To Whom It May Concern,

This letter confirms that Gabrielle Attig is an active volunteer with Paw and Feather Plan Inc., a non-profit pet rescue. Ms. Attig donates her time, energy and love to pets in need, and to this rescue, by fostering dogs in need of a place to call (temporary) home, while we find them permanent homes.

To date, Gabrielle has fostered 2 dogs for the rescue. She’s graciously handled some of the transport on her own, and even though the rescue supplies fosters with food, treats, etc., Gabrielle is one of those fosters that has taken it upon herself to supply the foster dogs with whatever they need… without burdening the rescue in any way.

Gabrielle is a strong and direct young woman. -A few weeks ago, I scheduled a dental for a dog in her care without first consulting her on the appointment time. She was quick to politely tell me to inform her first of any appointments moving forward, so we could avoid scheduling conflicts.

I appreciated this type of direct communication, and have no doubt that any worthwhile individuals and/or companies will be equally-appreciative of Ms. Attig’s many distinguished qualities.

Gabrielle’s a hard worker, and although I don’t know much about what she does, I do know she takes great pride in her work with The Rawlings Company.

Lastly, Gabrielle seems to be a person that would only commit to something if she can give it her all. So I have no doubt she’ll make a great attorney, in whatever sub field she decides on, in the great state of California.

Sincerely,

Jessica L. Pita

Owner and Primary Pet Caregiver, PAFP Inc

-Why Rescue Makes Temp Move Back to So. Florida (08-2024)

This blog title was so simple to type, much simpler than the process of bringing this planned move into fruition! ~And maybe 50 people read the rescue's blogs, it's certainly not a big audience, but still: even if one person reads it, and it helps that person and/or their pet, then it's worth it. Why The Move (broken down into 3 categories): 1.) For approximately 4 years I worked at Miami Dade Animal Services when I lived in Miami Beach the first time around (circa 2010), mostly via an ASPCA-grant-funded-position which was aimed at increasing our live release rate… which I did quite well, but boy it was a lot of work! Because of my time working in animal welfare while in Miami, I have some great rescue contacts there. And I’ve always wanted to get Paw and Feather Plan ‘rooted’ in South Florida… where the idea for this rescue was born. I know several individuals in a...

Policy Changes Affecting Individuals Requesting Rehoming Assistance from PAFP (changes do not affect our pet plan clients)

As of 01/31/2024 these are PAFP's new SOPs (last revised on 02/13/2024): -As PAFP currently has a hospice foster that did belong to a plan client, the rescue isn't able to take in other fosters at this time for the most part. -The rescue tries to pull/rescue pets from our high intake municipal shelter, Louisville Metro Animal Services, exclusively . The rescue pulls pets only when we have a confirmed, volunteer foster home for pets. -Any rehome cases we do take on will be charged a rate of $17/hour, and the ability to pay the $17/hour is not a guarantee we'll be able to 'say yes' to your particular rehome case. Additional Notes in Regards to these New Standard Operating Procedures: In a continued and consistent effort to remain as transparent as possible for the rescue's small-but-mighty following, I offer detailed explanations on the why of each of the above new procedu...

Do NOT Feed Your Dog Grain Free Full Time...

Unless you want to put it at direct risk of dying prematurely of heart failure. Yep, you read it right. There are no 'ifs, ands or buts' about it: Feeding Dogs a Strictly Grain Free Diet puts them at non-hereditary risk of dilated cardiomyopathy. Thankfully, Janine, a PAFP foster and adopter, enlightened me to this fact. Once Janine's 3rd whippet had late stage symptoms of advanced heart disease, she had reached her wits' end. Her first two whippets had succumbed to heart disease too. -And she just didn't get it: her dogs enjoyed top shelf dog food, Acana, had plenty of daily exercise, and regular vet visits. That was it : beloved dog number 3 was going to a veterinarian-cardiologist. -Enough with unexplained heart disease for Janine's dogs... and heartbreak for Janine! Janine's foster, June, that almost w...
