It's been nearly three months since Paris was found emaciated and very pregnant by a kind woman named Zee. Now, after recuperating from her ordeal, she happily goes everywhere with her companion!

Here's a "pupdate" on her puppies!

As you may have heard, this famous litter was nursed by hand by loving AnimalSave volunteers, their mother too weak to care for them. Today, they are strong, spayed or neutered, socialized, and ready to find their forever homes. And they're going like hotcakes!

Little Brin now lives in Alta Sierra with lots of flowers. Baxter moved to a fancy house in Rocklin. Bear is living in Roseville enjoying the company of an 8-year- old girl. Lydia moved to the Bay Area. Sweet Maggie lives in Citrus Heights helping her dad work from his home office. Lewis and Wanda stayed local and were adopted together!

That leaves Chako, Bagheera, Abigail, and Mary. Interested? Please fax your completed adoption application to 530-274-2576. You can get your adoption form online at www.animalsave.org or by stopping by our offices at 520 E. Main Street in Grass Valley.

AnimalSave wishes to thank all of our supporters who make this work possible. Without you, these sweet little pups would not have made it! Now, not only are they healthy and happy, but they are deeply enriching the lives of their human companions.

I'm BUGABOO...the cutest calico in the CAT NAP ROOM! I'm still young (only 2 years old!) and will make a wonderful companion to a person or family. I have just one little request...no other cats, please!

When Pet Adoption League closed its doors in September, many low-income pet guardians and individuals caring for sterilized feral cat colonies were left without a badly needed source of pet food. In an effort to keep pets in their homes and out of local shelters, AnimalSave decided to continue PAL's work of supporting responsible pet guardians with food.

To be eligible for the program, recipients must show proof that their animal(s) have been spayed or neutered. Food is distributed each Saturday morning.

AnimalSave is actively seeking volunteers to help keep this important new program running smoothly. We need people to greet food recipients, keep records, help load food into vehicles, and manage inventory. If you would like to take on any of these meaningful tasks to help the animals, please call us at (530) 271-7071 x206.

When you volunteer you give of yourself-your time, energy, skills and love. You give to your community. Volunteering your time and talents is a powerful way to improve the world and educate others about causes you care about. Your contribution to others can bring feelings of self-fulfillment and the knowledge that you have made a difference. Volunteering is a way of saying thank you. As a volunteer, you also receive personal benefits and enhance your personal growth. You discover your strengths and talents, make new friends, meet inspiring people, express gratitude and increase your social awareness. All the staff at AnimalSave are eternally grateful for all our volunteers. Our furry friend's thank you too. To join the team, please call 271-7071 x206.
