About Cookie

***URGENT Foster/Adopter Needed for Cookie ASAP!!!*** Our rescue just saved Cookie from euthanasia at the last minute, at an overcrowded high kill shelter in TX. We don't know too much about this gorgeous sweetheart. We think she is about 2.5-3yrs old. She does seem to be ok with cats! BUT she is very under weight, so we really need to find a foster or adoption home ASAP. She will be spayed and vaccinated before being adopted. NOTE: Cookie is in a boarding situation, but it still feels like a shelter to her. We need to find a foster or adopter ASAP, so she doesn't succumb to kennel stress. ********** Due to record numbers of owner surrendering pets to shelters, there aren't enough fosters, which means we have to find local boarding kennel space. And if that fails, we need to transport pets to foster homes in other states, or boarding kennels there if we run out of fosters. None of which are ideal but it is better than the alternative. Often now, the shelters are giving rescue groups a lot less than 24 hrs notice of the following day's euthanasia lists! Resulting in everyone scrambling to find fosters or even urgent fosters during that time. Shelters are overflowing in droves mainly due to owner surrenders and/or a general lack of spay/neutering in southern states. Healthy pets that owners, or their families, are surrendering to shelters, especially in southern states, are being euthanised in record numbers. Foster homes are overflowing as a result. If no fosters available, we have to look for space in local boarding kennels and when that fails, our only option is to get these precious innocent pets on transport to other states, either to fosters there, or final resort boarding kennels. And for these pups, boarding is not ideal. Our only hope is to get them into as many foster homes as we can, wherever, until we can get find their furever homes. So, if you or someone you know are interested in adopting Cookie. Please contact KENNEDY by email or text at (802)673-9026. [NOTE: Cookie is currently being boarded in the South. Transport will be scheduled for her to be brought to the Northeastern states for serious adopters only.]
