Our adopted darlings

Received March 8

Dear Linda Anderson,

On Valentine's Day we were shopping at the PetsMart at Yuma Palms when we saw a darling little kitten. His name was Charlie, and the note on the window said he was full of energy. He is a 5 1/2 months old Sealpoint Siamese. In the three weeks that he has been in our family he has taken over like he was born here. He is a delightful little terror. He has also learned to get along with our 17 year old Siamese male. We love him already, and couldn't even dream of being without him.

We are so happy that we were able to rescue him. He had been there for over a month when we found him. By the way, you might find this interesting. Our 17 year old male, named Handsome, was also adopted from the Humane Society in 1991, along with his sister who passed away about a month ago.

We have also adopted a beautiful long haired German Shepherd from the same place about 2 years ago. Another wonderful addition to our family.

We are firm believers in adopting and rescuing pets. We also have two Greyhounds that we adopted in Tucson from the Greyhound Adoption League. And we are avid supporters of the Humane Society.

Throughout our life, adopting and raising these wonderful creatures, we have never had one moment of regret. We have loved them one and all without exception. They have always been, and always will be, our family.

Thank you for all that you do. We know that your job is enormous and never-ending. We will continue to help support the Humane Society as long as we live. All that these animals need is someone to love them and they respond so quickly. Keep up the good work.

Thank you,
--
