Two years ago, this retired nurse went to work in a veterinarian clinic just for the pure joy of it. At that time, cats and dogs were globally being abandoned or displaced by the thousands. The good news: people with their hearts in the right place were rescuing as many of these precious pets as possible. In Washington state alone, airplane loads (literally) were being flown in.

Their biggest concern was to find home for them.
