Today I got an email from Maureen Sheridan, who runs The Animal House Jamaica, inquiring about a partnership with AnimalWOrk. The Animal House is one of only two animal shelters in Jamaica. Located in Ocho Rios on the northern coast of the island, the Animal House takes in stray, injured, and abused animals and provides them with food, shelter, medical care (including spay/neuter), and most importantly, LOVE. It's a no-kill facility, and they believe in finding homes for all of their animals, one by one. This is an extraordinary place, and will hopefully become one of the fabulous animal-friendly organizations that benefits from AnimalWork.org.
I'd like to end with a quote posted on the Animal House website:
"If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you. That is the principal difference between a dog and a man." -Mark Twain
