It’s a perfect gift that will save lives and celebrate a special loved one. Dedicate a brick or paver to your pet — order yours today! Are You Prepared for Summer Travel? Summer is here, and for many of us that means traveling to visit family or enjoying a favorite vacation spot. Travel preparation can include arranging for a neighbor to check on your house or dropping off your pets at their favorite pet sitter. Another preparation that’s just as important but often overlooked is making sure documents such as your will and durable power of attorney are updated and easily accessible, should they be needed. If you want to include a legacy gift to support the animals at Seattle Humane in your updated will, here’s sample language to help you and your attorney draw up a bequest that meets your needs. To learn more about how your gift will be put to use, contact Scott Fraser, Esq., Seattle Humane’s Major and Planned Giving Director, at (425) 373-5387 or scott@seattlehumane.org. Pet Spotlight: Macready Macready is a 10-year-old senior gentleman who loves food and a good chin scratch. In fact, he really enjoys being pampered with pets while he's eating. Like a typical cat, Macready loves sitting in boxes and scratching posts. He previously lived in foster care, where he lived with a resident cat. His foster parents shared that once he trusts you, he'll roll over and purr while you give him pets. On a serious note, the reason we think he might still be here is that he tends to communicate by hissing, but he doesn't show aggression. Just like with some people, Macready is usually curious yet cautious of new people. He wants to trust humans and other pets, but it just takes a little extra time with him. If you're looking for a confident, cool cat who knows what he wants, then Macready is your guy! He just needs a patient adopter who can make sure he has a comfortable transition. To learn more about Macready, contact our adoption team by emailing adoption@seattlehumane.org or calling (425) 649-7563.
