Here comes the sun, and I say it's all right...
I am volunteering to do something special for an organization here that does fabulous work for animals in our county. They have spayed and neutered thousands of dogs and cats over the last year and I know that it is going to make a huge difference in the No Kill equation here! So I am really grateful for their hard work and efforts and that they allow me to have a small part in that! You can help if you wish by making a donation to these folks: http://www.epaaonline.com/
I am grateful that my son Eli (go eli, love you son)is volunteering at a NO Kill animal shelter over in Belton, Missouri, outside of Kansas City, MO. The apple does not fall so far from the tree no matter how far away the apple is from the tree. If you are looking for some place good to donate a little time or money, I think that HELP humane society in Belton, MO is a good place to give. I will be sending them a little something to show my gratitude. If you feel so inclined, you too can donate here: www.helppets.org
I was grateful when I woke up this morning and had an email from The NO Kill Advocacy center about Oreo's law! It seems that when the NY ASPCA killed Oreo, when he had somewhere else to go, and the world expressed outrage, that a couple of legislatures got together and decided to do something about it. I truly hope this is the beginning of what is going to turn into the Companion Animal Protection Act for NY! OMG if a big city like NY can do it, can Houston? Yes they can. So you can read about this law here: http://www.nokilladvocacycenter.org/pdf/yesonoreoslaw.pdf
Maybe you want to go and write a letter of support for this law?! I know my family and myself will be writing to show our gratitude!
So yeah for today I am grateful and in case you have not done so yet, go over and get you one of the cool ass dog beds: http://www.project71.com/
