Oops—meant to say I volunteered at Best Friends in Kanab, Utah. My understanding at the time was that they only accepted animals that were scheduled to be euthanized if not adopted out of shelters. They also took dogs from the war zone and had yurts for them (Afghanistan, maybe?) Don’t remember.
I was under the impression that they took other hard-to-adopt cases, but maybe my FeLV+ kitten was a special case. OTOH, any shelter I brought her to would probably have euthanized her.
I was going to mention Best Friends. I used to subscribe to their magazine. They are a great organization.
