Lending a paw to the effort were many of our animal welfare partners located across the Northwest.  A few days later another rescue flight arrived with cats who were displaced by the flooding in Nebraska. More than 100 cats were flown in from the Nebraska Humane Society to Seattle Humane and other area shelters. Happily, many of the cats have already found homes. See more of the Arizona rescue effort here. Thrill-Seekers Wanted We are looking for thrill-seekers to go “Over the Edge” for animals in need.

May Pet Spotlight: Meet Susie! Susie, a 13-year-old Australian Cattle Dog, came to us when her human passed away. She loves to walk and play fetch, both great bonding exercises. Due to her handling sensitivities, Susie needs to live in an adult-only home with an experienced adopter. Susie's foster mom says she is very loving and sweet once she warms up to you. Do you have the patience and love to help Susie find a home? She’s in our Foster-to-Adopt program. Call 425-649-7563 today to set up a meeting.
