While we truly believe that every animal is special, there are some adoptions that stand out for various reasons. If you follow us, you know we like to focus on the positive aspects of what we do. That doesn’t change with this blog entry, but I will try to convey why this adoption is so…
It is with a heavy heart and a tear in my eye that I write this post. Our Ironman passed away in his sleep in the very early morning hours of 7/20/12. We have no idea of his exact age, how he was originally rescued or many of the details of his life. But we…
Sometimes, an animal’s best chance at a normal life involves a drastic surgical procedure. In January 2012, we had the opportunity to improve the lives of two cats with two different issues. Bethany Bethany was rescued by a kind school busdriver that had been watching her walk a young girl to and from the bus…
I’ve posted before about why PeTA doesn’t deserve your money. And I’ve alluded to why the ASPCA and the HSUS doesn’t deserve your money.

We’ve taken in a lot of kittens this year. Mostly from local shelters. Kandy is one of those that we took in … She arrived at a shelter at just a few days old with her two siblings – their eyes weren’t even open yet. A volunteer bottle fed them for a few days and…
No doubt you’ve heard about the miracle dog Patrick, right? I was going to provide a link to his story but there are too many … you’ll get tons of choices if you do a web search for “patrick miracle dog”. Anyway, long story made short: Patrick was nearly starved to death, thrown in a…
So, I haven’t posted a “real” blog entry in a long while … to be honest, blogging is not something I enjoy doing. I prefer FaceBook posts and even Twittering/Tweeting … it’s faster and I just feel more connected that way. But, I’ve got something to say and it’s going to take a lot more…
