Thanking and Thinking Thursday

I sooooo hope all of your motors have been takhh'd down after yesterday's posting! I'm was furry happy to see my idea to khorner the gift market NEXT year has merit!

Of khourse, the bows will be PURPLE!

*******

I would love to show the latest award bestowed upon me and show woo the furry fun and khrazy khanines who passed it along to me!

Please visit The Puppies of Hoadley Drive - please be SURE to see the tekhhnikhal demonstration of destuffing that Opal had khaptured fur training purposes! She soooo has pawtential!

*********

NOW, for some thinking (and thanking too):

To all my furiends out there. We all know the howlidays are khoming. The time of year to give pressies and such. WELL, I wanted to let evfurryone know that since I like to surprise my furiends throughout the year with things that just make me think of them, I've asked Mom to make donations to several of the Siberian Reskhues AND to the 'B&B' I khame from instead of sending gifts this khristmas.

I know I keep hearing Mom say things are really bad out there fur too many families (furry and human) - with some families having to make some furry diffikhult choices. The shelters and reskhues are filling up with pets that khan't be taken to the apartments or shelters the humans have to move into due to loss of jobs and/or houses.

It isn't much but I'm hoping it will be something to help get the groups through some ruff times.

Hugz&Khysses,

Khyra

Khyra, I think that is a splendid thing that you and your Mom are doing...donations to shelters and rescues are just the pawfect gifts you could give! We sure hope the pups there would be able to find their furever homes soon...*crosses paws*

Hope you have a great day!

Hooray for your Christmas giving!
I agree the local shelters are in a bad fix with the excess pets they are getting. (Nice family dogs too)

Another one of my favorites to give to is NEADS and this part I love is
Service dogs for Combat Vets.http://www.neads.org/services_new/military_dog.shtml
Look it up and see if you don't love what they do!

Kisses,
Stella

That is one of the best gifts that you could give anyone. We are all so lucky to have furever homes. It would be great if we could help just a few pups this season.

w00f's Khyra, me thinks that is a pawsome idea..we had thot of giving to a shelter/rescue to celebrate barkdays per month...we not has much money, and when u buy pressies then mail it, it becomes a lot of money...plus, most of us git toys anytime...and we iz well cared fur and loved...sooo many babies out there, arent...

It is extra special that you and your Mom are donating to rescues and shelters. So many folks tend to buy a pet at the holidays without realizing exactly what they are getting into.

Thanks for helping make the pups/cats/and other animals in the shelters/rescues more comfortable.

My wife was at the shelter the other day and she said it was jam-packed. Poor animals.

Steve, Kat, & Wilbur said...

Way to go Khyra!! I think this is a great idea. We all have lots of toys anyway, so it's great that you're donating some instead of keeping all the new toys to yourself.

You've inspired us to donate some of Wilbur's toys.

Khyra, you are your mom are wonderful for doing this. We want to help our furfriends too and will be donating also! Sadie was rescued from a puppy mill in Nebraska and she and another puppy were adopted out but all the other huskies went to rescue places throughout the midwest. Angel and Isabella were adopted from the local shelter. I know how important it is to help those places out.
