As a society we are so lucky to have local shelters providing home for deserving animals each and every day. In 2020 be kind - and remember those without a voice.
Even if you don't have room to adopt a dog or kitten there are lots of ways to help them find homes - tagging links to your email signature for other people to see available pets is one way. Recommend your local shelter to friends and family looking to add a new pet in 2020. Support your local shelter's activities - whether it is food drives, need for blankets and bedding, or their favorite gift...cash.

For all of those who have shunned hamburgers, meatballs, etc., to support the movement away from meat and factory faming - now have a great solution - Beyond Meat. Tonight, I made lasagna with Beyond Meat. Once the children knew the secret, some said they could tell it was different, others said they thought it tasted better - I couldn't tell the difference.
Today, more than ever, our earth needs solutions. Beyond meat has brought us choices and their stock price reflects how happy people are to have them. It would have been easy to post a photo of a whale being dragged onto a Japanese ship - but I know how much it hurts all of to see those images. But the truth is, as I'm typing right now, whales are dying. Sea Shepherd fights for animals, they fight for oceans - they fight for us.
If you want your children and grandchildren to see images like the one below, then take action. Don't be one of those people that clicks by the outrage going on in our oceans - be one of the people who acts. Because if not, those awful photos of whale hunting will go away - and not because they stopped but because the whales will be gone. Sea Shepherd - Support them today, tomorrow and always. Every time a new, cute pet comes along, the masses follow. Such has been the case with Sugar Gliders and, believe it or not, fennec foxes. When the demand for these animals go up so does the amount of smuggling and deaths from being smuggled. Neither of these animals are domesticated. They are wild animals that deserve to be kept wile.
While all of these critters are adorable as babies, they grow into adults that have their own set of needs and requirements - most of which are not available in a home. Many of these animals are later abandoned on streets and forests when households find they do not have the resources to take care of them. There are so many abandoned animals throughout the country, looking for a home. Be kind and responsible -- avoid exotic pets and adopt. ![]() Stepping into 2019, we are entering an era of change - change in the climate, change in the way our government cares about our resources, change in what our children and grandchildren will be able to see only in books rather than in real life. Each one of us must commit to being a voice. It is time to stop the assault on our earth, and no longer being a passive, tolerant bystander. *Corporations have lobbyists - people have organizations that fight - support them *Find ways to make a difference - support companies that are responsible *Let your voice be heard - sign petitions - contact your local representatives Don't trade our future, our children's future, for the greed of corporations. Don't be quiet at a time when your voice is needed more than ever. Don't think you can't make a difference - because everyone can. ![]() Nov. 29, 2018ELMChicken and Chickpea Recipe Nov. 28, 2018ANFLamb Meal & Rice Adult Formula Nov. 27, 2018EvolvePuppy Formula (Chicken & Rice) Nov. 27, 2018Sportsman’s PrideLarge Breed Puppy Formula dry dog food Nov. 27, 2018TriumphChicken & Rice Recipe dry dog food Nov. 20, 2018AboundChicken & Brown Rice Recipe dry dog food Nov. 20, 2018Nature’s PromiseChicken & Brown Rice Recipe Dog Food Nov. 9, 2018Natural LifeChicken Meal & Potato Formula dry dog food Nov. 6, 2018OrlandoChicken & Chickpea dry dog food Nov. 2, 2018NutriscaChicken and Chickpea Recipe dry dog food Unfit for Humans
Yet Legal for Dog - I decided not to print the list as it is too gruesome to read. The Bottom LineBy now, it’s probably become obvious the pet food industry can be nothing more than a sinister waste disposal vehicle for human food manufacturers — and a way to profit from its own garbage. Look for brands made by conscientious manufacturers who take pride in producing quality products — those designed to enhance and extend the life of your dog. You’ll almost certainly be buying a better dog food.- reprinted from Dog Food Advisor ![]() While many people think of bees as wasps that run after you to sting at holiday picnics and park outings, honey bees are not wasps as all -they are bees who do humans a tremendous service by pollinating our trees and flowers. In addition to that, they provide us delicious honey - which is their surplus food they make, as they too need honey to survive. This photo is of an Asian beekeeping facility. It is literally sucking the honey right out of the hive. Humans keep finding ways to disrupt the natural process of how nature intended things to be. Mother Nature did not expect there would be RoundUp poisoning the ground, she did not expect factory farming of animals, she did not expect her beloved rain forest to be decimated, and she did not expect that her cherished bees would be worked like slaves. Mother nature is indeed a mother - and there is nothing more dangerous than an angry mother.... I have a dream - that someday animals can be treated with respect and kindness - not factory farmed and not mistreated. Gene Bauer founder of Farm Sanctuary in Watkins Glen, NY is helping make my dream come true. This year when 46 million turkeys will be killed, Gene and his sanctuary are helping save a few. So are we - Here are the turkeys we sponsored this year and while we can't save them all - we can save some. We - and you - can make a difference in choosing well-treated animals rather than supporting the horrors off factory farming. ![]() |
