    A Pet of the Day Fundraiser!

    For the past nine years, we have been featuring a new Dog, Cat and Pet story every day. For the first time, we are trying something new. We are having the first (and perhaps only) Pet of the Day fundraiser to help us pay for the Internet hosting and computer-related costs of running the websites.

    We are delighted to bring a little bit joy into the hearts of people around the world each day. If you are willing and able to send us a donation of $10 (or more) to defray the last year's costs, and help us upgrade for the coming year, we would be grateful.

    If you are a child, this message is not for you.

    For general discussion post here, or for specific questions, you can email Paul.

    Please choose donating through Amazon, PayPal, or our postal address:

    Karen Watts
    69 North Street
    Newton, MA 02459-1737

    Thank you very much for being part of PetoftheDay.com. We are happy to do these sites, regardless of the success of this fundraiser.

    I'll do that with my next paycheck which is this coming Friday

    9/3/13
    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.
    [/SIZE]



    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    DONE!!
    In a Heartbeat!

    Can't think of a more worthy cause - this site give SOOO Many of us Soooo Much Pleasure ...
    Helping to cover some of the costs seems only fair.

    Hopefully enough other Pet Talkers will feel the same way - and the costs can
    be easily recovered.

    GLAD to Help out!!

    I am a bit tight on money at the moment between the holidays and Mufasa. However, when the holidays are over and I catch up I will certainly be sending a donation. How long will you guys be accepting?

    You can bet your bottom dollar we will get some funds to you. This amazing community is all because of you and Paul and the least we can do is donate.

    I will have to send snail mail though. Hope that is ok. I will PM you when I send it so you can be on the lookout for it.

    Lilith & Vixen, taken too soon. I love you always.


    Signatures, avatars & blinkies if anyone wants one pm me with color,
    font and background preference and with pics and names of pets.

    Karen, your timing is great ... I got paid Friday ... it's time to send a gift to the shelter from which I adopted Cassie and helping with Pet Talk costs goes perfectly with that ... thank you for asking and thank you for all you do with Pet Talk! I'm one who has gotten much pleasure from the site. Thanks again -- Elyse

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

    Absolutely! A check will be in the mail.

    How could I not? I am on here every single day of the year or just about.

    I would also be very willing the pay a "membership" fee to help pay for those upgrades. Just a thought.

    I'll certainly send a donation for the BEST website there is! It will be snail mail and I'll let you know when I send it.

    Thanks for all you do, Karen and Paul!

    I'm in the same boat as KayAnn. Will you accept a cheque in January?
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!
