THIS WEEK: Snorters

When I spied this (posted at Pets On The Run) while running errands recently I simply knew I had to post it here. The reasons for this are two-fold:

  1. I know a lot of folks reading this have furkids of the snorting variety.
  2. Having grown-up with an English bulldog myself, Amos, let’s just say I have a fondness for such critters. Amos was not exactly the sharpest knife in the drawer— but that is what made him so darned interesting. For starters, anything that could would invariably find it way into this animal’s mouth (and face certain annihilation). This included (but was not limited to) a great number of my dolls. Being a tomboy (and as such much more interested in Legos and Erector Sets) this didn’t bother me too much.

In all seriousness, this sounds like a lot of fun. Be advised there is a weight limit: 25 pounds or less. For more information about this event you are advised to contact Jen at jenschiffer (at) mac (dot) com. Woof!

Adoptable Cutie: Meet Nellie

I recently recieve a rather disturbing email form my friend Jay at Dog Habitat. He writes:

We also have a female gray young cat that was left in a basket. She’s still here and we will find her a home as soon as we get her checked out by a vet. She’s a clinger- attaches herself to people (literally) so safe bet she had a home but was dumped on our door step. We’ve rescued quite a few abandoned animals in the 11222. Dogs tied to fences or left in the dog park and cats soaking in their own urine after bring unceremoniously stuffed in boxes with air holes cut out. Not cool.

Naturally I had to see this lady— and the container she was left in (which can be seen at left)— for myself. Guess what?

She’s a cutie! Follows is a little footage of this lady while Jay tells her story. Enjoy!

Don’t let her seeming camera shyness fool you: this is one very sweet-natured and gentle gal. Anyone who is interested in giving this winsome lass the permanent, loving home she deserves should contact the folks at Dog Habitat via email at: rescue (at) doghabitat (dot) org. Otherwise I will update this post once Nellie undergoes her check-up and (hopefully) gets a clean bill of health!

Paws crossed,

Miss Heather
