The boxer mix was extremely underweight, with very little fur and open sores. Katie had been confined in one room for most of her life; now her owner was moving, and could not take Katie along. The APL staff quickly set to work. One of the first orders of business: a bath. APL volunteer Angela stepped in to help. Initially, Katie was frightened and cowered, but eventually she let Angela run the water over her, calming her irritated skin. During her bath, Katie rested her head on Angela’s arm, and looked into her eyes, pleading for some relief. At that moment, Angela recalls, Katie won her heart. Angela was determined to give this sick, neglected dog a better life. She became Katie’s foster mom, less than a week after Katie’s arrival at the APL. The road to that better life wasn’t short, or without its Katie loved her adoption day party at Bow Wow Beach. bumps.

In January 2016, however, that outcome seemed far from certain. Cinderella is a beautiful cat with long gray and white fur. But, like any good fairy tale heroine, Cinderella had her troubles. A senior at 10 years old, Cinderella had painful bladder stones, and needed dental care. Her owner moved into a nursing home, and was no longer able to care for her. A family member surrendered Cinderella to the Cleveland APL. Enter the fairy god-parents. The APL veterinary Cinderella and her new mom, Jennifer. staff provided her with much-needed medical care. That care took several months, most of treated like royalty. She sleeps through the night, often which she spent in the home of an APL foster on her own blanket on her chair in Jennifer’s room. parent, Jodi, who gave this gorgeous girl much- Then it’s up in the morning for another day in charge needed time and attention. Then, it was time for of her “kingdom.” Life for this kitty is so good that, like Cinderella to find her new home. any good fairy tale princess, Jennifer reports, sometimes Cinderella actually begins to “sing!” Fortunately for Cinderella, her timing was perfect. Jennifer wanted a furry roommate to keep her “I am so happy to have her in my life!” Jennifer company; friends suggested she look at the exclaims. Thank you, Jennifer. We’re so glad that you Cleveland APL. Jennifer was looking specifically and Cinderella are living happily forever after! for an older cat, because they don’t get adopted as easily. And since Jennifer is a quiet person, she was hoping to find a cat that would be a low-key, cuddly companion. Jennifer browsed the APL website the night before her visit. She saw Cinderella and “instantly fell in love with her.” Jennifer noted that the website said she was in foster care, so she wasn’t sure if Cinderella, with her striking markings and big green eyes, would even be at the APL the next day.

PatterJune 2017 Letter from the CEO pg. 2 Basil: A Tale of Trust Fur-Get-Me-Not Telethon pg. 7 Dick Goddard’s APL Telethon pg. 9 Chi Chi’s tale initially sounds rather sad: The little Min Pin-Chihuahua-Terrier mix was surrendered to the Cleveland APL because her owners, who found her as a stray, decided that she was too much responsibility. But their act of surrendering her to the APL gave her a chance at a new life. And oh, what a life it is! Eric is an actor touring the country with The Phantom of the Opera. He thought carefully about getting a dog, ultimately deciding that a furry friend who could go on tour with him would make life on the road much more pleasant. He researched breeds, and on his days off visited shelters in various cities, looking for the right companion. In June 2016, Eric, whose home is in California, was in Cleveland for a three-week run of Phantom. He decided that the time was right. Eric visited the Cleveland APL on one of his days off. As he walked through the adoption floor, he noticed that all of the dogs were excitedly barking and jumping in Basil with her new dad, Eric. their kennels. Well, all of them except one: Chi Chi. She perked up, came to the front of the kennel to sniff Eric, he recalls, then turned and went back to her bed! Her calm demeanor and independent manner both amused and appealed to Eric.
