HappyThanksgiving  

     

     We would like to send a very Happy Thanksgiving wish your way! Your outpouring of condolences after the loss of my Dad was overwhelming. The sympathy cards, flowers, donations to care for his cat, Blackie, has been most appreciated.  As we continue to care for our Mother and the pets in our care, please keep us in your prayers. 

      Prayers are also needed for those devastated by the tornadoes in the last few days. Our hearts are with them.  

     We would especially like to give thanks to our wonderful friends who make saving innocent little lives like Ben and Becky possible.  We simply couldn't do this without you. A BIG THANK YOU!

 

Have a Happy Blessed Thanksgiving,

 

Linda York, President

 

 
JUST in November 4th!
Becky, Ben and over twelve-hundred others have been saved because of YOU!

Farewell Dear, Dear Friend

    We are sad to report we have lost one of our longest long-time friends. Bev Mueller was our photographer and supporter for seventeen years.   
     Bev won countless awards for her photography skills. The picture on the left shows some of her skills.
    Sadly, the last of our "six pack", Festus, (with a hat on, sitting next to the cart) passed away two weeks before Bev. Being a stray, we were never sure of his age but guess he was around 17 years old.
   Farwell DEAR friends, till we meet again.

Adoption Updates!

 

  

 



Farrah was adopted, now called Sala....HURRAH!

Maybe this will brighten things up a bit: Sala now has the following commands down cold: Sit, Down, Stand, Come, Watch Me, Spin, Hop up (in the car, on the couch, on playground equipment, etc), Off, Leave It, Wait, and even goes down a slide on command! Holy Moly!

 

Hope this week's better for you.

 

Take care and thanks again for saving our girl for us!

One of our rescue dogs recently was diagnosed with this parasite. Since it is not seen too often (in my experience anyway), I thought I'd share it.

NEW YORK (AP) -- There's extensive evidence that pigs are as smart and

sociable as dogs. Yet one species is afforded affection and respect;

the other faces mass slaughter en route to becoming bacon, ham and

pork chops.

 

Seeking to capitalize on that discrepancy, animal-welfare advocates

are launching a campaign called The Someone Project that aims to

highlight research depicting pigs, chickens, cows and other farm

animals as more intelligent and emotionally complex than commonly

believed. The hope is that more people might view these animals with

the same empathy that they view dogs, cats, elephants, great apes and

dolphins.   

 

 

"When you ask people why they eat chickens but not cats, the only

thing they can come up with is that they sense cats and dogs are more

cognitively sophisticated that the species we eat -- and we know this

isn't true," said Bruce Friedrich of Farm Sanctuary, the

animal-protection and vegan-advocacy organization that is coordinating

the new project.

Your dog will LOVE this GREAT company. Here's what they had to say:

 



Hi pup-saver!

 

You got it - November and December are the easiest months to raise money for your organization with BarkBoxes! They make great gifts for the pup of the house. We want to make it even easier, so you can raise as much money as you can this month.

 

Here's the plan:

Thursday, November 28th to Monday, December 2nd

(Thanksgiving to Cyber Monday)

In addition, we'll also be donating an extra $500 to the organization with the most redemptions over this period.

Special Thanks!

    A special shout out to Henry who built some cat trees for our kitties. It was so sweet of you to spend the time making them. The cat trees are awesome!
    Late this evening we found out a cat tested positive for rabies only two miles from Pet Pals. The family cat attacked the husband and he had to strangle it to remove it from his arm. Now the cat is dead and the man has to start rabies shots.  Getting the cat a simple ten or fifteen dollar rabies vaccination would have prevented this.... how sad.
   I would also like to give a special thanks to our dear friends who have been so patient when e-mails go unanswered and phone calls are slow to be returned. I think the WORLD of you.... just not enough time to sit here at the computer. You're welcome to take care of my Mother!! ;-)
