WE’RE ALL DUNROAMIN’

OMEN It may be that Dr Monteith and I have come up with a new treatment modality. At least it seems to have worked for us this time. A few more clinical trials should give us more information on its effectiveness.   I guess I should start at the...

Kitty Rescue Operation

Perth-Andover… The elusive Park Street Vagabond Kitty has been safely live trapped and is receiving medical attention from the wonderful people at DunRoamin”  . This black & white cat was abandoned by its owner about five years ago. It took to the streets and became semi-feral.   People in...

WE’RE ALL DUNROAMIN’

Sometimes we get so tired of the reasons that people give for wanting to abandon a perfect little loving animal. A mature, caring personality would not stoop to such behaviour. A thinking person would not expect a pup to raise itself in the ways of humans, and expect that...

WE’RE ALL DUNROAMIN’

(www.bekindtogodscreatures.com)   I-LEAN Well, surprisingly, I have a new favourite cat! I don’t take this admission lightly, but this little stray has inspired my admiration, as others have, with her strong will to live, her strength under adversity and her trust and acceptance of us – her proud caretakers...

Big Tig’s Shelter Story

Hi! Big Tig again….I wanted to tell you guys about a cat that lives with us. Her name is Marble. She makes us kittens call her ‘Miss Marble’, and she is always telling us to stop bothering her. Angie says it is because she is an older cat, and...

Pet Tails

have always wondered why people get pets just to leave them outside. Even those that are properly fed and housed miss so much by not getting attention from the humans that have taken on the responsibility of caring for them. Not only do the poor animals miss out but...
