The NAIOP Eagle Award

one half century of caring and progressIt is with great anticipation that we look forward to an entire year celebrating our

50th Anniversary with our community. The passionate work started by Thelma and Colonel Edmund Evans in 1965 continues to this day. Perhaps it is because their vision was so clear that all of the programs they started—low-cost spay/neuter, adoption and Lost & Found services, humane education, and legislative initiatives—are still very much a part of our organization.

The Anti-Cruelty Federation of New Mexico was founded in 1965 at the Evans’ kitchen table on 2400 Morrow Road NE. The earliest activities focused on providing a Lost & Found service and cruelty investigations. Stray dogs were boarded at local veterinary kennels until the organization moved to our current location at 615 Virginia Street SE in 1969. From the very beginning, Ed focused on legislative initiatives to improve the lives of animals in our state, while Thelma’s passions were spay/neuter programs, adoptions and humane education.

Providing spay/neuter services has been a constant priority. Our fi rst initiative was a rebate program started by Thelma, which paid $25 to any pet owner presenting a receipt for “sterilization.” Adopted pets went home with a spay agreement, with the services outsourced to local veterinarians. In 1977, a generous bequest from the estate of George C. Whittell enabled us to build our Veterinary Clinic, which provided veterinary care to shelter animals. In 2007, our Clinic was renovated and low-cost spay/neuter services were made available to the public in addition to all shelter pets; services for feral cats began in 2008. Fifty years and thousands of spay/neuter surgeries has made a difference! In 1975, it was estimated that there were 50,000 – 60,000 homeless pets in the City of Albuquerque. In contrast, in 2014 intakes city-wide (between the two CABQ shelters and Animal Humane combined) have plummeted to 26,500 and our combined Live Release Rate is a commendable 87%.

Finding perfect homes for homeless pets has been another key mission. In the early years, the adoption and Lost & Found programs were 100% volunteer-run. Today, we are able to hire highly trained full-time employees to run these and many other vital programs. We recently spoke with 98 year old Evelyn Blisard who volunteered for 8 years and was given an award for her service by Thelma and Ed in 1991. She devoted her time to our Lost & Found program, performing adoptions, as well as training and supervising volunteers. Evelyn remembered her time at Animal Humane as the best years of her life. Sadly, Evelyn passed away in January.

Our adoption policies have evolved as well. When Thelma was running our shelter, homeless pets were given three weeks to fi nd a home before they were humanely euthanized. In Thelma’s view, this was only fair so that the maximum number of animals were given the opportunity for adoption. Today, we have no length of stay limits. In the 1980s, neither the City nor Animal Humane adopted out pets during the Christmas season, no black cats on Halloween, and no Pit Bulls due to the concern they would be used in fi ghting. Today, we delivered newly adopted pets on Christmas Day, adopt cats out regardless of the holiday or myth, and adopt out over 1,500+ Pit Bull-type dogs annually, our state’s third most popular breed.

Other programs that have excelled through the years include our humane education programs, currently called Learn Humane, and our youth summer program, Camp Humane, which was Camp-Love-a-Pet in an earlier iteration. In the late 1990s, we also had a Junior Humane program.

Over our 50 years, we were either fundraising to build or building better housing for our pets and programs. This constant drive to improve, expand and upgrade our Virginia Street Campus has seen us evolve from our original brick “Heritage Building” bought in 1969 on 2 acres to our current post-Project Humane 4-acre campus with 10 buildings. With fi nal renovations underway to improve the Mary Claire Bachechi Learning Center and to expand our Clinic into the Heritage Building, we will be ready to deliver on our Mission into the next half-century. We look forward to you joining us in this next life-saving chapter for Animal Humane and New Mexico’s homeless pets!

Peggy Weigle, Executive DirectorPeggy Weigle

our beloved book ladyIn 1988, Sandia National Laboratories lost an amazing employee to

retirement, but Animal Humane gained a life-long friend and volunteer!

Margaret Hawk had been a donor for years, but after seeing a bulletin in

the Sandia Daily News looking for volunteers for a pet therapy program,

she knew she wanted to be involved. Started by Colonel Edmund Evans,

our pet therapy program would bring shelter dogs to people in hospitals,

prisons and nursing homes as a means of support and compassion.

Margaret and her rescued dog, Abby, immediately fell in love with

volunteering.

Six years later, Margaret trained to be an adoptions counselor. She

worked directly with Thelma Evans, whom she says was “a very nice

person. Thelma knew how things should be run—she was in charge.”

Margaret worked evening hours in our adoptions offi ce, alongside her

niece, Carrie.

Eventually, Margaret made her way over to our Thrift Store, where she

has been volunteering consistently for over 20 years. Margaret is one

of our infamous “book ladies” who dedicate many hours a week to sort

through and organize book donations. Of the many roles Margaret has

performed for Animal Humane, this has been her favorite. You can fi nd

her at our Thrift Store every Monday and Friday. She starts sorting at 11

a.m., and does not leave until she is done.

Margaret has witnessed fi rsthand Animal Humane's evolution through

the years, and loves seeing all the great changes we have made and the

lives we have saved. When asked why she has stayed with us for 27 years,

Margaret said, “I just enjoy it! I enjoy the people I work with very much,

and I think that everybody needs to contribute in some way.”

Melissa Jackson, our longest employeeI started working at Animal Humane on September 5, 1998. I

applied for a “working with pets” ad in the newspaper. It’s been 17 years and I still love my job. It’s great to know that I’m able to do something good for homeless pets every day. Plus, I can only adopt so many, and those that I can’t adopt I can take care of until they fi nd new loving homes!

John Merritt, Executive Director 2004-2006 Through Thelma and Edmund Evans’ hard work, and the

work of those who came after them, Animal Humane has

been the premiere animal welfare organization in New

Mexico for 50 years, helping thousands of pets and people.

In its 50th year, Animal Humane, its staff, volunteers and

supporters is to be commended for following their vision and

expanding the organization in ways that the Evans never

imagined.

long-time volunteer, Nancy Wilkins From humble beginnings

in the Evans’ living room, to a state-of-the-art animal shelter, Animal Humane has made a signifi cant difference in the lives of thousands of dogs, cats, and families in New Mexico. I am proud to have been a volunteer with many ‘hats’ over the past 40 years (and more to come!) and witness to our extraordinary transformation and impact. If I was a homeless critter today, I would want to come to Animal Humane for my second chance for a loving family!

We helped 3,921 homeless pets fi nd loving new families and returned 226 lost pets to their owners through our Adoption program.

We transferred 1,550 at-risk pets into our care from 15 overcrowded rural shelters statewide through Project Fetch. A 22% increase over 2013!

We cared for 1,144 infant and adult pets in need through our Foster Care program, thanks to the help of 235 foster families.

We helped 408 families learn how to have happier, healthier relationships with their pets through 95 Train Humane classes, in addition to saving 65 shelter pets with comprehensive Behavior Modifi cation programs.

We distributed 104,476 pounds of pet food to 2,260 families through 7,193 individual visits to our Pet Food Bank.

We were supported by 467 passionate Volunteers who provided 48,998 hours of service—the equivalent of 24 full-time employees.

We provided 895 vaccinations, 1020 microchips and 503 spay/ neuter surgeries to pets through our ASPCA Partnership, in addition to serving 303 pet owning families at Pet Health Fairs and events.

2014 Adoptions Employee of the Year:Angelica Maldonado!

Animal Humane is lucky to have a group of passionate pet lovers that comprise our spectacular Adoptions Team. Every day, they work diligently to fi nd the perfect homes for each of the 140+ homeless pets in our daily care. In addition to being excellent matchmakers, they manage our Admissions program, work on our Behavior Team, run our Foster Care Program, and oversee our Retail operations and our Satellite and Mobile Adoptions activities. Once a year we recognize one of these stellar individuals as our Top Adoptions Advisor for placing the most pets in loving homes. Please join us in congratulating Angelica Maldonado for fi nishing 2014 with a massive 263 adoptions! This is the second year in a row that Angelica fi nished in our top spot. We are grateful for Angelica’s hard work, and for our entire Adoptions Team for their ongoing commitment to our life-saving mission!

quality veterinary care for everyoneVeterinarians in private practice are often forced to face diffi cult and emotional challenges when owners present an ill or injured

pet and cannot afford the treatment that is necessary to save their pet’s life. These caring doctors work hard to compromise by

providing alternative, less expensive (but potentially less effective) treatment options. They use their intuition and experience to

gamble on a diagnosis because they skip medical tests that owners cannot afford. They may have to recommend euthanasia for a pet

who is suffering, even if the pet could be cured with treatment that owners do not have the fi nancial resources to cover. Sometimes

the reality is that owners are forced to forego quality and necessary treatment due to their fi nancial constraints.

But here in New Mexico we have a unique resource: Animal Humane New Mexico. Here, my heart does not have to break having

an owner forego quality treatment solely because the cost of care sits outside their budget. At Animal Humane, there is always

another option.

This is the reason I come to work every day: because pets should not have to suffer because of the fi nancial constraints of their

owners. I am so grateful to be a part of an organization that provides a high standard of care, a full range of medical services, quality

surgery and life-sustaining, relationship-sustaining treatment to both

homeless and owned pets needing veterinary care. Everyone deserves a

chance to maintain their cherished pet's health and happiness, even if

they need a little help to do so.

Of course, the bigger and necessary picture is to foster more responsible pet ownership and to help end the overpopulation and homelessness of pets. Our Clinic Team gratifyingly plays a role in this mission too: through our low-cost preventive health services, our large scale spay-neuter efforts and our mandatory sterilization rule for pets. We are working hard to

prevent unwanted litters and maintain the health of beloved pets… and

we thank you, our devoted donors, for granting us this amazing privilege.

necessary for treatment.

beyond our lifetimes… It’s hard to remember a time when pets have not been members of our household. Usually, we have had at least one dog and one cat—often more—to share our lives with. Most of them have been rescues, and we have a special affection for them.

Maybe it is our imagination, but they do seem to bond with us—and we with them—in a special way. In fact, our previous dog, Greta, actually picked us out by reaching through her cage and grabbing and holding John’s leg with her paws. How could we say no? Our newest dog, Miloh, is young, boisterous, and has quite the personality, yet he shares an uneasy truce with our geriatric cat, Bella.

We have been so pleased to have been involved with Animal Humane for many years as donors and adopters. When Kris joined the Board of Directors, our involvement increased considerably, which we consider to be a blessing to us. Animal Humane is doing such important work and does it with clarity of mission and exemplary effectiveness. Animal Humane not only meets the most basic needs of these special homeless pets, but through their comprehensive care, they attend to their physical, emotional and behavioral needs too, enabling cats and dogs to become ‘perfect pets’ for their new families.

Recently, we reviewed and updated our estate plans. In doing this, we considered which organizations we would like to include in our bequest planning. Animal Humane’s strong and important mission, its history and ethic of effectiveness, and our identifi cation with the organization and its people made it clear to us that it should be included in our estate. Now we know that we can help them to continue to achieve their mission beyond our lifetimes.

— Kris & John Stichman

Stumpf, Senior Director of Development & Marketing at 505.938.7888 or [email protected] for further details. We welcome the opportunity to discuss legacy gift options with you.

PNM continues to serve the needs of New Mexico’s people and pets!

In addition to fi nding homes for thousands of homeless pets a year, 700+ families come to Animal Humane seeking additional support to keep their pets in their homes. Our Pet Food Bank helps struggling individuals and families by nourishing their pets. PNM is supporting our vital program by providing funding through their Reduce Your Use Grant program. Their critical support will pay for the energy effi cient lighting, insulation and heating for our food packaging and storage area for this valuable program, which serves some of the most vulnerable residents in our community. In addition, PNM is replacing two of our aged refrigerators, to help us continue to reduce our carbon footprint. We are grateful for the ongoing support and partnership of PNM Resources Foundation, and the great benefi t their support provides to our community!
