A Second Chance

We've all seen them, the cute pets on the billboard for the human society, or on the morning news. First your thoughts are, "Oh what a cute cat/dog" and then your heart sinks and your stomach turns... they don't have a home. My heart goes out to these and all animals every day. I love animals. I love being with them. And I love helping them whenever possible. This is my passion... after my family.

Recently Grace and I went to Petsmart to help Petsamaritan with their dogs potty breaks, while they were waiting to be adopted. We had a great time. All the dogs were very nice and grateful for any amount of love and attention. A few of them were even patient enough on the leash to let Grace walk them out to the potty spot.

At the end of the day, the Petsamaritan staff was very pleased to have had us come. We offered our help any time. They asked if we would be willing to foster any of the animals. There was a cat without a foster home. And they have so many dogs. Well Adam okayed the offer, as long as we didn't have to pay for it... we just can't right now. But the food is donated as well as cat litter. So all we do is provide a good home. We decided to take the cat, and also a dog, since the cat is no trouble at all. We chose a puppy because all the kid safe, older dogs were too big for our kennel. I've posted thier pictures on the blog, they are so great.

It's been two days and all is going fine. Grace has had so much fun with the puppy. She likes to call her Chocolate, or Fluffy. She took her share of breaking in Monet, the cat, as well. We will most likely have them until they are adopted, so if any of you know of anyone who is looking for a pet, I have two! Also any time you can, suggest the Pet Rescue groups... give a pet a second chance.

Ok, enough of that. Have a good one!
