Tell Me “Happy Birthday” with Fifty-Three Cents

DSC 3242w 173x300 Tell Me Happy Birthday with Fifty Three CentsMy 53rd birthday is on Monday and I’d like to take advantage of that to ask a favor of all my friends, their friends and anyone else that has a heart for animals, PLEASE donate Fifty-Three cents to Lake County Animal Services.

As most of you know (if you know me), I foster for this rescue and they are always hand-to-mouth trying to balance the huge need to rescue with the huge number of animals that need rescued before they are put down through animal control.  LCAS, all volunteers, takes animals from the shelter, spays, neuters, trains and prepares the animals for forever homes– and then holds weekly adoption events in lesser impacted cities for the animals.

And this week the RED LINE is looming scarily. They rescued a litter of 10 puppies that are being neutered and spayed this week along with 10 other dogs (one of which is sweet Miss Stella that is currently in my care).   The bill for this? Over $3,000.00. They need at least half of that to be donated ASAP.

There is always a demand for money, and it is so sad that lives are at the mercy of money. But they are. So if you could donate Fifty-Three Cents to Lake County Animal Services, I’d really appreciate it and consider it the best gift ever because you will be saving the lives of the animals and, as we know, we don’t rescue them, they rescue us.

Thank you, in advance.

PUPPIES!

DSC 3237w 200x300 PUPPIES!Our local dog rescue , Lake County Animal Services, has some very sweet dogs that need homes, and though I’ve stretched the limits of our fur family as far as I can, it is fun to know that I can “borrow” some of that sweetness for a few days.
Here are the two that are visiting now.  One is a boy, one is a girl.  I’ll let you guess from the pictures which is which (because the girl posed, the boy wouldn’t).

The little boy melts my heart by coming up and asking to be held and then sharing puppy kisses.  The little girl is more independent and she was up in my lap when nap time came, two sleeping puppies are an excellent excuse to take a nap myself.

It just didn’t get better than this.DSC 3246 2w 300x200 PUPPIES! Do you have a room in your house and heart for a new family member?  Check out Lake County Animal Services Facebook Page and Lake County Animal Services website, just in time for to share your Holiday.
