    You are certainly welcome here. There are people here willing to discuss all sorts of issues, you will find that it is a wide-ranging group, but pretty unified on some things - declawing being bad, adoption being good, and what we all DO have in common is the love we have for pets - ours and others. There are individual forums set up for DOg Rescue, for example, where transport requests often go, for Cat Health, peruse a bit, okay?

    My current pet, by the way, is Miss Hoppy - she's the little brown bunny you see as my avatar.

    Welcome! You'll find a very diverse population here of animal lovers. I myself am involved in cat rescue and am a dog trainer on the side

    I have 5 tabby cats and a huge mutt who is queen of the catnapper castle.

    Please tell us about yourself!!

    My husband and I have 8 rescue dogs and are heavily involved in transport (we drive and I coordinate) and getting animals out of shelters and into rescue. Over the last 5 years, we have probably saved about 1000 animals from being killed. I work with many rescues all over the Midwest and East Coast. I am with you on the de-clawing thing and spay/neuter has GOT to be taught. I am also deadset against docking and cropping of tails and ears. So, there you have it...I'm a fruitloop when it comes to this!


    Don't buy while shelter dogs die!!

    I cannot tell you how wonderful this is to hear ppl voicing their opinions on issues of breeding, cat declawing and docking etc...
    as the site that my friends and I have been on, censors the posts about these issue so much, because they dont want a HEATED discussion..

    I will definately tell my friends about this place....!!!!!!

    A big hearty Welcome to PT. From what i've read so far about you, I know this will be the perfect place for you.

    Just to let you know a little bit about us. Most of us are against breeders, declawing, docking or cropping, buying dogs & cats from pet stores, and most of all Puppy Mills. There have been many discussions in regards to these topics. We do respect others opinions, but sometimes they do get very heated. But when it gets to out of hand, then our moderator, Karen, will close the thread to keep peace on the board.
    We are all crazy pet lovers, who can never accept when a person says, "Oh it's just a dog/cat/hamster, etc., etc.
    We have many people on here who do rescue work and arrange transport of animals also.

    So stick around, lurk for a while so you can get to know us a little better and enjoy.

    You can see my furkids in my signature and I also have one foster kitten that I rescued off the streets who unfortunately is due to have babies, sometime this week. She is only about 6-7 months old herself.

    Looking forward to hearing more from you and if you can, pictures of your lovely crew would be a bonus.

    Actually, pictures are a pre-requisite!! Only kidding, but we'd LOVE to see pictures of all your furkids.

    I'm owned by 3 furkids and one bald dude (a hairless cat named MooShoo). Moo is my soulmate. All are rescues. 2 from bad breeders I've been in rescue for about 10 years but am currently taking a break from it.

    *jumping up and down* Oh, goody goody goody!!! A new member!!!

    MooShoo,you left me too soon.I wasn't ready.Know that you were my soulmate and have left me broken hearted.I loved you like no other. 1999 - 2010See you again "ONE FINE DAY"
    Maya Linn, my heart is broken. The day your beautiful blue eyes went blind was the worst day of my life.I only wish I could've done something.I'll miss your "premium" purr and our little "conversations". 1997-2013 See you again "ONE FINE DAY"
