March 21, 2017Interview! Part Two – Cheryl Fernandes, Shelter Care Representative, PetLink
March 25, 2017“It’s senseless to put out all this advice if you have someone who’s not willing or able to do it all.”
In part two of this two-part episode, Tara dives into details while Heather gives us the big picture. Tara has a lot of responsibilities around St. Huberts, which include handling cat behavior challenges in the shelter such as socialization of shy cats and keeping the cats happy and entertained. She also mans the Pet Helpline, and she is doing just as much rapport and trust-building with human guardians as she does with the shelter animals. Meanwhile, Heather gives us an idea of what life is like for community cats nowadays in New Jersey—the difference between now and twenty years ago, she says, is marked.
