7/31/15 Dogs and Cats Being Bred For Food Consumption in USA. What Will a Nation of Animal Lovers Do? 44 States Allow This. Let Your Voice Be Heard. Write and Call Legislators.

 Research the information to be sure this is true and get the facts. Very  hard to believe with the mega millions the pet food industry is making off our pets, the last thing they must want is this. Not sure which humane society said the following. I don't like to post  info that may not be true but incase this is I posted it. People  in the U.S. are outraged about the Yulin Festival in China. Perhaps people in the U.S. need to take a look at what could be in their own back yard.


"The Humane Society goes on to state that 44 states allow dogs to be raised and sold for meat, with only Virginia, California, Hawaii, New York, Georgia, and Michigan having laws that prevent such practices. Those particular states classify the consumption of dog meat as animal cruelty. Some laws are so unclear that it appears to be legal to sell and consume dog and cat meat. Some puppy mills allegedly sell to butchers around the country!Help stop the practice of raising dogs and cats for meat by asking the federal government to step in. Sign and and share this petition to demand raising and and consuming household pets be considered animal cruelty."

Jonas was found as a stray so horribly matted that initially Jess couldn't tell what sex he was. He needs to be sedated to be shaved down, plus standard vetting. His entire back side is one large mat. Who knows what his skin is like under all of that? He's in pain from the mats...they are so tight.

7/27/15 Help Senior Sulphur Mustang Stallion Get to Sanctuary American Wild Horse Preservation Campaign."This majestic wild senior stallion is today languishing in a government holding pen. We told you about his plight earlier this year."

"This majestic wild senior stallion is today languishing in a government holding pen. We told you about his plight earlier this year. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) rounded up this proud mustang in February 2015 and labeled him "Grulla #3907" for an Internet auction.
Mr. Grulla has become the poster child for all that is wrong with the BLM wild horse program. The 26-year-old stallion lived his life wild and free in Utah's Sulphur Springs Herd Management Area -- but that life was stolen from him. Despite tremendous public outcry calling on the BLM to return him to the wild, the BLM auctioned off Mr. Grulla to the highest bidder -- a breeder in the Pacific Northwest. "

Please help us help Mr. Grulla today.

http://act.wildhorsepreservation.org/o/6931/t/0/blastContent.jsp?email_blast_KEY=1336997

For months, it seemed that this elder mustang was destined to spend his remaining years in a breeding pen. But recently, we received news that the high bidder has reneged! A fantastic mustang advocate who has worked tirelessly to save Mr. Grulla has purchased him and asked for our help.
The Black Hills Wild Horse Sanctuary has kindly agreed to take Mr. Grulla and a friend, another Sulphur mustang, who will travel with him to the 11,000-acre sanctuary in South Dakota. But we need to raise the funds for their transportation and endowment. There, they will join a herd of nine other rescued Sulphur mustangs captured during the same roundup."

7/1/15 Great Idea to Help Shelter Kitties Get Adopted! Kittens Get Adopted at Local Library- New Mexico. Maybe Your Shelter or Rescue Could do This to Help Homeless Cats Find Homes. Watch Video

"The Dona Ana County office building in Las Cruces, New Mexico, has an on-site library, of sorts, where the workers can “check out” a kitten to play with, cuddle with or just sit with while they work, CBS News reports."
