Once again, you all pulled through! THANK YOU to everyone who sponsored a shelter animal from our GIVING TREE this holiday season and sent donations, gifts or supplies to the shelter! All the animals were spoiled and are happy! ❤️ They are all hoping to be in their forever home by next Giving Tree season when their tags can be permanently pulled from the tree. 🙏🏻

Meet Kiara! This pretty Siamese-mix girl is still waiting for her forever home! She is estimated to be a young adult, is super sweet and gentle, and gets along well with other polite cats. And then there are those eyes…..

As per ASL tradition, the last of our giving tree tags are posted below. 🌲 Just to remind everyone, the ASL Giving Tree is an artificial tree that stands in the center of the shelter where we hang a tag with a photo of each animal currently residing in the ASL shelter. Visitors pull the tag off the tree of the shelter animal they wish to sponsor this holiday season. Your sponsorship can be in the form of a gift (toys, wet food, bed, shelter item, etc.) or a financial donation. These are the tags left after our recent open house.

We have more animals currently living in our shelter than normal this time of year, so please help us get all of the ASL animals sponsored! We can’t leave any tag behind! They all deserve a special holiday gift!

Under the photo of the animal you wish to sponsor, add a comment and write, “SPONSORED.” Only the photos without this comment are the animals still waiting for sponsorship. We can do it!

Labeled gifts can be left at the ASL shelter (10 Dubelbeiss Lane 14622) in the rear of the shelter in the brown donation box. Use the unlocked gate entrance anytime! To financially sponsor an animal, visit our website at www.animalserviceleagueny.org. Click on the ‘Donate’ button. You may also mail a check.

Gifts can be accepted through January 15.

Can you help a shelter kitty this holiday season? ❤️

How do you know you have the most dedicated, loyal, detail-oriented and hard working shelter volunteers?

Answer: They organize the towels in the laundry room, that the staff uses to dry cleaned litter pans with, by color and size. That’s how! 😂😂😂

Pro Tip: Purple colored towels just dry better. 😉

Griselda! We transferred Griselda in from another local shelter. Griselda was diagnosed with malignant mammary gland tumors, which were removed prior to her intake. Griselda is currently recovering from her second mastectomy surgery to completely remove both of her mammary gland chains. This is the recommended procedure for cats with mammary gland cancer, to potentially extend their life by up to three years. It is an expensive and major 2-part surgery. Griselda has done well for both and is a true champ! 💪🏻Recent tests showed that her margins are clear, meaning the cancer has not spread anywhere else. 🥳 Griselda is the sweetest little girl and is now available for adoption! She would love to have a place to call home now after all she has been through. ❤️

Tomorrow is , a day of giving back to our local community. When you choose Animal Service League as your designated organization to donate to, you are helping to fund the care and vet expenses for cats like Griselda, who need extensive medical treatment before they are even ready for adoption.

We hope you will take advantage of this by choosing us, or any deserving organization close to your heart! Pay it forward. ❤️

(And in case we haven’t said it 1,000 times before, please spay and neuter your pets! Mammary gland cancer risk increases dramatically each year a female cat goes unspayed.)

Happy November! 🍂🍁 It’s our 2nd annual canned food Thanksgiving dinner donation drive! We have reached that special month where we look forward to a day of giving THANKS and having a tasty feast! 🍽️ Would you like to provide a tasty feast for a shelter cat this Thanksgiving? 🐈‍⬛

Our shelter turkey is missing some feathers, and we are in DESPERATE need of canned cat food. During the month of November, for every case of Friskies canned cat food we receive as a donation, our shelter turkey will receive a new feather. For every single can of food we receive, we will add a decorative leaf. Can we fan our turkey’s feathers and fill our shelter cat’s bellies by this Thanksgiving? We need your help! 🧡🧡🧡

🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾

🦃 All canned cat food donations may be left in the rear of our shelter in the brown donation deck box or shipped directly to us at 10 Dubelbeiss Lane, Rochester 14622.

🦃 As we receive donations, we will add the feathers and leaves to our turkey and post photos of the progress.

🦃 If you leave the name of the shelter cat(s) with/on your donation that you would like to feed on Thanksgiving, we will write that name on the feather or leaf.

🦃 On Thanksgiving day, we will post photos of the cats having their feast.

🦃 Friskies Pate canned cat food preferred. 😉

Layla has been FOUND and is home SAFE! ❤️❤️ Thank you to all of those caring people who reached out to help, shared her posting, helped post signs and had feet on the ground for 35+ hours straight searching for her. We are so grateful. 😉

Layla is a special dog and a huge part of ASL, so the past couple days have been tough. This incident was a hard hit for our rescue and our shelter, so we appreciate everyone’s support as we work through the aftermath.

Thank you again to our ASL family!

❤️

FOUND SAFE AND HOME!!! ❤️❤️❤️
***********************************

WE NEED YOUR HELP‼️ The car of an ASL representative was robbed and stolen from the private property of our shelter located on Dubelbeiss Lane near E. Ridge Road and Culver with 3 dogs inside. The dogs were thrown from the vehicle and two have been found in the area. Layla, pictured below, is STILL MISSING and was last seen on Culver across from the Walgreens. If ANYONE sees this dog please call 585 - 7two9 - 5913 immediately (please do not post sightings on here). Layla has one eye and is probably scared, cold and wet. Please do not try to call or catch her unless she approaches you first and lets you pet her. She will only run away if she thinks someone is trying to "get"her.

All appropriate agencies have been contacted and trapping is in the works. Please help get the word out by sharing this to your personal pages and to pages and groups that are NOT the normal lost and found pages. Thank you so much!
