2 year update

Posted 12-02-2011 at 10:17 PM by mrs1885

I'd forgotten that I even started this blog!!

Well, it's been two years since the last update. The kittens that were posted all wound up in homes one way or another. I did what I could to help. Still hate feeling helpless even though I know the animals I have helped would never say I haven't helped.

We didn't re-home the tortoises, but have for the last two years gone back and forth between what we want, what is best for them and what is best for us. Initially...

In the beginning

Posted 09-10-2009 at 01:25 PM by mrs1885

This blog is dedicated to animal welfare and trying desperately to find some sense of human's 'disposable' attitude towards animals. I'll weave back and forth between our rescue and some of the fosters we have or have had, success stories in placement and the 'failures' we've had, and lastly my grand attempts at getting a shelter established for my county.
