A big thank-you to Connor D'Allesandro

A mother and her children came into the shelter recently. Connor D’Allesandro, mom's 8 year old son, celebrated his birthday in a different way this year. To benefit the cats and kittens at the Pet Refuge, Connor decided to collect lots of pet toys, canned food, dry cat food and kitten chow, cat litter, paper plates and more.



And if that wasn't enough, Connor also collected $175, which he also donated to our shelter. This would be quite an accomplishment for anyone but for a young man to show such kindness towards animals and to do such a charitable thing for them - well, words cannot adequately express. It must also be noted that Connor's sister did this very same thing for her own birthday. What a wonderful family this is. Connor - thank you so very much.




Calling all comedic cats!
Is your kitty the clown of your home? Then enter him or her into Petfinder's Funniest Cat Contest! One funny cat can help the Pet Refuge win a $4,500 donation, as well as a $250 gift card to Petco for yourself.

Upload a photo or video of your pet and describe why he or she is the funniest. Funny cats can enter the contest now until May 21, 2013. You can select the Pet Refuge to receive the donation if you win while submitting your story. The voting period will start on May 22 and visitors can vote once a day for animals throughout the contest, with the voting period ending June 22, 2013.

The funny cat with the most votes will win a $250 gift card and a $4,500 donation in their name to the designated organization -- hopefully the Pet Refuge! Visit The Funniest Cat Contest to enter and see the contenders.
