We are extremely glad to have long-term volunteers return now that the borders are open. Five more pairs of helping hands this month and we are so grateful. It's been so hard at the shelter for the past two years as local volunteers are few and far between as it has always been.  I can't be sure what keeps them away, maybe a difference in what's perceived as volunteering, or the actual hard work of a shelter volunteer or a misunderstanding of what rescue at this scale entails?  That said, we are very thankful to the few dedicated locals we see regularly.
We've had a couple critical rescues in the past 10 days that I'll introduce in another blog post.  There's always so much gong on, it's often too much to explain!
