"CHEERS to Mitchell Animal Rescue, a group that conducted a fundraising flea market over the weekend and one that has made a dent in the number of animal euthanizations in Mitchell.  The group started out last fall with a goal of preventing euthanization of adoptable pets - those that are not vicious, feral, or sick.  In the months since, the euthanization rate has dropped 38 percent."

So far in 2009, Mitchell Animal Rescue has helped several pets find new homes, foster homes, or other rescues to stay with until they were adopted.  

We have fostered 45 dogs and 9 cats; 48 dogs and 30 cats have been adopted from Mitchell's Animal shelter, and 10 dogs went to other rescues.  Many pets were found by their owners.  Before we started Mitchell Animal Rescue, all the pets we have fostered would more than likely have been euthanized!

Dr. Robert McWhirter of Mitchell Orthopaedic Center is graciously donating the cans from his clinic to Mitchell Animal Rescue.  Thanks Dr. Mac!

The employees of County Fair Food Store, Tessiers, and Krohmer Plumbing are donating their cans from their breakrooms.  Thanks everyone!  It all adds up!

 You can do your part to help the planet and help us at the same time.   If you have any aluminum cans saved and would like to get rid of them now, email us at mitchellanimalrescue@yahoo.com and we will make arrangements to have them picked up.  (Must be in large garbage bags).  All proceeds will go to the Spay/Neuter program or the care of the animals in the shelter or in foster care.
