I d like you to take another look at the dog on the cover of this issue of The Shaggy Sheet. (She s also with me in the photo above.) Her name is Lady Bug. Yes, she s extremely cute, but that s not why we chose her to be on the cover. You see, Lady Bug is a small miracle that friends like you made possible. And I m not exaggerating. Last January, she arrived at Peggy Adams just two days old and weighing only two ounces. As we prepare to celebrate Lady Bug s first birthday a day we feared she would not live to see please be sure to read her amazing story on page 13. Thanks to the support of so many caring people in our community, 2017 has been a year of hope for animals like Lady Bug and new beginnings for more than 5,000 dogs, cats, puppies and kittens who have been adopted into new, loving homes. It s also been a year of milestones. On page 9 you ll read how, since 2010, Peggy Adams has spayed or neutered 30,000 free-roaming, community cats through our Trap-Neuter-Vaccinate-Return (TNVR) program preventing hundreds of thousands of kittens from being born on the streets of Palm Beach County. And, of course, we faced the wrath of Hurricane Irma. While ensuring the care and safety of nearly 1,000 animals, you ll read on page 4 about the successful transport by air and by ground of 250 animals from Palm Beach County to partner shelters in the north and midwest. Thank you for all that you make possible and the lives you help save each and every day at Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League.

4 Hurricane Irma and Peggy Adams Before and after Hurricane Irma struck Florida, over the course of 11 days, Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League coordinated the evacuation of 250 dogs and cats out of Palm Beach County (from Peggy Adams and from Palm Beach County Animal Care and Control). On the Friday before the storm (September 8), with the help of the Humane Society of the United State (HSUS) and Wings of Rescue, 29 dogs were flown to shelters in Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana. Following the storm, three flights lined up by the ASPCA and Wings of Rescue (September 13, 14, 15) carried 184 dogs and cats to shelters in New York, Massachusetts and New Hampshire. Following that, on Monday, September 18, 37 more dogs and cats were transported to the Atlanta Humane Society. the expertise to help coordinate the transport of animals to shelters across the country. Like us, when Hurricane Harvey struck Texas, these organizations knew it would be shortsighted to send animals from Texas to Florida where they would again be at-risk of being affected by a hurricane. Instead, thousands of animals in Texas were evacuated to shelters in other All of these animals are now in the care of some of the best shelters in the country where they were placed for adoption to find their new, forever homes. We are very grateful for the generosity of our national emergency partner organizations that made these transports possible and for the shelters that welcomed these animals during their greatest time of need. This effort to transport animals out of our local shelters was critical to make room for animals lost and abandoned as a result of Hurricane Irma. parts of the country. The wisdom of this decision was clear as Irma approached and soon struck Florida. Today, we stand ready to accept as many animals as possible affected by Irma, to reunite lost pets with their families and to find new homes for those who were heartlessly abandoned. We are truly grateful for the many compassionate supporters who make our life-saving work possible each and every day. There is an overwhelming need to help lost, homeless and neglected animals right here in Palm Beach County at all times, notes Rich Anderson, Executive Director/CEO of Peggy Adams. When hurricanes hit, that need and the demand on our rescue efforts increase dramatically. We are fortunate to have partners like HSUS and ASPCA that have 4 Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League
5 Kids Corner After hearing about the devastating effects of Hurricane Irma on the animals of Florida, Bella, Emma and Sophie made the decision to help as best they could. These three sixth graders who live in Baltimore, Maryland quickly scheduled a sleepover where they baked for nearly six hours straight. They made (from scratch!) chocolate chip cookies, ginger snaps, snickerdoodles and chocolate/peanut butter cookies, as well as Rice Krispy treats and pretzel rods dipped in chocolate - both fully decorated with lots of sprinkles! The girls were thrilled with the results of the bake sale the next morning! They raised an incredible $600! Bella, Emma, and Sophie were proud to donate these funds to Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League and especially loved seeing the photos posted on our website, detailing all of the heroic efforts on behalf of the staff to help the animals. Thank you to ALL of our amazing young philanthropists for your generosity and compassion to Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League.

6 Launched in 2014, Countdown 2 Zero is a public-private partnership between Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League, Palm Beach County Animal Care and Control, and the Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners. Its goal is to ensure that all adoptable animals in Palm Beach County are being saved by the year Learn more at Countdown2Zero.org Saving Palm Beach County s Most At-Risk Animals As part of our Countdown 2 Zero efforts, Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League regularly transfers animals from Palm Beach County Animal Care and Control into our care. Thanks to the compassionate generous support from friends like you, 311 cats and 574 dogs have been saved through this program so far in 2017 (as of October 1st). Often, these are animals with medical problems that require the kind of special care the county-run shelter can t afford to provide. Animals transferred from the county shelter almost always have significant health problems. The cost to provide the necessary medical care and shelter for each of these animals is typically more than $1,000. That is more than double the average cost of other animals in our care. How are we doing? At Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League, we open our doors to every cat, dog, kitten and puppy that needs our help up to the maximum number for which we can provide quality care. At times, that number exceeds 1,000. These animals can be very ill or injured. Some arrive with severe behavior issues, Spotlight Pictured here are just two who got a second chance at Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League thanks to friends like you. including dangerous aggressive behavior. We work to save every life but, in some cases, that is not possible and we must make the difficult decision to humanely euthanize an animal with irreversible medical or behavioral issues affecting their quality of life. Thanks to our compassionate community and friends like you, Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League has achieved one of the highest rates for saving homeless pets in the United States (97% of all dogs and 82% of all cats). We collect and report our lifesaving data based on Florida Statute Section Transparency in Animal Shelter Act and you can find our reports at PeggyAdams.org. At Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League, we do not euthanize healthy animals; we do not euthanize due to lack of space; and there is also no time limit for how long a pet can remain in our care. Thanks to our supporters, our save rate for healthy cats and dogs is 100% and we are able to save most of the sick and injured animals that do arrive at our shelter. We save and re-home more animals than any other animal rescue organization in Palm Beach County, including more than 5,500 in the last year alone. Junior - Adopted July 22, 2017 Junior less than a year old was rushed to Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League with two severely broken legs. The bones were completely snapped in two. Emergency surgery saved his legs and his life. The League was able to cover the $3,500 medical cost of Junior s care through donations made to the League s Olivia s Fund. For more information about Olivia s Fund or to make a donation, please call Oliver On February 13th, Peggy Adams received an URGENT rescue request from Palm Beach County Animal Care and Control for a sweet, middle-aged, stray dog that likely got into a fight with another dog on the streets of Riviera Beach. He was so badly bitten on his head and around his legs that he needed immediate attention. Through Olivia s Fund, Oliver had surgery to repair his wounds and remove his left ear. This happy-go-lucky dog is currently available to adopt through our Dolly s Dream program. For more information about Oliver, please contact Adoptions@PeggyAdams.org or
7 273 Pets Found Forever Homes at Fourth Annual Countdown 2 Zero Adoption Event What a day! On Saturday, October 14th, at the Palm Beach County Convention Center, over 30 local animal shelters and organizations joined forces to find new, loving homes for hundreds of cats, kittens, dogs, puppies, rabbits and guinea pigs. Due to hurricane Irma, this event was postponed from September 9th. In just 7 hours, 273 animals were adopted during the Fourth Annual Countdown 2 Zero Adoption Event! Presented by The Lois Pope LIFE Foundation and the Petco Foundation, the annual event is organized and hosted by Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League and our partners at Palm Beach County Animal Care and Control. Thousands of people from all over Florida who came out to find their perfect furry match were met by approximately 1,000 of Palm Beach County s adoptable animals looking for their lifelong, loving homes. Peggy Adams and Animal Care and Control are proud to be the driving force behind this lifesaving event as part of the Countdown 2 Zero initiative the collaborative community effort to save the life of every adoptable animal in Palm Beach County.

8 Tips from the Trainer Working with an Under-Socialized Kitten Many kittens are born outside and have had minimal contact with humans. It is especially important for these kittens to receive lots of handling while they are still young so that they can be friendly, well-adjusted family pets. It is a lot of work the first week. Extra care and attention needs to be given to these kittens if they are to have any hope of becoming a well-adjusted pet feline. You must always be positive with your approach and fearless when handling them. with you. Repeat this exercise as often as you can, but ideally 15 times a day for 5-10 minutes each time for the first day or two. This has to be an intensive kitty boot camp, a crash course on how to trust the human that pets and feeds you. (Some people combine this with watching TV, reading, or other activities.) Feliway, a cat appeasing hormone, can be sprayed onto a soft towel. Gently stroking the kitten with the towel is also very effective. You can also spray it on your hands and let the cat sniff. They will usually be interested and will sometimes offer a head butt. In conjunction with the holding exercise, you should hand-feed the kitten. It should associate you with the food! Use high value wet cat food on a spoon and tasty treats to tempt it. Also, try play therapy if the kitten is over 4 weeks old. Get a cat-dancer or other interactive toy and engage the kitten s interest. (These toys should not be left with the kitten unsupervised.) Under-socialized kittens often hiss, sometimes spit and stomp, and sometimes swat and bite. The way to correct these behaviors is to be gentle yet firm, and totally unafraid of the kitten even when she looks ferocious. You must remain calm and able to hold the kitten without reacting fearfully or in anger. You must remain calm and relaxed. Approach the young cat sideways, gaze averted using soft blinking eyes and soft tones. Keep up your soft, firm approach. Offer food and the back of your hand to sniff. Direct staring is considered rude by cats so avert your gaze and then look back, soft and blinking eyes signals to the cat you mean no harm. Keep the kitten in a small confined space that it cannot hide in and where it can easily be caught. A cat carrier is ideal for the first few days. Wear thick gloves or use a small thick towel as a glove if you re worried the kitten might strike out. It is better to approach the kitten fearlessly with gloves than fearfully with bare hands! Use a soft towel to wrap them in. Talk to the kitten, and pet it gently with your free hand. Have the environment be calm and free of distractions, just for the first day, as the kitten learns to trust and bond The socialization process can take a day or two with really young kittens, but up to a week or more with older ones. As the kitten gets less frightened, which it s sure to do, you can start holding her/him with your bare hands, and releasing your hold more and more. You can also expand their space to a small room. Allowing them opportunity to play with the other kittens in the litter is good, as long as they do not regress during or after (hissing more, etc.). Introducing them to other people is an important step of the socialization process. Friends and family should be trained on how to handle the kittens. While this all sounds overwhelming, with a little bit of work, you can turn a hissy-kitty into a loving feline! 8 Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League
9 NEWS On October 6, 2017, Peggy Adams celebrated a milestone by providing services to our 30,000 th cat for TNVR! Peggy Adams launched its Trap-Neuter-Vaccinate- Return (TNVR) program in Since then, the League has spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and tipped the left ear of over 30,000 community cats. Of the cats receiving TNVR services, 16,182 were female cats. It is estimated that one female cat can produce 100 kittens in her lifetime. Had these female cats not been spayed, they could have produced as many as 1,618,200 kittens (that is just first generation). If 25% of the kittens survived to adulthood and half were female (202,275), the second generation total could have been as many as 20.2 million kittens.

11 Ask the Vet Holiday dangers for your pets Dr. Beth Keser Plants look lovely food tastes good and decorations add pizzazz but some of these things can be dangerous to your pets!!! It s the holiday season and some of your most treasured and common items in the house may pose a danger to your beloved pets. Plants such as lilies can be especially toxic to cats and cause kidney failure. Holly can cause significant irritation to the stomach & gastro-intestinal tract, resulting in extreme vomiting and diarrhea. Poinsettias and mistletoe are irritating to the mouth and stomach, sometimes causing vomiting, but generally over-rated in toxicity. Food, food, food we love our food during the holiday season, but not only can they be a danger to our waistline they can also be deadly to your pets. Chocolate and cocoa contain theobromine which can cause heart and respiratory failure. The darker the chocolate the higher level of toxicity. Sugarless gum contains xylitol which can cause low blood sugar, seizures, liver failure and even death. Fatty foods can cause pancreatitis and bones can splinter and cause cuts in the GI tract. Fruitcake can be very dangerous because it contains ingredients such as grapes, raisins, and currants all of which can cause kidney failure. Finally, as we decorate our homes, be careful with the following. Christmas trees water at the base of natural trees can contain anti-freeze and other preservatives that are deadly to dogs and cats. Snow globes, some are harmless and contain glycerin, but others contain ethylene glycol, which is very toxic to pets and people. Tinsel, popcorn strands, ribbons, lights and garland, if ingested, can become a foreign body or even cause the intestines to get tangled up and become a surgical emergency. Scented candles and potpourri can be attractive to pets and can become a fire hazard if played with. Electrical cords should be secured to the wall or covered on the floor so pets are not tempted to bite the cord and get electrocuted. Happy holidays! Just remember to be safe and responsible with your pets.

12 The Leadership Circle is made up of friends who have made generous fiveyear pledges to Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League (ranging from $1,000/year to as high as $100,000/year!). This is an incredible lifesaving opportunity starting at as little as $2.74/day or $83/month. We launched the Leadership Circle both to help meet the needs of animals rescued today and to build a foundation of secure support for animals coming our way in future years, explains Rich Anderson, Executive Director/CEO of the League.

Donors are allowed by Congress to make a tax-free gift to a qualified charitable organization from their IRA, known as the IRA charitable rollover. Donors age 70½ or older are eligible to move up to $100,000 from their IRAs directly to qualified charities without having to pay income taxes on the money. This law has been subject in the past to an expiration date, but as of December, 2015 that is no longer the case. Donors are free to make annual gifts to a qualified charitable organization from their IRA well into the future. Here are the details of the legislation: The donor must be 70½ or older on the day of the gift. The donor transfers up to $100,000 directly from the donor s IRA to one or more qualified charities. This opportunity applies only to IRAs and not other types of retirement plans. The donor pays no income taxes on the gift. The transfer generates neither taxable income nor a tax deduction, so the donor benefits even if the donor does not itemize tax deductions. The gift can satisfy all or part of the required minimum distribution for the year. The donor does not receive any goods or services in return for the rollover gift in order to qualify or tax-free treatment.
13 Never Give Up By Kristi Jackson, Chief Financial Officer, Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League PLEASE COME GET HER. That s the text message I received from our Shelter Manager at 5:30pm on Friday, January 14. A woman in Boynton Beach had found a puppy and brought her to Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League. I m a Peggy Adams employee but I m also an emergency foster care volunteer. And this was a true emergency situation. When I first saw this puppy, I was shocked. She was just 2 day old and weighed only 2 ounces about the weight of 2 AA batteries or 10 nickels. She couldn t see, hear, walk or eat. We weren t sure she would survive the night. She was so small and so weak I would need to feed her with a syringe. I remember my poor husband, sadly shaking his head and saying, I don t think she s going to make it, but we ll try. Needless to say, it was a LONG weekend. She needed to be fed every two hours around-the-clock. but she did. Our next hurdle was 6 months and you guessed it she made it. Lady Bug is now 10 months old and weighs 2 ½ pounds! She is a normal puppy, only tiny. She loves to play with her toys and loves people. She loves going to work at Peggy Adams and rides in the car like a champ. She is one of the happiest puppies I have ever seen! We re still not sure how long Lady Bug will be with us, but she shows no signs of any serious medical problems. She stands as a reminder to always give it a try because if we hadn t, we would have missed out on the joy she has brought us all. Thanks to the caring support of our community, Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League is able to give new hope to lost, abandoned and injured animals each and every day and save the lives of even the most fragile. Like Lady Bug. Interesting in learning more about fostering? Contact us at Foster@PeggyAdams.org To everyone s surprise, she made it through the weekend. Then she made it a week. Then she made it a month. At one month of age, with 24-hour care, the little one was still tiny but weighed 5 ounces and her eyes were open. She started to walk and she was totally adorable. We finally decided to name her Lady Bug because she was so small. We still weren t sure she would make it to 8 weeks, but she did. Our Director of Medical Services remained hopeful, but even she wasn t sure Lady Bug would make it to 4 months

Whatever your choice, we d like to invite you to join other individuals and couples who have chosen to become Forever Friends and to establish your own legacy in support of the animals. the Animals Transformational Gift Received from Forever Friend John Dee Craft John Dee Craft was an enthusiastic outdoorsman who loved nature, action and animals. Mr. Craft passed away August 19, 2017 leaving a gift of more than $2 million through his will to enhance the lives of the cats and dogs being cared for by Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League. Mr. Craft s family had launched a horse & buggy business more than 100 years ago in Noblesville, Indiana. For the last 22 years, he lived in Juno Beach where he pursued his passions for hunting, fishing, flying, boating and animals. The impact of a gift like this is transformational, notes Peggy Adam s Executive Director/CEO Rich Anderson. Previous major gifts like this have made an incredible difference for animals in our community. For example, in 1980, a gift from the estate of artist Jessie Chardin Stewart helped us purchase our current property. Anderson continues, In 2013, a trust established by the late Eunice Joyce Gardiner has been instrumental in allowing Peggy Adams to expand its medical team to six full-time veterinarians, to become the largest provider of free and low cost spay/neuter services in Palm Beach County, and to launch our 24-hour neonatal kitten nursery. These estate gifts have been critical to the growth of our programs that now benefit the lives of more than 50,000 animals each year. He concludes, We are incredibly grateful to Mr. Craft and humbled by his compassion for, and dedication to, animals in need.
