Re: YOU - helping animals!

Thanks Salana. After reading this post I realized how much I really want to get involved in my community. Helping people and animals. Your post inspired me to look around town and see what sorts of volunteering opportunities might be available.

As far as what types of things I've done:
-I've rescued all of my animals from a shelter or rescue (1 dog, 3 piggies)
1 of my cats was from a friend's litter. our second was from where we boarded our first. One of the cats had a litter and the babies needed new homes.
-I've spent countless hours building and rebuilding my CC cage so that it is "just-so" and perfect for my piggies.
- I've researched and looked for the right type of food for my piggies
-When I am at home I try to take my dog for 1 or 2 walks daily.
- We also take her to obedience class and doggy daycare
-I try not to buy things from pet stores that sell animals.
- I am a vegetarian
- I also try to go green and I am a recycling freak

I also love all of my animals with a passion that I'm sure only animal lovers can understand.

And I just want to tell everyone great job for everything that they do for animals. I know sometimes I feel like I am not making a difference but to come here and read this post makes me really feel that people can and ARE making a difference in our world, and that there really are people out there that care.
