This is an amazing television show that promotes shelter adoptions in the Sarasota / Bradenton area. Our mission is to get as many homeless pets out of the shelter and into loving homes. We are going to feature a different shelter every two weeks, and repeatedly air the shows (think adoption - promoting infomercial) on Channel 21 BLAB-TV in Sarasota.
Shows run Monday 5:30pm.
Gimme Shelter is a non-profit 501-C-3 organization . All airtime is paid for via our proud sponsors as well as donations. We believe if television can work for Carlton Sheets and Bowflex, why not adopting shelter pets!

"Pets in the City"
Our 1st Fundraiser was a blast!
"WOW" I'm BLOWN AWAY! I cannot believe the insane support I received from this community when I began to embark on my very 1st FUNDRAISER! With the assistance of my FABULOUS friend Beth we were able to get together a HELL of a party in just 10 days...that's right 10 days. Beth had the idea to have a party coincide with the "SEX AND THE CITY" movie premiere. You see we have both been HUGE fans from the beginning. I told her that I thought she was crazy..there is NO WAY IN HELL we can pull this off in 10 days..well boy was I wayyyy wrong. Read all about it here
It is with an incredibly BROKEN HEART that I must inform everyone that Lilly passed away recently. I am beyond devastated. Many of my rescue people may remember Lilly from September 2007. There was a desperate call for help to save this precious angel from the Clayton County Animal Services. She was picked up by the lovely (April Landrum Johns) hours before she was to be gassed...yes for those of you that are not aware, they continue to gas and shoot dogs and cats in shelters around the South.
April bathed and took really excellent care of Lilly for a couple of days until transport arrived.
