Fred & Linda Marshall visiting the shelter with Marilyn in 2012.

Like most of the world, we are still in a state of shock at recent events and trying our best to figure out things on a day-to-day basis. The governor of Jalisco ordered a state-wide “Stay at Home” mandate on March 21 along with restrictions on bars, restaurants, theaters and other places where crowds can gather. Schools have been closed for several weeks. Regardless, we still have to purchase and deliver supplies to the shelter each week! So far, there has been no shortage of kibble, litter and basic cleaning supplies at COSTCO. There is NO hand sanitizer, alcohol, Lysol spray or Clorox wipes anywhere.

The long hot summer is always difficult but this one is surely going to be one for the record books. We just want to keep our volunteers, our vet, the families that live at the shelter…….and of course all the kitties……safe and healthy!!! Many thanks to all of you for your continued support and hoping all of YOU also stay safe!

GOOD NEWS!! We do have SOME good news! A grant was received from Terri and Gray Levy to update and expand the little isolation bungalows to include a fourth and larger maternity bungalow. A donation from Fred Marshall to honor his late wife has allowed us to begin total renovation of the old Acclimation building and “Linda’s Welcome Casita” will soon be finished. We’ll have more on this story and photos to share of both by next month and we are thankful for these generous donors!
