Pet of the Month
GI Jane!
GI Jane is a beautiful 1yr spayed female Shar-pei Yellow Lab
She has been vet checked, spayed, has all her shots including rabies
Her adoption fee is $100
Jane was living on the streets for at least 3wks before a lady took her in.
She was going to call the pound or Humane Society to have her picked up.
When I told her that she would be put to sleep, PTS, frightened to death,
in an assembly line fashion, we both decided to have a vet do it so her last minutes of life would be love not fear.
The lady said Jane wouldn’t get into a car so I went to pick her up to be euthanized.
Then Noemi called me and said she would take Jane so she wouldn’t have to die.
As soon as I saw Jane I realized she wouldn’t go into a car because she couldn’t, she was so huge, ready to have pups any day.
That morning we went to the Spay and Neuter Clinic on 28th Dr and the doctors and staff spayed and saved her.
If they hadn’t done what they did for her she would have been PTS along with her pups because no one was going to take them.
One of the techs just returned from Iraq and wanted to name her, hence the name GI Jane
We were lucky to have been able to save Jane. She is great with cats, and older kids.
She will be good with a nice dog, maybe a neutered male?
She doesn’t care to be bossed around by Noemi’s little dog and the screeching yapp yapp makes her nervous.
She is not a barker and really gets attached to the ones she loves.
Loud noises and fast new people still frighten her.
Jane is so happy now. She jumps around and loves to be petted
ADOPT GI Jane FOR LIFE!
If you would like to meet her you can call CNPS 602-332-6615

WHO WE ARE...
Citizens For North Phoenix Strays is a non-profit, 100% volunteer, no kill rescue organization that has been "Helping People Help Animals"tm since 1993. We provide help through low cost spay/neuter referral, humane trapping and altering of feral and stray cats through our SPAY-A-STRAY program, and by giving animals a second chance through adoption. CNPS aids mainly cats. These animals have been given up by their owners, or are abandoned, or are part of an unwanted litter because an irresponsible owner did not spay or neuter their pet.
"The animal rescue world is not a perfect world, but we leave it better than the way we found it"tm, "Make a difference, Spay and Neuter"tm
CNPS is not a shelter. We have no shelter facilities and can not take in your animals. We are a network of people like you who have decided to help a homeless animal. All of the animals that are available for adoption are kept by their owners or the kind person who found them until they are adopted. In order for us to help you help an animal, we simply ask that you make a commitment and provide them with shelter, food, water and love until they are adopted. We can assure you that by working together and utilizing our resources we will find a good, permanent home for that animal you are choosing to help.
We are always looking for doers, people that can and want to help one day/night a week to feed, clean up after and love the kitties.

ADOPTING A FRIEND...
The CNPS Adoption Center is located in PETsMART Metrocenter at 31st Ave, South of Peoria.
We have needy kitties looking for YOU seven days a week!
b>
The adoption fee for cats is $75.00, kittens under 6 months are $100.00. All adoption fees include spaying or neutering and inside shots (4-in-1) for life. All of our animals come with a 14 day health and compatability guarantee.
When you adopt your new companion, we want you to commit to your new pet "FOR LIFE". But if for any reason you are unable to keep your pet, it MUST be returned to CNPS. We do not want them taken to the kill shelters ie. Humane Society or the pound. (An agreement is signed at the time of adoption stating this and other responsibilities of both the adoptive family and CNPS.)
OPPORTUNITIES FOR YOU...
SPAY-A-STRAY PROGRAM - CNPS is one of the very few rescue groups that focus on feral cats in our community. This program we have put together enables us to provide assistance with the trapping and altering of feral and un-owned stray cats. We have all seen them - these cats are living in business areas, empty lots behind restaurants, at airports and schools... maybe in your neighborhood. An active program of spay/neuter and release brings a feral colony under control (0% population increase), keeps new cats from coming into the area, greatly reduces fighting and spraying behavior, improves the overall health of the cats and DIRECTLY REDUCES THE NUMBER OF ANIMALS BEING EUTHANIZED AT THE COUNTY SHELTERS! Documentation has shown that total removal and euthanization of these cats has proven to be completely ineffective and more costly than a spay/neuter/release program. Many communities throughout the country have put into place a trap/alter/release program and found it to be the only EFFECTIVE way to control the feral cat population. Please get involved in this worthwhile program. The cost to neuter a male cat is typically $30.00 and the cost to spay a female cat is $45.00 to $75.00. Please, help us make a difference with a donation earmarked for the SPAY-A-STRAY PROGRAM! (More information about trap/alter/release programs can be found at the Alley Cat Allies website at www.alleycat.org)
VOLUNTEERING and DONATIONS...
VOLUNTEERS MAKE THE DIFFERENCE! We need your help!! Areas of need include help at the adoption center, cage cleaning and care during the week for the kitties staying at the store. Volunteers must be 18 years old or older. Donations of time, money and any type of animal care products, including (but not limited to) food (mostly cat and kitten food), litter, pet carriers and cages, towels and blankets, bowls, leashes, toys, etc, are always very much appreciated. If we all work together, we can help save more animals.
