This coin was given to Barbara Phillips, a volunteer with Angel's Wish Trap Neuter Rescue Foundation, which has had, as of January 28, 2021, 480 cats rescued, given medical care and placed in homes. By her selfless devotion to the cats that are part of this organization, Barbara more than deserves recognition. She puts countless hours into loving and caring for these helpless cats. Additionally, she has contributed financially to their needs. Barbara is a true angel.

This coin was given to Jenny, the manager of a "man camp" complex south of Watford City, North Dakota, in the middle of the Bakken Oil Fields. She was concerned about the number of strays in the camp, and contacted me to rescue them. In just the first 5 days we have trapped 6 cats and 1 skunk. All cats have been fixed and rehomed. Skunk was safely released. Jenny is another true hero.

I passed this coin on to Ashleigh, who bottle-fed four kittens from two separate litters. Unfortunately, none of the kittens lived, but she gave them so much love and care while she had them. She has also been proactive in getting the word out about the abandoned cats in our community. With her help, I have trapped two male cats. They received medical care, were neutered and now have a home on a local ranch, where they are safe and protected while they keep the mouse population in control. Ashleigh is a true hero.

I received this coin from our local veterinarian because of my sponsorship of a Trap-Neuter-Return program we are collaborating on for the stray cats in our area. I have not yet passed the coin on, but am on the look-out for a worthy recipient.
