Dear Animal Lovers, It’s an extraordinary time for Seattle Humane Society and the pets who count on us every day. Please join me in celebrating these recent developments:

13212 SE Eastgate Way Bellevue, WA 98005 seattlehumane.org Seattle Humane Society is an independent, donor-funded nonprofit animal welfare organization saving abandoned, stray and surrendered pets in our community.

We welcomed more than 1,000 guests to our 24th annual Tuxes & Tails gala on May 11, our largest fundraiser of the year. We were overwhelmed by the generosity of our guests and sponsors, who contributed a record-breaking $1.6 million for the animals in our care!

Editorial: marketing@seattlehumane.org

We asked our Tuxes guests to raise their paddles high for a special Fund-A-Need project, and they exceeded our expectations with $630,000 in donations to expand our Life-Saver Rescue Program over the next two years. Two new vehicles will help us rescue more than 6,000 pets from shelters lacking the resources to care for them.

Once those pets arrive at Seattle Humane, they’ll receive the medical care they need and deserve.

Thanks to our new partnership with Washington State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine, 50 fourth-year veterinary students will join us this year as part of their clinical training.

A decade ago, many of those WSU students were just kids — kids who loved animals and wanted to work with them as grownups. This summer we have more than 200 kids enrolled in our Animal Adventures Summer Camp. They’ll learn about animal care, behavior and handling and how they can make a difference in the lives of pets and people in need.

In another decade, these kids may be the next generation of WSU vet students, shelter volunteers, or valued friends and donors like you!

News & Updates

Spay Day Benefits Both Pets and People Seattle Humane’s veterinary team welcomed visiting volunteer veterinarians who came to assist our staff during World Spay Day. The event is one of four special feline spay and neuter days each year in which community members can bring their cats to Seattle Humane for low-fee surgeries.

We spoke with one customer, Pam White, who learned about Seattle Humane Society’s low-fee spay and neuter program by word

of mouth. Pam receives disability benefits and qualified to have her 6-month-old gray kitten, Molly Mayhem, spayed, microchipped and vaccinated at a reduced rate.

Spaying and neutering is one of the most important things you can do for your pet and it helps reduce pet homelessness. King County families of four with an income of $65,000 or less can qualify for our program.

Learn more and make an appointment at seattlehumane.org or call (425) 649-7560.

Welcome WSU Students!

We’re proud of our partnership with Washington State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine. During their two week rotation, each student receives hands-on training with Seattle Humane Society veterinarians, as well as the chance to assist with unique surgical procedures for the shelter animals in our care.

Visiting WSU veterinary student Alex Shearer initially considered a career as a medical doctor, but a volunteer stint at a veterinary clinic changed his mind. “I experienced what I call ‛the veterinary vibe,’ and it felt like a better fit for me,” Alex said. With that he switched to veterinary medicine.

At Seattle Humane, Alex assisted Chief Medical Officer Dr. Brad Crauer with Harriet, a shelter kitten suffering from an eyelid condition. “Alex showed great skill and confidence while assisting with Harriet's procedure,” said Dr. Crauer. Alex also provided health checks, spay and neuter surgeries, microchipping and vaccinations for shelter dogs and cats. The partnership between Seattle Humane Society and WSU’s College of Veterinary Medicine will play an important role in our communities and beyond.

True Compassion at Age 14 Selfless and innovative, Genevieve Dwight stands as a teen who has performed several amazing acts of giving to the shelter. As a graduate of Humane Teen Club, she has remained dedicated to the support of the animals at Seattle Humane Society.

In 2012, Genevieve held a pet food drive and made holiday gifts to raise money for Seattle Humane Society.

She collected more than 1,300 pounds of pet food, requiring three car trips to deliver it to the Seattle Humane Society Pet Food Bank! Genevieve also held her 3rd annual holiday sale by selling handmade bookmarks, jewelry, candy favors and other fun gifts, with proceeds totaling $1,731! Please join us in thanking Genevieve for all of her hard work and commitment to the animals in our care.

Did You Know?

Interesting Pet Facts

Carrots Anyone? Rabbits’ teeth grow throughout their lives so they need to chew every day to keep them worn down.

Built-In Air Conditioning Kitties stay cool by grooming themselves. The saliva from licking fur evaporates and helps cools them off.

In The Mood A cat’s whiskers point forward when they feel excited, playful or alert and lie flat on their face when threatened or aggressive.

Spay What? Cats can begin mating at 4-and-a-half months of age. A female is pregnant for about nine weeks, and she can get pregnant again just a few weeks after giving birth, resulting in multiple litters in a year.

Grow Old Wisely Old dogs can learn new things. Continuing to learn may even help hold back mental decline due to aging.

Mixed Signals A wagging tail does not always mean a dog is friendly. Look for other body language signs such as relaxed ears and eyes along with a loose, relaxed tail wag.

Marking My Territory After going to the bathroom dogs often scratch the ground. Dogs have glands in their feet and scratching leaves a scent that marks their turf.

D

enise Beard is as dedicated to saving animals’ lives as anyone could be.

A volunteer at Seattle Humane for 25 years, she’s been involved in many aspects of the organization’s mission of bringing, and keeping, people and pets together. During her impressive Seattle Humane Society volunteer career, she’s supported the Pet Food Bank, Pet Project, helped with Santa Pet Portraits, and most notably, been the lead procurer of auction items for the annual Tuxes & Tails fundraiser.

Denise and her husband Jim, parents of two rescued Dachshunds, will make a difference far into the future in the lives of animals at Seattle Humane, thanks to a planned gift. When they first set up their individual retirement accounts (IRAs), Denise and Jim designated Seattle Humane as the beneficiary of the accounts — a simple process that only required the completion of a single document; no attorney or professional advisor necessary. By doing so, they will leave a legacy of love for the animals they care so passionately about.

To learn more about how you too can be a hero for pets in need at Seattle Humane Society, call (425) 641-0080, email scott@seattlehumane.org, or visit seattlehumane.org/donate/plannedgiving.

Including Seattle Humane in your estate plans saves lives and can have tax advantages, too.

Denise and Jim Beard are proud parents of their two rescued Dachshunds, Dory and Freida.

An Evening for the Animals Tuxes & Tails 2013 raised nearly $1.6 million – the most successful fundraiser in our history!

M

ay 11 was a night to remember and cause for celebration! Seattle Humane Society’s 24th annual Tuxes & Tails event welcomed more than 1,000 animal lovers to the ballroom of the Hyatt Regency Bellevue and raised nearly $1.6 million, making this gala the most successful fundraiser in our history.

“Compassionate support for our mission is essential and we’re proud to host Tuxes & Tails,” said CEO David Loewe. “We owe a heartfelt thanks to our sponsors, hundreds of supporters who procure and donate auction items, to devoted staff and volunteers who make the evening a success, and to our guests whose donations for the animals exceeded expectations.”

Our guests donned their finest attire to celebrate and bid on more than 450 silent auction items, including spa packages, resort getaways, pet-specific experiences, and more! While the four-course gourmet dinner was in full swing, our guests held bid numbers high for exclusive live auction items and memorable experiences such as VIP golf and lunches with SuperSonics stars Gus Williams and Lenny Wilkens; six days on an African photo safari; the opportunity to join Seattle Humane on a life-saving dog rescue trip to Los Angeles, and much more. Some of the most spirited and exciting bidding every year takes place between donors who want their pet on the cover of our popular Power of Companionship calendar.

Michael and Roslyn Ellison’s $14,000 winning bid makes their adorable Dachshund, Ramona, the cover pet for 2014!

Each year at Tuxes & Tails, Seattle Humane identifies a Fund-A-Need project. Our goal this year was to raise $450,000 to fund our Life-Saver Rescue Program for two years. This program will save the lives of thousands of innocent dogs and cats from shelters that don’t have the space or resources to care for them. We will purchase a 24-foot custom-built vehicle that can transport thousands of pets from across the state and as far away as California, and a second vehicle to help us make trips throughout the Puget Sound region. We want to give special thanks to Jim and Bet Schuler of The Schuler Family Foundation, and John and Rosalind Jacobi, for their lead gifts of $50,000 each for this Fund-A-Need project. Together everyone raised an astounding $630,000 to expand our Life-Saver Rescue Program.

The finale of our gala was the celebrity and pet runway show, featuring sports figures and media personalities walking Seattle Humane Society pets available for adoption. We’re thrilled to announce that 28 of our adoptable runway stars were adopted following this memorable night!

From the bottom of every cat, dog, and critter heart at Seattle Humane Society, thank you to everyone who made this year’s Tuxes & Tails a special evening.

mazing Awakenings

e all have felt the love of an animal, but what if that love was the only thing that made you want to get out of bed? Howard Hirshman is one of our dedicated volunteers and his dog Estella is part of our Visiting Pet Friends Program. Together they visit nearly 800 people a month at retirement and health care facilities. Estella is great with visiting a large number of people, but there is one special person who has been transformed by Estella’s visits.

Every Thursday for the past year, Estella visits a woman named Mary who suffers from dementia and depression. Prior to Estella’s visits, Mary rarely left her room and some days did not even get out of bed. A facility staff member asked Howard if Estella could visit Mary in her room. Estella first used a nose nudge to wake Mary from rest and for the first time in a long time, Mary smiled. Now, Estella greets Mary with her customary nudge and Mary leaves her room to have Estella guide her to other residents' rooms to say hello.

Mary gently grooms Estella with a brush, and when the weather is warm they stroll in the outdoor garden. Mary has no long-term memory and very little shortterm memory, but she always remembers Estella.

C

Estella visits local retirement and health care facilities as an SHS Visiting Pet Friend, lifting the spirits of the elderly and ill patients she visits.

apturing Hearts Unconditionally A

nimal hoarding scenarios can be heartbreaking, especially when the animals are suffering from a lack of proper care. Roger, a 4-year-old domestic shorthair cat, came to Seattle Humane from a hoarding situation involving 70 other cats.

This poor fellow was missing an eye due to a previous trauma, and during his intake exam Seattle Humane’s veterinarians found that he was still suffering from sinus and nasal pain due to the injury. Thanks to our Grinstein Fund for cats, Roger got the medical care he needed, in addition to being neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. From there, Roger was able to recover at the home of a loving foster volunteer through our Foster Care Program.

This dedicated foster volunteer made a strong connection with Roger, adopted him, and soon realized he would make a great certified pet therapy cat. Roger is now in our Visiting Pet Friends Program where he makes regular appearances at retirement and health care facilities. The Theodora, an assisted living facility, welcomes pet therapy animals with open arms. Roger is a favorite at this cozy facility, and has become a special friend of the residents. Thanks to our Visiting Pet Friends Program and the Grinstein Fund for cats, so many people will know the unconditional love of a pet like Roger!

Roger survived a hoarding situation and received the medical care he needed through the Grinstein Fund for cats.

Dear Seattle Humane Society, I found Tati sleeping on my bed and I thought she looked like she was smiling. She was such a scared kitty when we first got her and she looks so content in the picture.

The Pooch Post & Mew Mail

Steve works at home all day, so Tati slowly came out of her shell and started talking to him.

Now she hangs out with us whenever we are home. She has a morning and evening routine where she runs around the house and passes by her scratching post for a good scratch each round. She has lost one-and-a-half pounds and this morning she beat me up the stairs! Tati is now able to jump up on the couch and bed and get silly. She has this scratchy voice and every morning when the coffee pot starts she comes upstairs and says something that sounds like "Heh woe? Heh woe?"

It's hysterical.

Thank you for keeping Tati safe at the Seattle Humane Society. Tati brings us a lot of happiness and we have become a family.

Sincerely, Janet and Steve Catron

Hello, We adopted Jersey, a 3-year-old English Springer Spaniel, in December of 2012. It was obvious when he joined our family that he was destined for great things and therefore needed a grand name. Sir Winston Churchill, as he is now called, is a complete joy. We tell everyone he meets that he is the most wonderful dog in the whole world and we are so glad to have adopted him!

Winston is pictured here with his sister Albi (also a rescue). We encourage everyone to look into adopting a rescue animal first when considering a pet. The reward for adopting a rescue is a lifetime of love and joy from an animal that is forever grateful of the second chance you have given them.
