Re: YOU - helping animals!

Hey everyone, this is an amazing thread! So here is my little bit.

I have built my 4 piggies a huge home to live in.

I inform people at work about this website and C&C cages.

Working at a pet shop at the moment is very frustrating for me but I try and do my bit by informing people what they should and should not do with their pets. Including not buying treat sticks, runner balls, harnesses etc and what they should be feeding them. On many occations they have gone to get their pets from the local rescue instead of the stores.

I rescued my last piggy.

I have cut down on the amount of meat I eat, and sourse them from local farms.

My family in Austrailia have reciently got 3 guinea pigs and I have given them this website.

Further a field I help educate travellers who go to more unusual destinations. These mainly include rainforests which are disappering from human intervention. Madagascar is where I do my work, i have visited 2 times before and am going next year to update the latest Madagascar travel guide which is not only read by travellers but also the malagasy people themselves. Most are unaware of the unique fauna they have in their country and have slash and burned most of the countries rainforest so that there is only 5% of forest left. These endemic animals deserve a chance and that is what I do by informing the world of whats out there.
