Who me?

I just felt this overwhelming sense of need within my own self the last few weeks. I fill my time with so much STUFF! And I think I am a pretty good "volunteer-er". But, I need something that gives back to me. In a non-selfish way. Something that when I come home, I can say, "I done good here!"

After some soul searching, I have decided to become a volunteer at:




(That is, if they take me!)

I just see these poor animals on Animal Cops, and I see this "poor, rotten" spoiled dachshund who sleeps on my pillow next to me at night (did I mention that in my next life I'm coming back as Lucy?) and I just want to help. I feel my heart being torn when I see abused animals!

So, I'll say a little prayer tonight that they accept my application!

Happy (almost) Friday!

I think that what you are doing is fantastic! I will donate $, run charity races, sign petitions etc. for the humane society but can never volunteer there. I would put them out of business because I would bring every animal there home, I'm that much of a animal lover.

It breaks my heart when I think about the abused animals, puppy mills, katrina pets, michael vick's pets, all those sad things, but it nice to hear someone trying to make a difference. We don't have enough of that in this world.

Yay Terri! :)

Terri, more power to you. It's a great cause. We got one of our kitties from the Adopt-a-pet events at the Zoo which was sponsored by the Humane Society. They are the best folks to deal with and Daisy is a great pet.

AHHH this is fantastic. I think you will really feel a great sense of accomplishment with this and be so contented. Ofcourse, they will take you OR they are nuts!!
