The Senior Companions Program ensures we can make the care
and permanent placement of senior pets a priority throughout our
organization.
Having funds available through this program enables staff to make
necessary and
important medical decisions regarding our senior animals, freeing up
precious
time and resources, while giving potential adopters peace of mind.
Senior Companions
ensures that those animals who are most in need of our help receive
the extra care that they need, and helps us
streamline processes that contribute to a shorter average
length-of-stay for
all adoptable pets with WHS, making room for more animals who
desperately need our help.

WHS is proud to be DC's open-door animal welfare
organization, and we accept all animals, regardless of breed, age or
condition.
We never put a time limit on an animal's stay, and treat every
pet as an
individual. Thanks to the support of our community and Pet Supplies
Plus, we are making a measurable
impact on the lives of senior pets.

A Volunteer Reflects
http://support.washhumane.org/site/R?i=LB_-Fb-uRaHfGdvEIjRBdQ

By: Mary Cook

Mary Cook.jpg
We've
all heard about the success of Washington Humane Society's Clear the

Shelter event, where 117 animals found new homes, but what is equally

remarkable to me is that the lives of over 117 people were
transformed,
as well.
http://support.washhumane.org/site/R?i=dC_vLsm6GHl6ZXZ1ue8Yjw

As
a volunteer at the New York Avenue adoption center, I have done
countless loads of laundry, led numerous tours of the facility, and
transported ferrets, cats, and bunnies (not all at once, thankfully!),

but the thing I enjoy most is meeting new people and helping them find

just the right cat or kitten (kittens?) to add to their family.
Naturally, I've met lots of great cats and kittens at the adoption
center, but I am always surprised that it's often the people that I
remember the most.

Hera.jpg
Featured Pet: Hera

http://support.washhumane.org/site/R?i=00Dq4RLHaKcS_luZCQnwMg


It is I, Hera - strong, powerful, and majestic. The REAL goddess Hera
was renowned in Greek mythology for her incomparable beauty and poise,
and though I may not completely measure up, I have definitely
eavesdropped on a few conversations where the staff members here said
I am such a pretty girl with a silky-soft coat. Though I am named
after a motherly figure, I am still full of exuberant, youthful
energy, and I'm looking for a forever family that is equally as
energetic! I love to play - where some people think the world is their
oyster (what is an OYSTER?!), I just think the world is my playground.
My ideal home would be one that can give me plenty of physical
exercise and help me work on some of my puppy tendencies. Come join me
on my mythological quest to be the perfect pup, and adopt me from New
York Avenue today!

As a Hidden Gem, I get my very own volunteers who spend extra time
with me and work with me on basic training needs. That way, I'll be
extra ready to settle into my new home! And, because I've been here a
little bit longer than my friends, staff have had the opportunity to
get to know me really well, and they will gladly answer any questions
you may have about me.

As an extra "thank you" for considering taking me home, my adoption
fee has been waived*!
