But in due time...Anyway give your cutie pies a scratch in the spot and some cat nip or favorite toy for me...

So nice of you to take care of Forest. I am so sorry that he died. I am sure he was the happiest kitty ever. I know what you mean. Will do! I just gave Indy some catnip and am petting Lucky in the "spot". Thanks for posting your thoughts! They are greatly appreciated!

Thank you! That was my thought exactly. Good for your parents! I got my first dog from a breeder. It was a pure bred Samoyed and was named Coco. He was very arrogant and thought that I should listen to him. I couldn't keep him due to allergies. Then we got our two cats, Indy and Lucky (hence my username) from the local no-kill animal shelter. They have been the most grateful, kind, loving, caring, understanding, trustworthy, beautiful, and amazing cats I will ever meet and I am love them infinitely. I will cherish our memories forever. I am so sorry to hear that it was stolen from you! What awful people!! I hope your dog was moved to a nice location. At least it will always hold a place in your heart. Thanks so much for posting. It is greatly appreciated.

We adopted my cat for free from a person who found her stranded in the parking lot. She is the greatest, cutiest, sweetest, cat ever and has the best persinality ever and i love her to peices!

Aw! Thanks so much! That means a lot. This is very true, ones in the animal shelter are very grateful and make great pets. They deserve a home. I bet your cat was very happy moving in with you. Your relationship with your cat sounds like mine with Indy and Lucky. Thanks for posting!

But couldn't they just do that through their wCares program? People would just have to suggest that they sponsor a shelter center

Yes, they could do that, but I think it would get confusing on which money goes to which charity. I think that they would get more benefit if Ganz sold them as a new kind of item. But, I could see this happening also. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Anyone else have any thoughts? ?
