He never passed up our request to paint a watercolor of cats for TREATS' annual For Cats' Sake art auction to benefit felines. One year, Joe further enhanced his contribution to cats in need and taught a class filled with cat lovers how to paint a watercolor of their own favorite felines; and then he donated the enrollment fees to benefit cats. But Joe wasn't just a cat lover. He was easily recruited to judge TREATS' dog contests at Santa Paws Walk. You could hear him joke as he happily posed for pictures with the winning dogs as they were awarded their trophies. Joe sprinkled his impressive intellect generously with a wonderful sense of humor. He's a person who will really, really be missed. Her creativity, effervescent personality and ever-present smile added a special spark to any occasion. She was always our nurse at special events, but even more than that, she was continually scouting for ways to help animals through TREATS. We first saw Michele when she came to pick up her son Zach from Camp Bark-ly. He was so young; he rushed up to Michele and jumped up into her waiting arms. Years and years later, we last saw the mom-and-son team with Zach towering over his petite mom and helping her load items she had collected for a TREATS fundraiser. She never ever missed an opportunity to help animals. TREATS Continues Kitty Quilt Program TREATS has provided 225 kitty quilts to the TLC Animal Service Center, and is offering cat lovers a chance to help make some kitty quilts, too! "Quilts are like friends, a great source of warmth and comfort." That "comfort" is just what we were after for Tallahassee's homeless cats! TREATS presented 225 custom made quilts to the animal shelter to cover the bottom of their cold stainless steel cat kennels. The quilts were a warm and colorful addition to the kennels that many cats call home each year. A more comfortable and relaxed cat will do much better in what can be a stressful environment. Less stress means healthier and more adoptable cats! Of course, in addition to the quilts TREATS has provided, we are inviting cat lovers in the community to help as well. If you are a quilter who would like to make a real difference for a homeless cat, we would love to have you join us; learn how now. Not a quilter? No problem! A $25 donation to TREATS will cover the cost of a new quilt. Just note
"kitty quilt" on your donation. TREATS would like to thank the following generous people for making quilt donations: TREATS would also like to thank Filomena Jack of Quilts and Such in New Jersey for working with us on this important project. Filomena and her staff have worked enthusiastically to make these custom quilts to our exact specifications. We appreciate your hard work and talent! TREATS purchased 10 Kuranda dog beds for the Animal Service Center. These durable, raised, and chew-proof beds provide relief from the concrete floor for dogs.
