Rescue on Sunrise Mountain

We’re feeling very lucky and believe that 2010 will be a great year for us. You see, we had a good Samaritan named Jason Simpson who contacted the Las Vegas Valley Humane Society about us being left on Sunrise Mountain tied to a pole. Three weeks ago, Mr. Simpson contacted Animal Control, but we got away from the officer who came to pick us up. We were so scared that we ran and headed for the canyon. We found a nice hiding place that even had a mattress for us to sleep on at night. Mr. Simpson would watch us come to his place for food before we would run off again. We were so hungry and took the food, but were too afraid to let him touch us. He even searched until he found our mattress. When Mr. Simpson saw that Animal Control was unable to get us, we guess that he contacted the Las Vegas Valley Humane Society. The next thing we knew there were volunteers with two traps and some good food to entice us.
Bab went right in the trap, but I was so afraid. I saw her get caught so I headed back up the mountain alone. I looked back. She was my best friend and she was gone. I decided to go back and see if maybe she came back. Those volunteers fooled me with a bunch of chicken and I was in the trap. Bab and I snored in the car that took us to boarding. We were finally warm. It was two days before New Year’s.
