"Drug court grad rescues abandoned pets"

News from Illinois:

Jeff Seafler didn’t need long to think about whether he wanted to take on getting donations for pets left homeless after their owners’ drug arrests, or animals that were abandoned for other reasons, too.

Seafler is set to graduate from Coles County’s drug court program next month and needed a public service project. As it turned out, the Coles County Meth Awareness Coalition was looking for a way to help animals, and coalition President Ke’an Rogers approached him about doing it.

“I liked it the minute she mentioned it,” Seafler said. “I’m an animal lover myself.”
