Problem with abandoned pets
I am writing to you in hopes of helping two abandoned animals in my neighborhood. The family that left the animals lost their home to foreclosure. I have been taking care of their basic needs such as food, water and spending about an hour each day with them so that they have human contact, however each day I can see in their eyes they are growing weary and must wonder where their owners are.
I have spoken with Washington County animal control a few times and they have left notices on the front door, but as of 6-11-09 nothing has happened. Personally, I do not wish them to go to a county shelter, I understand they will be given only five days to be adopted or they may be euthanized. These precious pets are victims. I know they are not aggressive in any way, and are very starved for companionship.
I am hoping to find someone who will adopt them together. They are almost identical in size and color and I believe they are littermates and have always been together. I would not want to separate them at this point in time, they seem to depend on each other very much.
I hope you will publish this and make people aware. I would like to know if Washington County has a no-kill shelter facility. I am not aware of any. Please help these and maybe many more abandoned and helpless animals. Please contact me at 850-773-5777
