There are some people who are put on this earth to make a difference and Esmerelda is one of these people. I call them Angels without wings!
Esmerelda is on Instagram as The TNR Girl but she does so much more! Of course TNR is vital as the humane way of dealing with cat overpopulation but Esmerelda goes beyond the normal call of duty.
Esmerelda uses her voice to speak out about the injustices animals face each and every day and is constantly working to try and create change for the better. Even her career path is shaped so that she will devote her life to helping animals in any way she can.
In local communities Esmerelda supports caretakers of colonies by finding ways to continue being their lifeline when it comes to food packages and medical care. She does not just help a colony then leave them, she understands that the issues often run deeper and assistance and support is much more than providing TNR.
During the "Crazy Cat Lady" movie Esmerelda was documented and the viewer can follow her day to day life and see first hand many of the issues that she and others who do the same work face. After having to battle the aftermath of the LA injunction it has been left for people like Esmerelda to try and fire fight the damage that has been caused.
You can hear Esmerelda share her story of how she started trapping and helping and what drives her every day and learn more about this injunction and what has or has not been accomplished since its removal.
It was so heart-warming to speak to Esmerelda and by doing so it confirmed only what I already knew, that Esmerelda is a voice for the voiceless, with a pure and true heart. Beautiful inside and out, I wish there were more Esmerelda's in the world and I personally am proud and grateful for her contribution to animals in her community.
Happy Listening!
