SUMMARY:Baby-Ready Pets
DESCRIPTION:Every year\, thousands of animals are turned into shelters by parents concerned about how their pet may affect the health and safety of their new baby. Any pet can have undesirable\, although natural reactions to a new baby. New sounds\, smells\, and activities surrounding an infant may cause a pet to see the baby as competition\, prey\, or even a toy. \nBaby-Ready Pets offers preparation and assistance to help expectant families prepare their home and their pets for the arrival of the new baby and to make sure that it is a safe and (relatively) stress-free experience for all. This seminar is based on a program created by the Providence Animal Rescue League and the Rhode Island SPCA\, and has been endorsed by the ASPCA. The Animal Welfare League of Arlington’s staff will present Baby-Ready Pets for expectant parents in a two-hour workshop at the League. \nAfter the program\, participants may call or e-mail follow-up questions if they need additional support. Participants will also receive helpful handouts and a CD of baby sounds to help desensitize their pets to the sounds of the new arrival. This is a HUMAN-ONLY class\, please leave your pets at home. Baby-Ready Pets sessions are from 6:30-8:30 p.m. at the Animal Welfare League of Arlington\, 2650 S. Arlington Mill Drive. \nThere is no fee for the class\, but donations are welcome. Reservations are required and space is limited. \nTo see all available class dates and register for a class\, please visit our Baby-Ready Pets Registration Page.

SUMMARY:Home for the Holidays
DESCRIPTION:  \nGive the gift of family this holiday season:\nfoster a shelter pet through our Home for the Holidays program!\n  \nFrom December 20th to 27th\, we are inviting local families to give shelter a break from their kennels and bring them home for the holidays. Our goal is to get as many animals as possible into foster homes for the holidays – dogs\, cats\, rabbits\, and guinea pigs alike! \nThere is no fee to take part in this program. AWLA will provide all basic supplies for your foster pet\, but of course fosters are welcomed (even encouraged) to provide them with extra toys\, etc during their stay. If you choose to adopt your foster pet at the end of (or before!) the foster period\, you will receive $25 off your adoption fee! \n*PLEASE NOTE: we are running low on leashes and pet carriers\, so please plan to bring one with you to pick up your foster pet!* \n  \nHere’s how it works:\n\nSign up using this form. This is not required\, but will help AWLA gauge interest in the program\, and will help us determine what foster pet might be a good fit for you!\nArrive at the shelter on Dec 20th anytime between 12PM – 6PM to pick up your foster pet (if you are not available Dec 20th\, you may also pick up Dec 21st\, 22nd\, or 23rd). AWLA staff will work with you to assign an appropriate foster pet at the time of pick-up.\nBring home your foster pet! Fosters must be able to keep their foster pet from the time of pickup until Dec 27th at noon\, barring serious unknown behavioral or medical issues with their foster pet. Fosters may opt to extend their foster period until January 2nd\, 2019.\n\n  \nPlease note:\n\nFosters need to be residents of VA\, MD\, or DC.\nSigning up in advance does not guarantee participation/approval in the foster program. It does mean that you will receive program updates via email\, and will make your foster contract process faster once a foster pet has been assigned to you.\nWe anticipate there may be wait times on Dec 20th to pick up foster pets. Please be prepared to wait\, and understand that because of these we cannot guarantee you will be able to foster a pet of your choosing (although fosters can dictate what species of pet they foster) – foster pets will be sent home on a first-come\, first-serve basis to appropriate foster homes.\nFosters need to be able to keep foster pets separated from owned pets in their home. Owned pets in the home also need to be current on their rabies vaccines. We ask that foster cats/rabbits/guinea pigs are kept strictly indoors\, and foster dogs are not taken to dog parks.\n\n  \nClick here to sign up for the Home for the Holidays program!

SUMMARY:Pet Loss Support Group
DESCRIPTION:Our pets are important members of the family. They are devoted companions who give us their unconditional love and acceptance. For a pet caregiver\, the loss of a companion animal can be one of life’s most difficult experiences. When we lose a beloved friend\, it often helps by sharing our feelings with others who have also experienced a similar loss. \nFor more than 25 years\, Kathy Reiter has helped pet owners cope with their loss through Pet Loss Support Group meetings at local shelters. \nKathy is recognized as the area’s leading authority on pet loss. Kathy is a psychiatric social worker with a specialty in grief and bereavement. She has appeared on Good Morning America\, CBS News with Dan Rather and PBS. Kathy has also been featured in The Washington Post\, Better Homes and Gardens\, Good Housekeeping and other widely-circulated magazines. \nKathy was instrumental in establishing the hospice movement in the United States and was directly responsible for the construction of the first hospice in Arlington\, VA. While the Arlington hospice was being built\, Kathy’s beloved cat\, Prince\, was diagnosed with a terminal illness. While being experienced in human loss\, Kathy was now faced with impending pet loss of her animal friend. Kathy turned for help\, for resources\, and yet found none. Through her own personal experience\, Kathy came to realize the need for pet loss support\, and generously offers her gentle support to anyone who is grappling with such a loss. \nThe support group will meet quarterly at 7:00 pm on the second Wednesday of January\, April\, July\, and October at the shelter. There is no charge to attend these meetings\, and all are welcome. No reservations are required.

SUMMARY:Kitten College Foster Training
DESCRIPTION:The Animal Welfare League of Arlington is one of the only shelters in the nation that takes in kittens from other jurisdictions. In fact\, AWLA takes in just a very few kittens from Arlington County\, thanks to our highly successful trap-neuter-return program that has greatly reduced the population of feral cats. Instead\, the Kitten College answers the needs of shelters and groups in DC\, Maryland\, Virginia and West Virginia. We take in orphaned and sick kittens that require bottle-feeding and specialized care; some remain in the College for intensive care\, while others go to our expansive network of foster caregivers. \nDuring the session we will cover fostering basics\, policies and procedures\, and teach potential fosters how to bottle feed\, about common neonatal kitten health issues\, and more! \nThe Kitten College opened in late July 2017 and by year’s end had taken in 356 kittens ages newborn to eight weeks; during the entire previous year (2016) AWLA took in 92 kittens of the same age. In just five months the College tripled the number of kittens saved while also increasing their survival rate!  In 2018 we saved 1\,086 kittens and we hope you’ll help us save even more lives this year!

SUMMARY:Pet Loss Support Group Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Our pets are important members of the family. They are devoted companions who give us their unconditional love and acceptance. For a pet caregiver\, the loss of a companion animal can be one of life’s most difficult experiences. When we lose a beloved friend\, it often helps by sharing our feelings with others who have also experienced a similar loss. \nThe support group meets quarterly at 7:00 pm on the second Wednesday of  January\,  April\,  July\, and October at the the Animal Welfare League of Arlington. There is no charge to attend these meetings\, and all are welcome. No reservations are required. \nFor more than 25 years\, Kathy Reiter has offered her help to pet owners coping with their loss through free Pet Loss Support Group meetings at local shelters. She also offers her support group at the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria. \nKathy is recognized as the area’s leading authority on pet loss. Kathy is a psychiatric social worker with a specialty in grief and bereavement. She has appeared on Good Morning America\,CBS News with Dan Rather and PBS. Kathy has also been featured in The Washington Post\, Better Homes and Gardens\, Good Housekeeping and other widely-circulated magazines. \nKathy was instrumental in establishing the hospice movement in the United States and was directly responsible for the construction of the first hospice in Arlington\, VA. While the Arlington hospice was being built\, Kathy’s beloved cat\, Prince\, was diagnosed with a terminal illness. While being experienced in human loss\, Kathy was now faced with impending pet loss of her animal friend. Kathy turned for help\, for resources\, and yet found none. Through her own personal experience\, Kathy came to realize the need for pet loss support\, and generously offers her gentle support to anyone who is grappling with such a loss.
