Help those in need survive the heat!

For my readers in the West:

In this triple digit heat please make sure all of your pets are well watered with cool water and a cool place to stay. Also please check on elderly folks who often don’t turn on the air conditioning or fans when they’re supposed to. Check on any ‘shut-in” friends, family members or neighbors who might need assistance cooling off.

 

Make sure I get plenty of water. And don't forget Grandma and others who might need your help in this heat. And NEVER leave an animal or human in a car when it is HOT.

Oscar - my gentleman companion
Oscar – my gentleman companion

A true gentleman living in a world full of wonder and delight. His conversations are loud but always entertaining – even when he visits the neighbors who always listen with great humor what he has to say. He is my cat and friend and my gentleman companion.

The ASPCA Challenge: It’s All About Adoption

I adopted all three of my animals (a dog and two cats) at shelters, including “the county pound.” They are the most wonderful creatures  – all happy and healthy and well adjusted. And they are so funny and entertaining!

Summer is difficult for shelter animals because there are SO MANY animals who need homes. Plus the kids are out of school and will have more time to spend with a new pet! It is a win win situation for everyone!
