Yay for Julie Buckland being in Albuquerque The Magazine! Did you know? ⬇️
😺Julie and Albuquerque Animal Welfare were Catopia's first shelter partner when we opened in January 2019! Some people were skeptical about the success of a cat cafe in Albuquerque, but Julie believed in us and we couldn't have opened without her. Our partnership has resulted in over 1,100 AWD adoptions through Catopia so far! 🎉
😺Julie is instrumental in so many programs with AWD that benefit animals! Read this article to learn about some of them👏
😺Julie also works with Street Cat Hub to help their efforts with Trap-Neuter-Return to decrease the homeless animal populations and the suffering. Follow Street Cat HUB to see a video of her and Street Cat Hub's founder Jayne Sage. You will learn about the amazing progress these trailblazers have made! 🥳
😺Julie recommended our vet tech, Jennifer, who has been working with us at Catopia every week since we opened to ensure the best health of our kitties! 🩺
😺On a personal note, Julie is responsible for one of our owners' adopted cats! Xanthippe was one of the first AWD cats to come to Catopia and has had the happiest home ever since! 💙
😺Julie is an all-around amazing, kind, hardworking, knowledgable, incredible person. Catopia is super grateful for the opportunity to know her and to work with her 🐾
