HELP PETFINDER & TLC FIND FOREVER HOMES FOR PETS IN BUFFALO!

HELP PETFINDER & TLC FIND FOREVER HOMES FOR PETS IN BUFFALO!
 
Petfinder has helped facilitate more than 25 million pet adoptions through nearly 13,000 shelter and rescue organizations – one of which is Ten Lives Club.

To celebrate its two decades of helping pets meet their people, Petfinder is asking animal lovers nationwide to watch the #MetOnPetfinder 20th anniversary video with a goal of reaching one million views. The video shows how adoptable pets have transformed the lives of their adopters. 

If the one million view goal is reached by Oct. 24, Petfinder will donate $200,000 to the Petfinder Foundation, funding twenty $10,000 grants to select shelter and rescue organizations nationwide, and one of those grants could go to Ten Lives Club!

After you watch the video, we’d love to hear about your Petfinder success stories on social media. Just use the hashtag #MetOnPetfinder and be sure to tag @tenlivesclub in your post.

ONCE AGAIN TLC STEPS UP TO SAVE CATS IN NEED...

Marie Edwards, President & Founder of Ten Lives Club during interview with TWC News

On Monday, November 30, 55 cats were seized from a West Seneca "rescue" called "Bob the Cat Animal Rescue". Ten Lives Club took in 26 cats one to two weeks prior to this raid by the SPCA, American Humane Association & Niagara County Health Department.

Of the 55 cats rescued, ten were so sick they had to be euthanized (NOT by Ten Lives Club). Dozens more have respiratory infections, ringworm, Feline Leukemia, and FIV.

Ten Lives Club told Time Warner Cable News that Canorrao (the owner of Bob The Cat Rescue) brought in 26 cats in the week and a half before Monday's raid.  PLUS, another 10 in the past six months prior to the raid on Monday.  That means, in TOTAL, Ten Lives Club took in at least 36 CATS from Canorrao's hording situation.

Marie Edwards, 10 Lives Club Founder and President, told Time Warner Cable News "We try to take in 20 to 25 in a week. Fifteen in one day is a lot to process. It's a lot of manpower. A lot of cages to set up."

Small rescue groups like Ten Lives Club do so much more than many people realize when these unfortunate situations happen. Although the spotlight is always on the big rescue organizations (SPCA) that have so many more resources & money. TLC ALWAYS steps in to help however we can.

NOW Ten Lives has 26 MORE to care for, provide medical attention & place in forever homes.

Please consider making a donation towards the care & medical expenses for these poor babies.

They didn't ask to be in this situation!

It costs Ten Lives Club a lot of money to rescue, treat, feed and house over 250 cats and kittens PLUS more kitties that come to TLC in situations such as this.

TEN LIVES CLUB FEATURED ON WKBW AM BUFFALO!

Channel 7 WKBW is celebrating November as Rescue a Shelter Animal month.  Linda Pellegrino from WKBW AM Buffalo invited Ten Lives Club to appear on her show Monday, November 2.  We were happy to have the opportunity!

Marie Edwards, President & Founder of Ten Lives Club, and Valerie Underwood, Volunteer Store Coordinator, were interviewed along with 2 cats - "Super" Manny & Calypso.  Valerie was going to hold Calypso but he was being camera shy!  "Super" Manny hammed it up & was a cool cucumber during the entire interview.

This was a wonderful opportunity for Ten Lives Club to spread the word about our organization!  Linda invited us to come back again in December to promote our "Home for the Holidays" adoption campaign on her AM Buffalo show.  We are looking forward to another opportunity to help our kitties forever homes!
