I can't think of any of my friends who don't have pets. Most have two or more. Several also rescue animals. They tell me the need for animal rescuers is enormous because of a high percentage of abandonment by pet owners.
The rescuers don't restrict their rescue activity to cats and dogs. Some, like my friend N. have rescued larger animals like donkeys and horses. N says she has had as many as nine or ten dogs in her home. In addition, she owns two rescued horses. 
Now the animal rescuers have help at the governmental level. This afternoon, the mayor of Albuquerque, Martin Chavez, "http://www.cabq.gov/mayor/" publicly added his name to the lists of animal lovers who want to stop euthanasia. In addition the mayor wants to reduce spending on rounding up stray animals across the city.
The mayor gave a press conference and cut a ribbon to open the first-of-its-kind government-run animal adoption center, Lucky Paws, for animals in the city.
The adoption center, occupying space vacated by retailers in the Coronado Mall in Northeast Heights of Albuquerque is accessible from the south side of the mall is already housing an appealing group of dogs and cats that it was difficult to leave behind.
Albuquerque that garnered a string of accolades last year including recognition as a good place for raising a family and for doing business, may be in line for receiving more recognition, this time for being a city that cares for its animals.

. . .Then we contacted Eloise Gift at Keller Williams. Eloise took over the listing of our home. She has shown a level of excellence second to none. Our neighbors all told us she was amazing. She has been completely involved with the sale of our home.
She had a great plan, and executed the plan completely, taking only one month to list and sell our home. She paid attention to every detail of her game plan. She kept us completely informed and showed professionalism second to none.
Some people want to sell houses. Eloise is driven to sell homes. Look out Albuquerque real estate-here she comes. Professional agents make a difference and we feel her drive and excellence made a huge difference. Ron & Deb D
