Yesterday, my good friend and wonderful shelter volunteer Alice Fisher did us all a great service. She appeared on KSVY, as a guest of radio host "El Guapo," to tell the Spanish-speaking listeners about the services we offer here at Pets Lifeline. ¡Muy bien! ¡Gracias!
My Spanish is a bit rusty but I know that for many members of the Sonoma Valley community it is a first or a favorite language. So we are working to make Pets Lifeline more user-friendly for Spanish speakers. We now have a few handouts available on our web site that address common pet issues en Español. You can find them here. We also have the Google translation tool available on the site and on this blog. I know, I know...automatic translators are far from perfect but we still hope it might make it easier for some people in our community to find help or answers when they need it.
And if you want to help me in my quest to be the best official greeter ever at the Pets Lifeline Shelter, and you are bilingual, consider joining us as a volunteer. And if you are not bilingual, no worries. We need you too! Go online and sign up to join our team.

We're Number One!
In the Animal Category, that is. Our beautiful pink cat float won first prize in the animal category for the City of Sonoma's 4th of July Parade! Ooo-la-la, isn't she a beauty?
Thanks to everyone that came out to wave and cheer us on!

Cats on Parade!
I was really sad to miss the 4th of July parade last year, so this year I am twice as excited! I hope everyone in town comes on out for the 4th of July festivities tomorrow. We've got a colorful, fun display for Pets Lifeline this year that is sure to be a crowd-pleaser!
Our float and booth will be a celebration of the wonderful animal companions in our lives and in our community. The float includes a colorful surprise that sure made me say "meeeeeowwwW."
We hope to see you there!
