The Decision on Lawrence the Cat.

Lawrence the cat has now been spayed and is healthy and beautiful.  The problem is that she has been in my home long enough that the family has accepted her as one of our own and she has claimed us as her family.   

Now I am faced with the dilemma of keeping her or not. 

If I keep her,  I no longer have that extra space for foster cats who need a temporary home and I may be leaving out someone who really needs my help.

If I send her on to a new home,  I am breaking her trust and separating her from the family that she has claimed.  She has been separated from two homes that I know of already.  It would hurt her and the rest of our family to do that again.

For now,  Lawrence will stay here with us.  She will only be moving if the right family comes along who will love her as much as we do and if she chooses to go with them.  

Easter Greetings!

I hope everyone has had a wonderful Easter.

I Love this Chick

This is complete cat cuteness.  I know I would not trust my cats with a chick.

I hope everyone has a safe and happy Easter weekend.

For Those Who Will Really Welcome a Bunny into Their Families

Rabbits are not toys that should be given to children for Easter but for families who are ready to commit to a rabbit as a lifetime companion,  there are plenty available from

 http://www.rabbitrescue.ca  
If you must have a bunny,  please rescue one.

Bunnies are Not Toys

Bunnies do not make good pets for children.   They are tiny, cute and delicate.  They don't like to be carried or have their ears pulled by little hands.
Before you bring home a baby bunny for your kids,  consider that they are a commitment for at least ten years.

Easter Toxins and Your Pets

Doesn't everyone love  Easter?    It is a true sign of spring plus we  love the chocolate and candy that comes with it.  
Unfortunately, there are many dangers for our pets that come with the Easter celebration.  
Lilies are beautiful and they smell so sweet but they are deadly to cats.  Everyone who has had a cat knows how much they like to eat plants.   They can't figure out which plants are poisonous until its too late for them.  We, as owners have to choose for them.
Chocolate is also poisonous to dogs.   That Easter bunny hides the candy but sometimes our pets find it before the kids do.  It can be very dangerous.
All the pretty plastic can also be toxic to our pets.  They see something pretty and it may still smell like candy.  Please keep them away from your pets.
Have a safe and happy Easter and keep your pets safe.
