Tomorrow starts Animal Shelter Appreciation Week, November 5-11, 2017.
Please let your local animal shelter know how much you appreciate all that they do for the animals in your area. These shelters often need donations, not just money, to meet the needs of those in their care. If you can sew, knit, or crochet, how about making blankets for the crates the animals sleep in? The Snuggles Project and Comfort for Critters both offer patterns for animal snuggles and blankets.
If your local "shelter" is a kill shelter, do what you can to get it changed to a no-kill shelter. Contact local officials and let them know your thoughts on the matter.

That sounds like a great book. I would love to start a rescue, although I think it would be more of a sanctuary because I can't part with anything I have cared for.
ReplyDeleteI think it will be a very interesting book. I understand your thoughts. I wouldn't be able to give them away either. You take care of them, nurse them along the way. They really become your babies.
