I was told once by someone I respect and admire, that if you want something badly enough, ask the universe and it might be right there just waiting for someone to ask for it.
With the rain of kittens and puppies lately(11 puppies and 3 new kittens), my list of things I wish I had has grown, quite a bit.
So just for sh*ts and giggles(as my daughter Tizz Musso would say) I'm putting THE list up here.
FIRST
A truck or SUV - she don't have to be pretty, but she has to be running good! Why? Because getting dogs or cats to the vet for whatever reason costs $50-60 each way. Picking up a dog or cat that needs help can happen a lot faster if you don't have to be looking someone to take you on a rescue mission. Tiny ones can travel on the bus with me in their carrier for $2.25, but big dogs are another story. Picking up chow or building materials sometimes costs more than what you are picking up, when you have to pay someone to do it. So, yes...I'm asking the universe if there is someone who wants to get rid of an extra work truck or suv.
SECOND
A small freezer to store neck and back when it's on sale. Feeding them chicken parts and rice instead of chow, would drastically cut down on the feeding costs, our biggest recurring expense.
THIRD
Ask they said, you never know...so here goes. I really would like to have a 20ft or 30ft shipping container or retired school bus that can work as a hurricane shelter. Thinking about hurricanes really keeps me up at night.
This other stuff is helpful too.
- Old sheets and towels(puppies p**p a LOT), and old t-shirts, cloth placemats, old bathmats - these work really well in the bottom of a pet carrier to soak up p*e.
- baby gate, old playpen, large plastic totes, cat-sized pet carriers, wire cages(all sizes).
- Chow - dog, puppy and cat. canned cat food for kittens just learning to eat
- chainsaw, rechargeable electric tools (drill and saw)
- 2 x 4's, 1 x 4's, 1 x 6's - short pieces for doghouses (any used form boards etc.
- cleaning supplies: Bleach, white vinegar, laundry soap(powder), paper towels, toilet paper.
