The Creation of Shiloh Sanctuary

You might ask Why a Sanctuary in S. Korea?
S. Korea is a Beautiful Country filled with great natural and architectural beauty. Their society is both progressive and rich in traditions. They are technologically advanced, creative and have an incredible work ethic. Politically the government is strong and progressive.
While many of the young people of S. Korea has discovered the joys and responsibilities of having pets in their lives. Sadly, many of the older generations are still part of the culture that did not see cats and dogs as companions.
While the government has come out against the consumption of domestic animals, It has not been banned. For this reason and for many others there is a great need in S. Korea for Sanctuaries, as there is in most countries.
When AnneMarie came to S. Korea she saw many animals in need and stepped in to help. She helped rescue and find homes for many cats and dogs in her early years in S Korea. As she continued working in the country, she never ceased her efforts to help save the cats and dogs. Obtaining the medical care they needed, and finding them loving homes whenever possible.
Unfortunately, animals with chronic health conditions rarely find adopters. The sheer cost of their medical care is beyond the budget of many would be adopters.
Over time it became apparent there was a great need for a sanctuary for cats. Consequently thirteen years ago AnneMarie decided to concentrate her efforts where they were most needed. and Shiloh's Sanctuary was born.
Many of the cats she helped were ill with chronic health conditions and could not find adopters. Consequently, without ongoing care, their conditions would have led to slow, painful deaths on the streets of S. Korea.
In S Korea as in most countries, cats don't receive the support that dogs garner so easily. Many within the sanctuary are medical special needs cats, that consequently require considerable veterinary care. While we have wonderful Veterinarians, the care needed is expensive and we are grateful for the kind donors and sponsors who help us meet their needs.
Our goal is to give the cats within the sanctuary the quality medical care they need. So that they can live out their lives happy and content with their feline family.
