Free Way to Help the Animals

I have a girlfriend who is the most giving person I’ve ever known.  She’s not one of those people who sits around and says, “Isn’t it sad about those poor children in the third world countries?”.  This girl actually does something about it!  She’s dedicated her life to helping people she’s never met. 

I’m ashamed to say that I don’t take advantage of nearly enough opportunities to help.  But, one cause I get behind more than any other is animals.  I’m the kind who sobs at Animal Planet.  If there’s an animal story on the news?  Waterworks.  A lost dog running scared through the neighborhood?  I stop and pick it up every time. 

So, here’s our opportunity to help the animals.  I checked the legitimacy of this site at snopes.com, so we know it has to be real.  :-) 

Go here: http://www.theanimalrescuesite.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/CTDSites.woa  and with one click on the “Help an Animal in Need” button the sponsors on this site give money for food for needy animals.  You can do it every day, and you should.  Its completely free and it’ll make you feel good every time.  Oh, and if you’re thinking about getting a pet, try a rescue society, pound, or the Humane Society.  And as Bob Barker says….  Just kidding!  :-)

    Oh, boy. You make me sound like a saint, when really, this job pays much better than my last one and I get to travel. Sure, my heart is in the right place, but I wish I were a nicer person.
    You should hear me "people watch" at the mall. Then you‘d know how evil I am.
    (I have also been known to take photos of people with mullets — say it with me, moooo lays — and give them to friends as gifts. Although I suppose that is helping humanity in a fashion kind of way…)
