Coertje's Sharebook 

I am originally from Oklahoma. And Chris was my best friend in high 
school and was always a huge animal lover, as well as a varsity sports and 
straight A student. Well, i lost touch with Chris over the years somehow, but reconnected a couple of weeks ago thru his two sisters that i searched for and found on Facebook. So they gave me his email and we have been catching up. I found out Chris has an animal rescue sanctuary called Real Rescue Inc, with a website of www.straynomore.com. He has been struggling a bit with his animal rescue place, like so many of them do across the country. And i decided to help in ways i could, and reach out to people on Facebook and Care2 because both are a great way to connect with friends and friends of friend of friends. 

I believe in the power of good thoughts and prayer, and I ask all who read this to send good thoughts to Chris in Oklahoma at his animal rescue in Oklahoma called Real Rescue and the 200 some odd dogs, cats, pigs, goats and horse that live there.  

"We are a true "no-kill" shelter and have never euthanized any animal due to lack of placement. The term "no-kill is often used with the catch phrase "no-kill of adoptable animals" meaning someone at some time decides if an animal is placeable or not. This is not our policy. We believe every animal is either adoptable or will be a resident of the sanctuary area of our Rescue. As a sanctuary animal he/she will live out their life with human contact, food, medical care, and shelter. Many are finally adopted, sometimes after years of being with us. We try to help any creature that crosses our path and is in need of assistance. We provide whatever medical, psychological, physical and nutritional care the animal needs. Of course, this is expensive and we depend entirely on tax-deductible contributions from family, friends, and supporters. We especially try to help elderly and handicapped animals and people. We do accept animals from individuals and other groups when space permits."
