our hearts. Penelope will be missed by many, but not forgotten.
