Anne Smith

When asked why she became a member of Bideawee's Flora Kibbe Society, Anne Smith said:

"Domino, a tuxedo cat, and Hannibal, a tabby cat, and I met 28 years ago when I first visited Bideawee. I had just moved to NYC and I wanted to continue having animals in my life. After researching and then visiting several shelters, I saw that Bideawee was clearly an exceptionally responsible and caring home for rescue cats and dogs.

Through the years, the amazing volunteers continued to help me by introducing me to my next generation of feline friends: Charlie and, then, Sophie. Currently, Bud and Petey and I are a happy threesome. For this, I credit Bideawee and the knowledgeable volunteers. The Kibbe Society is one small way in which I can give back to Bideawee for all they have given me."
