This shelter is trying REALLY HARD to win the $100,000 grant from Pepsi. Only the TOP FINISHER in this category wins and last cycle, they fell short at #2 (which is where they are now again). Please take a minute to vote for them everyday. I've read several posts from them and it sounds like they are in dire need of a new building or they will have to close and hundreds of animals will have to be put to sleep.

It only takes a few minutes to register and vote. Then you can vote everyday. For those of you already voting in the USA version, you have to re-register for Canada's.

I have tried to vote on dial up, but it freezes my computer.
I will try tomorrow at the Library.

It just took me around 5 minutes to vote. Yes...it does seem to be a very slow loading page. Thanks for trying :) Your post made me smile....I wish I could open a rescue too :love: Have you ever seen the video of the cat waking up it's owner with a baseball bat? I'll have to find it and re-post it...so funny...and true.

lol
i just wrote a bunch of stuff and it disapeered from my cat leaning on the backspace bar...lol
i type w/one crooked finger that hurts....lol
oh well.
i will vote....don't you worry.:D
we were out plowing and moving the car so we could get out.
plus we also took monty and jasmine on the leashes out for walks...
10 minutes only...they are very good.2 of my well behaved cats.
i only trust them 2.but only once in a great while.
it was a snowstorm and i knew they'd love it.
the other 16 stay in and look out the window:)
they are so sweet.
thanks for writing.
i'll vote as soon as i can.today.and every day.
i did see the baseball cat one but it has been a very long time...i hope you post it again so we can get a good laugh:D

I just found this one too: (Moon broke the screen to get in once when I left him outside and Bean is an expert on coming to the door but running away when I open it)

What I do is click the link and then let it load for a few minutes before I click anything on the page or it will freeze.

I can't get the site to give me a VOTE button today although I had no problem on the US site. They are still in second place, behind the vacations for dialysis patients. Also on the $100,000 list is a project in Kelowna, BC and I think there is a PTer who lives in that city. Why, oh, why can only one project get the money?
