This article is about Jeff Bennett. He has flown dogs, cats, rabbits, pythons and more to safety in his small plane. Residing in Key West, several years ago Jeff decided to do something about animal cruelty.
"Bennett really gets riled over stories of animal cruelty, neglect and
abandonment — and, about three and a half years ago, he decided to do
something about it. He started using his small plane to fly dogs, cats
and a host of other critters in dire circumstances to safe places where
they’d receive treatment and care. On Friday, Bennett is hitting a
milestone by flying his 1,000th rescue animal to safety."
"Bennett is affiliated with
Pilots N Paws, a South Carolina-based
organization that whisks “death-row” dogs, cats and other animals to
safety by connecting shelters and animal rescue organizations with
pilots and plane owners. Since Pilots N Paws was founded in 2008, more
than 2,700 pilots have spent their own time and money transporting
thousands of animals all over the United States."
Thanks Jeff! And thanks
Pilots N Paws!
