Amazon doesn't advise you WHO made a donation??
How are you supposed to *acknowledge* donations?

I think most of us would like to know the Total Amount donated and the
Number of Donors who participated.

I don't mind being a repeat donor - but I'd like to know what the average or median
amount donated was.

I guess Amazon doesn't expect us to ackowledge donations or something. There isn't any "final total" yet, as we are still getting some donations via snail mail, one yesterday, and another today! I don't know about the electronic ones, Paul keeps track of that.

Karen ~ I had a thought after reading your posting about the banana bread recipe. How about if we organize a Pet of the Day (or Pet Talk) book of recipes?

We submit our favorite recipe(s) with our username and a photo of our pets (or ourselves or whatever) and print up a book. The proceeds of the sales would go to keep the Pet of the Day up and running.

The pet calendar website (I can't remember it off the top of my head) might have a template we can use for organizing and publishing a book.

I regret that I would not be able to volunteer to take this on right now, but with all the talented folks here, there are probably some who have experience in a project like this.

Whatcha think?

It was about 200 people, and totaled just under $2,000.

We are always grateful for your support.

I forgot how to donate? Is there a link for paypal somewhere?
