Thought I would share with you a little about what I do in my spare time. I do some volunteer work for HART, or Humane Animal Rescue Team which is a non-profit organization that goes around and rescues cats and dogs from local animal shelters, and finds homes for them. You can actually get a pretty good deal on a cat or a dog, adopting through HART....pretty much half of what you would normally pay if you went to anywhere else say the SPCA. I know for the cats you can get one for $100 and they come equipped with microchip, spay/neuter, carrier, tags, vaccinations, etc... I go into to the cat center and change the water/litter and food and let the kitties out to romp and scratch on their scratching post for a bit. They love to get out and play! This is a wonderful feeling for me to contribute my time to the little animals and give them a little love. I wish I could take them all home with me, but that is not a feasible option. ha, ha So, I can go to Petsmart and play with all of the hundreds of kitties my heart desires and I never have to take one home. I can sure share a piece of the story with you. Here are some pictures I took tonight, but they change from time to time of course with adoptions. The 2 dark colored tabbys are sibblings part maine coon names are "Snickers" and "Hersheys", the white/grey-spot is a siamese mix named "Purrcee", little orange tabby is "Clementine", and "Oliver" is the one with the white and orange, and the little brown/orange kitten is "Sophia". There was another big kitty that was in a bad mood named "Erik" whom I did not photograph in respect to his morale reasons....and plus I did not want to get my nose swatted off. ha, ha Now you know what I do with some of my time.
