I’m so sad.
I used to love to go in to the Milo Foundation in San Rafael and just hang out with the animals. I would spend a lazy Saturday afternoon cuddling with the kitties and doggies.
What I loved about Milo was the ease with which they they let people like me be with the animals.
It was so relaxing.
One form to fill out and then I got to hug and play with lots of different dogs and cats. It was a great way to spend a Saturday.
Since my kitty Mozart died I’ve been the petless pet sitter and so I’ve been on the hunt for the right animal. I did some short-term fostering for a couple of Milo animals but they just weren’t the right fit. So I’m still the petless pet sitter waiting for the right pet to choose me.
Having the ability to go to Milo and be with the animals was the perfect solution for me during this in between stage of not having a pet.
My personal experience during my many visits to the Milo Foundation is that Lynne Tingle has the utmost concern and love for the animals. Milo was well-staffed with loving volunteers (and often there were more volunteers than people looking at animals). The shelter was always clean and orderly when I visited. The dogs and cats looked so happy and healthy to me.
I hope that Milo Foundation will be able open its doors again.
It’s Saturday and I really miss my visit with the Milo animals…
