Sammy and Kasey's Page
I began volunteering with hope rescues and had no intentions of adopting dogs, because
I have five cats.  However, these dogs were so giving and loving I fell in love
with them.  I am a firm believer that you must have at least  two of whatever animal you
have so that they do not get lonely when you are away, so I didn't take just one dog, I took
two.  They are so wonderful together....chasing and playing.  I am so happy with my two
new family members and can't imagine now being without them.  I love them both so
much.  My parents even love them!....  Lisa

I am attaching some pics of Kasey with one of the kittens, they play and it is so
cute.  If you want, I can send more pics of Sammy and Kasey for the Happy
Homes page.  

Kasey loves to play in the pool and then run all over the place.  
Sammy likes to keep things from her.
They both play and chase each other.
Sammy and Kasey - adopted 5/30/2006 - Both of these adorable
dogs were part of our original rescue from last November.    Both
were adopted by one of our volunteers who we  love and
appreciate very much...

My Nine Lives

It wasn’t a plan to have nine cats, but that is what happens……
SMOKEY – 15 YR
Smokey showed up
about 15 years ago in
my driveway under the
car.  He is a lap
cat…for sure!
HEIDI – 6 YR
Heidi was a kitten
roaming around SIUE
campus.
RASCAL – 5 YRS
Rascal was
abandoned and was
crying for attention.
TOFFEE - ?? YRS
Toffee showed up at my
house with 1 inch in
diameter raw sores behind
his ears that he dug b/c he
had earmites.  He is all fur!
MOLLY - ?? YRS
Molley showed up at my
house.  She was pregnant and
gave birth to five kittens on my
carport about two weeks later.
I couldn’t find homes for all
fives kittens, so I kept three of
them. (Fella, Panda, and
Casper all 9 months)
PANDA
FELLA
CASPER

MAX - ?? YRS
This tom, started hanging around, naturally I fed him.  He is
the sweetest cat…he was/is pretty beat up from being a
stray tom.  He was scratching up his own ears due to ears
mites too.

I'm attaching a couple pics of my new kitty.   This cat is wonderful.  She is not even the
least bit scared.  She wasn't even scared in the car.   Her name is Dasher.  She doesn't
like the dogs too much, though.
