Sweitzer family story

It is with a heavy heart we tell a story of a man who will never be forgotten in the animal world, or by his loving wife Rachel. Rob was a strong, but gentle man with a conviction for helping those less fortunate. Rob spent all of his spare time helping animals in need, saving hundreds if not thousands of animals that would not have had a second chance. Rob and his wife Rachel were an unstoppable team. The animals benefited from their generosity. However, the entire community has been delivered a hard blow by the loss of Rob.

Rob was a strong, but gentle man with a strong conviction for helping those less fortunate then he. He spent all his spare time helping animals in need, saving hundreds if not thousands of animals that would not have had a second chance with out Rob. He and his wife Rachel were an unstoppable team and the animals benefited deeply from their generosity! The community has been delivered a hard blow and such a great loss!

Honor Rob

One way to help would be honor Rob by opening your home or sanctuary to one more dogs or cats, even though you don't have space, stretch your self or organization to rescue one more life that would otherwise be lost. Name this sweet furchild Rob, Robbie, Bobbi, Robert, Roberta or such. Tell your furry Rob/Roberta about all Rob did for the animals and about all the cat and dog lives that he gave his time, energy and money to save. Tell them that they are alive and being loved because of a very special man who loved and cared for many little ones just like him. If you do this please email your stories to info@casadelosgatos.org and they will be passed on to Rachel.
