Congratulations on the valuable issue of Nov. 5-11 [“Who’s Helping Whom? The Animal Issue,” Xpress], which calls attention to the many good sources of help for animals in our area.
We would like to add a word of support for a facility not mentioned in the issue, namely the Goat Mountain Animal Sanctuary in Leicester, This facility is operated through the dedicated labors of Rob Levy and Pattie Frost. It provides a place for unwanted or disabled animals to live out their natural lives in a safe and caring environment.
Goat Mountain has both a Web page (goatmountainsanctuary.org) and a Facebook page where one can learn more about their mission and see pictures of the residents and facilities. It is worth noting that Goat Mountain, like most similar facilities, operates on tax-deductible donations.
Please consider supporting them so that the compassionate care given to our animal friends at Goat Mountain can continue.
Mike and Wynn Wright
