Abandoned Animals

Re: Abandoned Animals

I agree with you Kani about leaving money for animals and their welfare.
As we have no kids of the two legged kind animals will be our choice.

Thanks for saying they're cute and let me say they're lucky they are!

We were surprised to see their picture included in the May gallery, now
I need to go look at a bookstore and see if they actually made the book
I doubt it but you never know, I'm going to Borders this morning!

Re: Abandoned Animals

Many years ago, the Hawaii Humane Society found a dog wandering Sunset Beach. We adopted her on the "last day". We're on the mainland now, but we still have her. She's 10+ years but still going strong. I hope we can all go back to the islands together!

just wondering? if you knew that the hawaiian humane society publishes a yearly calendar? you submit a photo for a nominal fee and your "kids" are pictured. i did it one year.

Re: Abandoned Animals

Is it okay to nab ferile cats and take them in for spaying/neutering? Does anyone do it for a reduced price? Whenever I see ferile cats, I want to do just that.

Yes we do know about it. Our girl Maggie was Miss December I think in 2000 or 2001, funny I don't remember. Maggie raised almost $14,000.00 in her lifetime (which was far too
short) in the annual PetWalk fund-raiser. Her selection however was random as they all are for the calendar.
Here's something about her http://starbulletin.com/2000/06/22/news/story14.html

and yet one more http://starbulletin.com/2003/08/01/features/story2.html

great stories and pics! i don't see the basenji in her? my oldest girl (18) is basenji/beagle. her head is basenji and her body beagle with the white tipped tail. she can manage one "woof" and that's it.

Re: Abandoned Animals

Neither picture does justice to that part of her lineage but rest assured she
was part, she did not stink for one thing (Basenji's have no odor as they
were used to hunt lions in Africa and lions would know they were around)
and she had the exact yodel and chortle in addition to the ability to bark.
She was one of a kind. She was also on a page a day calendar from Workman Publishing, on KITV news: Gary Sprinkle came and filmed her diving and
swimming, she was a spokesdog for the Kyjen company of dog toys
and in a magazine. I think the only medium she was never in/on was
radio!

Re: Abandoned Animals

i think your post belongs in the, "have you ever met a celebrity (or something like that) thread? lol. my girl doesn't smell either and it's quite funny to listen to her trying to get that one bark out. the rest is the chortle thing.

i'm glad you rescued maggie! and, i'm glad that i saved my girl, too. the old goat. her original parents were moving back to the mainland and couldn't take her with them. oh, well! better for me and my dog. i've had her for 13 years now.
