Meet Corinne!
Corinne is being recognized as this month’s special volunteer. As the Co-Lead for RASKC’s Bellevue Crossroads Petco Cat Care Team, Corinne not only works beautifully with all team members, but has also been deemed as the “Volunteer Recruiter Extraordinaire!” Corinne does a fantastic job connecting with prospective volunteers and effectively guiding them through the training process. Her love for taking care of pets goes far and beyond the call of duty, from cleaning a lot of the soiled laundry from cats at the store to working special adoption events and fostering over 19 animals in the course of five years… Corinne is highly valued and appreciated by her peers at RASKC.

In the summer of 2013 I met a wonderful little nine-month-old male Shih Tzu, named Frankie. He was severely abused by being kicked in the face which resulted in his lower jaw being broken in two places and went permanently blind from the head trauma.
