OCTOBER VOLUNTEER OF THE MONTH

Ms./Mr. Social Butterfly

*IN SEARCH OF*

CHEDDAR

Cheddar is looking for Ms/Mr Social Butterfly that would like to help out at events and is an Outstanding Ambassador for TCRAS to all our new friends in El Paso County. Is this you? Do you know someone who fits this description. We are looking for volunteers who enjoy helping at events and are enthusiastic about our mission! Cheddar would do it, but he gets distracted by cheese :-)

Volunteer of the Month Pet Pick

Breanna came to us with several of her friends that were rescued from a hoarding situation. We were fortunate to care for her as she was ready to deliver puppies. All her babies have found homes. Breanna and her friends would like to find a warm and loving home that will take time to understand that they came from a less then ideal situation.

Sta y in the know! Follow us on Twitter @tcras and like us on Facebook!

Thank you for being a part of this great organization we call TCRAS and caring for all the pets that find themselves at our door. There are many ways you can be involved including volunteering, helping at events, donating money and wish list items - all help keep the shelter going. See you at TCRAS soon!
