Zoey has really taken to blogging. She asked me to help her create a blog just for and about her and other canines. She says she wants to spotlight dogs like her. So there is no time like the present to start the New Year off with www.Zoeytherescue.blogspot.com
Zoey wants to remind you that there are tons of animals that need a FUREVER home. Also shelters need donations not only monetary but many other items too. She says to take in consideration that there are lots of humans who donate to wonderful, much-needed causes to help humans but there is not enough humans that donate to help save animals.

Best spot
Cartoon repurposed from Face Book page.
Woof, I have to agree. I do grab the comfy spots when I have the urge to snuggle up and relax. You would never know that I have a few of my own pillows around the house!

Mamma found this on her Face Book page and she said it was true. I have no idea what antidepressants are but she said she certainly does not need any with me around. I think it has something to do with our adoration time in the morning. Or maybe it has to do with all the walks we take together. No wait, it is probably due to our snuggle time in the evening. Whatever it is I am thrilled to make Mamma happy!
Woof, woof, till later,

5 Reasons Not to Give a Bunny as an Easter Gift
One Green Planet / Article by Emily Cardiff
1. Rabbits are NOT toys
Rabbits, especially baby bunnies, are fragile and can easily be injured by an excited child just wanting to cuddle. Their bones break easily and the most common ways it breaks occur by being dropped or jerked around. Rabbits are living creatures that need open space to roam and play, therefore, keeping a rabbit locked up in cage that’s sitting on a shelf in your child’s room is inadequate. A rabbit cannot wait for a kid to want to take them out to play. A family must be loving and happy to supervise daily bunny-children playtime.2. Rabbits are not “practice” pets
While most rabbits are smaller than other animals, it does not mean they make good “practice pets.” Joyce Kuhns, lead education and adoption coordinator for Southeastern PA-DE House Rabbit Society says, “Rabbits aren’t pocket pets, they are not low maintenance or low cost … they are very social and interactive. They need daily environmental and social interaction just as a dog or a cat would.” Bring a first pet into your home only after you’ve educated yourself and your family on what it means to be a good pet guardian.3. Rabbits need daily, routine care
Small animals are not low-maintenance and require the same amount of care as other pets. Rabbit care includes providing food, fresh water, clean bedding, daily exercise and playtime, grooming, and routine veterinary check-ups. They require daily exercise in a big indoor playroom or in an area of the yard that is safe from predators, including family dogs and cats.4. Rabbits chew on things
Since many rabbits live indoors, rabbit-proofing your home has to be a priority. From wood furniture and books to shoes and toys, rabbits will chew on almost anything. They will even chew on electrical cords which is dangerous and life-threatening. If you have a free-roaming house rabbit, be warned they can hop upstairs, so either get a chew-proof pet gate or rabbit-proof the upstairs too.5. Rabbits grow up quickly and live a long time
Like any other animal, bunnies grow up fast and may develop special needs or start needing other types of medical care. In general, a spayed or neutered domesticated rabbit has a lifespan of eight to 12 years which means you must be completely committed to being their guardian for at least that many years.See article for information regarding ethical and fun Easter animal ideas.

Easter Lilies are poisonous to cats!
PLEASE REMEMBER Easter Lilies are poisonous to cats! Just one bite of a petal, leaves, the stem, or even the pollen of an Easter lily can wreak havoc on your kitty's digestive system and, if left untreated, can lead to kidney failure and death. And while a common culprit, Easter lilies are not the only type of lily that affects cats; tiger lilies, rubrum lilies, and some species of day lily are also poisonous to our feline friends. So please make it a safe Easter holiday for your kitties!
