Why I Wanted That Quote! :-)

The adoptions are SO SLOW at our Humane Society, it broke my heart!

So I BCC'd a lot of my friends, with the Subject Line "Beat the cold. Wear fur. I am serious..."

(then the email went on to say)

...wear it on your lap, around your neck, on your head, anywhere your new friend finds comfortable!

Thank you in advance for reading this and for passing it on.

What a cute idea! Hope that it draws all kinds of adopters for those beautiful babies!

ROFLOL!!! Great slogan, and I hope it works to find great homes.

P.S....is the cute chunky (Jelly Belly

)"Jellybean" under cats for adoption named after this tail..err..tale?

I want to shmoozle that belly on her.

"Jellybean arrived at the shelter in need of some TLC. She is a sweet girl who is looking for a loving home where she can get plenty of exercise to work off the extra pounds she has accumulated. Jellybean has already lost over a kilogram since coming to us, thanks to diet food & lots of playtime with the volunteers and other cats! Jellybean loves to snuggle, adores people, and will be a rewarding and wonderful companion once she finds her new family."

Its Truly Heartbreaking To Go Into A Pet Food Store And See The Cats There, Big Healthy Cats So Sad That They Are In Cages And Have Noone To Love Them.
What Happened To Our Hapy Homes They Say.
Its Not Our Fault We Got Bigger.

Actually, QSL, after that story of the Jellybean name was on here, I emailed it to all the rescues and HS's I knew.

One wrote back to THANK me - and the Cochrane one used it! I don't know if it is due to the story - but I haven't seen it there before!

I still have a soft spot for Flica, the "little twin sister" to Cole...
