From Ned's more Updates on Noah's Ark

I have not ever been to Noah's Ark so I cannot say anything bad about the place itself. What I can say that I was a witness to, was the condition of the 15 or so cats and dogs that were brought from Noah's Ark by Animal Control, into the animal hospital where I am employed. Every one of them appeared gravely ill with upper respiratory symptoms, runny goopy eyes, and a host of other problems yet to be diagnosed. I cannot describe the worst of the cases that came in to protect the identity of the animals and of our facility, but these animals were on the brink of death from infections and diseases that have gone untreated for too long. If this is any indication of the "care" they were given while at Noah's Ark, then I would have to say that the cause for which the facility stands for, is a huge sham. Every one of these animals that were brought in are being diagnosed, given the proper course of medicine and will be put up for adoption. We weren't the only hospital to donate services to these neglected animals, many others did the same and contrary to what one other poster said, these animals will go to good homes and will not sit in a cage for the remainder of their lives.

In her own words..........
So far today, there have been medicated baths for many, grooming for the worst mats I have ever seen on a dog, IV fluids for several that were dehydrated and each one was resting comfortably on a clean padded pillow with fresh water and food available when I left for the day. There were a few in isolation due to the nature of their illnesses but they too, were resting comfortably. Maybe the owner of Noah's Ark has or had good intentions, but there comes a point when you have to say you can't take anymore animals in. When you can't provide the necessary medical care required for rehabilitation, then you need to turn to someone else for help. I'm sure many will argue that these animals were brought to Noah's Ark in bad shape but again I must say, find other resources then because you can't save the world. When all you are doing is collecting animals because you can't turn them away, you are doing a disservice to them because you lack the time/money/space you need to give them proper care.


What the media may not have reported on and what the public needs to know, is the double digit numbers of dead animals that were found by Animal Control, and removed from Noah's Ark. There is no reason for this and if anyone has one they would like to try and pass off as valid, I urge them to go ahead and try. "
