"DunRoamin'" means just that: our strays are all done roaming, are safe at last and will finally receive the medical care, attention and the family they deserve.
DunRoamin's mandate is to help those strays who have no one to care for them - the ones who are abandoned, abused, injured, neglected and have no other alternative for life. We cannot accept healthy animals, as we would very quickly have no room for the ones who truly need us - the ones who would most likely "fall through the cracks" of our current system.
We focus on three main aspects:
- Rescue: helping those strays who are injured, neglected, sick, etc and have no one to care for them. We also try to help those who are too sick, too injured or too young to survive in a normal shelter setting.
- Treatment: providing food, medication, surgery, etc to all rescued animals as required. This also includes helping them to find foster and permanent homes, and ensuring they have the life they deserve which is safe, secure and free of fear.
- Education: we endeavour to set an inspiring example. We believe animals are deserving of our care and respect. Through our responsible guardianship of the pet, by ensuring they are spayed or neutered, by providing briefings, handouts, flyers, newspaper articles, etc, we try to encourage people to treat all animals with compassion and respect. Our main target group is the younger generation so that they will do better by animals, as hopefully we have improved upon their treatment through the advancements since our parents' and grandparents' generations.
"TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE"
This website is dedicated to the volunteers and supporters who consistently go above and beyond to help abandoned, abused, neglected, sick and injured strays in our communities. This includes donors, fund raisers, litter scoopers, vet staff, drivers, cuddlers, adopters, fosters and many others who routinely give freely of their time, abilities and resources to help those animals less fortunate.
We'd also like to dedicate this new site to Susan and Lauren Crompton, the originators of DunRoamin's first official website, www.bekindtogodscreatures.com, which was instrumental in bringing DunRoamin' to the attention of others and helping to educate and pass on our message of the requirement for spaying and neutering our pets so that they do not contribute to the already overwhelming number of homeless animals.
Swiffer
I'm available!
Swiffer was examined by her new vet friend at the Florenceville Veterinary Clinic and the following was learned: she was born about June 29, 2018, so is about eight years old - it's time for her to have a home where she is safe, healthy and well cared for. Swiffer was diagnosed with flea allergies, was already spayed (so she had belonged to someone at some point) and she required a dental intervention to help with her teeth - they definitely need work - this will make her more comfortable.
Swiffer was initially timid and unsure, but with a warm bed, parasite medications that are already working to make her more comfortable and lots of nutritious food, she is resting well and gaining back her strength. She is under weight, and we are currently encouraging her to eat so that she may get to a healthy weight. Her current go-to food is tuna - she is not so happy with regular cat food, but we will get her there. Her kidneys are enlarged, and she is currently on medication to help with this condition. We hope that she will soon be well. She has entered our Sponsor A Kitty program to help with the medical care she will require for her kidneys, and is grateful to her sponsors who make this medical assistance possible.
