Line 2 - Jami Hirstius operates Pampered Pets Bed and Breakfast under a lease for the non-exclusive use of buildings, grounds and facilities located at 6213 Airline Drive. The building rent can be divided and paid separately by Pampered Pets and Metairie Humane. However, the building utility meters (gas, water and electricity), telephone and staff are in the name of Pampered Pets and cannot be paid separately. Therefore, Pampered Pets pays 100 percent of the bills and is reimbursed by Metairie Humane at a fixed monthly rate with a lookback at the end of the year to adjust the equitable split. Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 2 Joan (Director) and Harold (President) Delahoussaye are married. Joan Delahoussaye is also the mother of the 2 gentlemen that lease a non-exclusive right to use the building, grounds and facilities located at 6213 Airline Drive to Metairie Humane to conduct rescue and shelter operations. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b The Secretary and Vice President will review the Form 990 for approval. A copy will be provided for information to the President and Director. Due to severe medical conditions, the President and Director are not involved in day to day operations, and cannot review complex documents such at Form 990 in a timely basis. Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19 Records were available upon request. However, no one requested to see the records during 2023. Form 990, Part IX, Line 11g Veterinary Services. Refer to Part III Line 4a Form 990, Part IX, Line 22 Also Part IX - Line 24c, and Part X - Lines 2 and 10a - We did complete Hurricane Ida repairs in 2023. We also had to replace the used minivan previously acquired. There were electrical and computer problems after Hurricane Ida that could not be identified and fixed by mechanics without a substantial investment. Without these repairs, the vehicle was unreliable and would stop running at any time. Bridge House, another 501(C)3, was the only organization that would take the non-operable mini van without charging us to tow it away. We received no value for it. We used funds accumulated in 2022 to purchase a low milage, large, used transit Van. It not only provides reliable transportation to support our day to day mission, but also will provide us with a way to evacuate in-house dogs for future major hurricanes. This is a more cost efficient hurricane back up plan than purchasing a built-in backup generator large enough to service both buildings. Also, the transit Van has potential resale value to Metairie Humane, whereas, the built-in backup generator would have to remain with the building at the end of the term of the lease with no residual value to Metairie Humane. Form 990, Part X, Line 27 We don't know what FASB ASC 958 says to be able to determine if we are following it or not. We assume we are. IRS approved an extension to filing until November 15, 2024
