JD's Pet/Animal/Rescue/Adopt thread

I think I may have mentioned I prefer animals to humans 99% of the time. And I won't hesitate to remind everyone to help out rescue and adoption centers. My hat is off to all of you who do, I know who you are.

I am glad to see on the news and social media that there seems to be a growing concern for abused and abandoned pets and more and more people are getting involved with boots on the ground. It is a good thing and long overdue.

I don't know where they came from or when, but it seems we have some new rescues
1. One tiny little kitty with targets er um circles on both sides. She is the quietest and best behaved cat you could want and she loves bacon. She can stay.
2. Can't remember if I mentioned the 2 humongous rabbits that no one bothered to check the sex on and we now have 5, they are fosters.
3. I also just found out we are soon to take in a miniature Arabian for fostering. The pictures of the horse when he/she was rescued was enough to make me want to beat the cr@p out of someone and then do it again. So, everyone is getting together in the next three months to build a fenced in shelter so the horse can be moved here.

Lady, our Mountain Feist Border Collie mix was rescued by us a year ago. She has gained ten pounds since then and is Queen of her realm.

She does like her green ball.

You got to quit sending them balls to us old people. I am just not able to crawl under the bed any more, and of course that is where it always ends up. They still have not broke the thing which is just short of amazing.

,,,,someone left the bacon strip bag open and they dried out. Popped in a Boveda bag and 24 hours later they were OK again.

The Trenton Thunder use a dog instead of a bat boy. Forgot how the new code works, but here is a quick video.https://www.youtube.com/watch?x-yt-cl=85114404&x-yt-ts=1422579428&v=PGKFGo8cIj4

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – February 4, 2015 – Valparaiso, IN – J.J. Fuds in Valparaiso, IN is expanding their recall to include all lots and products of J.J. Fuds Chicken Tender Chunks, Beef Tender Chunks and Duckling Tender Chunks Pet Food because it has the potential to be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes and or Salmonella, organisms which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems.

Took her to the vet for pregnancy avoidance operation and she is sooo sore. Darn good thing we did because she had a sis-tic(?) situation on her re-productive parts. Must have been huge because she looks like she lost about 5 lps. She will be fine in a few days, but for now she wags her tail and waits patiently for me to lift her in and out of my bed.

She gets ice cream tonight.
