This is a series of diaries highlighting animal rescues around the country and noting and celebrating the work they do to help animals who have no voices but ours to speak for them. I have decided to make this a daily series because there are so many wonderful rescues out there who need human help and weekly just doesn't seem to be enough. I have long wanted to start a rescue but lack the resources or time available to do so right now so this is my attempt to do my part. Today's rescue was found while searching for a shelter to help out
ladycat713.
Please see her diary here seeking assistance placing two of her cats. Her landlord is forcing her to do this and she can't afford to move now. I hope they are able to help but they're a fantastic organization anyway. I hope that these rescues will benefit from the kindness and benevolence of the community here at Daily Kos. They are amazing organizations and worthy of Kossack attention and care.
Now that I'm home, bathed, settled and fed
All nicely tucked into my warm new bed
I'd like to open my baggage
Lest I forget
There is so much to carry-
So much to regret. Hmmmm…..
Yes, there it is, right on the top.
Let's unpack Loneliness, Heartache and Loss
And there by my bed, hide Fear and Shame
As I look on these things I tried hard to leave
I still have to unpack my baggage called Pain
I love them, the others, the ones who left me
But I was not good enough - For they did not want me.
Will you add to my baggage?
Or will you help me unpack?
Or will you just look at my things -
And take me right back?
Do you have the time to help me unpack?
To put away my baggage
And never repack?
I pray that you do - I'm so tired you see
But I do come with baggage -
Will you still want me?

Hmmm. Woke up this morning and thought "what a great day to stay in with a good book and cup of coffee". But then I thought about puppy and kitten kisses and hugs and walking with Momma, Pop, Bob, and Georgett. So I am up and on my way to the shelter. How about you? Want some puppy love and kitten kisses? Come on out to the shelter this weekend. We will be open today and Monday 10 AM til 4 PM.

Lap Baby is for adoption. This is a female young pup maybe 4 to 5 months old. Shouldn't get much larger. So loves to sit in your lap and give kisses.We just do not get many of these this young. Great time to get a small house dog. Very laid back and reserved.
