This weekend soss adoption coordinator, Melissa, is attending the No More Homeless Pets conference hosted by the Best Friends Animal Society.

The conference is a great opportunity to learn about the best practices in animal rescue.  The conference started off with a great workshop about cat adoptions (is there anything more difficult?).  The workshops are great.  One piece of advice was to make the adoption form multiple choice to keep people from trying to tell you what you want to hear.

In the evening Melissa stopped by the tweet-up and got to put faces to our hastag heroes. If you don’t follow us on twitter check us out  @sossrescue.

As we look forward to the next 2 days of the conference we are excited about what we can learn and the support we can find here.  It is clear that all of the people here care deeply about animals, coming together like this helps make the support in the community visible.  Thank you Best friends for putting this conference together and providing a partial sponsorship for our rescue.
