The "HEAT IS ON" so get your pets FIXED!

Did you know that "FREE TO A GOOD HOME" could be a death sentence?

Free kittens can be a meal for someones pet snake! Beware if they offer to take them all!
Free puppies can be used as bait for fighting dogs or end up in less than humane conditions. Some individuals get these "free to a good home" puppies/kittens and turn around and try to sell them at local "flea markets". If you have been to the Ripley's flea market in the back area you will find so many that didn't end up in a good home or even clean, humane conditions! There are also some collectors that are getting "free" pups, dogs kittens and cats from Craig's List and newspaper ads. They bring them to local Flea Market and then sell them to anyone who wants them and they don't care what they want them for. Fighting dogs - Bait dogs? Research? Some that aren't sold that day are just dumped off in the woods to fend for themselves. Don't let your "free" pet go to these individuals!!!!

THINK ABOUT THIS!
IN MISSISSIPPI, 73,000 PETS ARE PUT DOWN EVERY YEAR.

In Mississippi, 109,000 homeless pets enter shelters each year....73,000 are put to sleep, thousands more suffer in our streets. As difficult as it is to do, healthy, good-natured dogs, cats, puppies and kittens, are put down at an alarming rate. Mississippi shelters can't save and support the huge number of accidental litters, strays and family pets brought to the shelter door everyday.
YOU CAN REDUCE THESE NUMBERS BY SPAYING AND NEUTERING YOUR PETS!

I RESCUED A HUMAN TODAY!

Her eyes met mine as she walked down the corridor peering apprehensively into the kennels.
I felt her need instantly and knew I had to help her.
I wagged my tail, not too exuberantly, so she wouldn't be afraid.

As she stopped at my kennel I blocked her view from a little accident I had in the back of my cage.
I didn't want her to know that I hadn't been walked today.
Sometimes the shelter keepers get too busy and I didn't want her to think poorly of them.

As she read my kennel card I hoped that she wouldn't feel sad about my past.
I only have the future to look forward to and want to make a difference in someone's life.

She got down on her knees and made little kissy sounds at me.
I shoved my shoulder and side of my head up against the bars to comfort her.
Gentle fingertips caressed my neck; she was desperate for companionship.

A tear fell down her cheek and I raised my paw to assure her that all would be well.
Soon my kennel door opened and her smile was so bright that I instantly jumped into her arms.
I would promise to keep her safe.
I would promise to always be by her side.
I would promise to do everything I could to see that radiant smile and sparkle in her eyes.
I was so fortunate that she came down my corridor.
So many more are out there who haven't walked the corridors.
So many more to be saved.
At least I could save one.

I rescued a human today.

Our Waggin' Tails Rescue Rally was a HUGE success!
