The poem's Scots title may be translated into standard English as "old long since" or, less literally, "long long ago",[6] "days gone by", "times long past" or "old times". Consequently, "For auld lang syne", as it appears in the first line of the chorus, might be loosely translated as "for the sake of old times".

Happy New Year
Should old acquaintance be forgot,
and never brought to mind?
Should old acquaintance be forgot,
and auld lang syne?

Chorus
For auld lang syne, my dear,
for auld lang syne,
we'll take a cup of kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

And surely you'll buy your pint cup!
and surely I'll buy mine!
And we'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

Chorus

We two have run about the hills,
and picked the daisies fine;
But we've wandered many a weary foot,
since auld lang syne.

Chorus

We two have paddled in the stream,
from morning sun till dine;
But seas between us broad have roared
since auld lang syne.

Chorus

And there's a hand my trusty friend!
And give me a hand o' thine!
And we'll take a right good-will draught,
for auld lang syne.

They're killing babies in the name of Freedom
We've been down that sorry road before
They let us hang around a little longer than they should have
And it's too late to fool us anymore

We've seen the ones who killed the ones with vision
Cold-blooded murder right before your eyes
Today they hold the power and the money and the guns
It's getting hard to listen to their lies

Chorus:
And I've just got to wonder what my Daddy would've done
If he'd seen the way they turned his dream around
I've got to go by what he told me, try to tell the truth
And stand your ground
DON'T LET THE BASTARDS GET YOU DOWN

Mining roads
Killing farmers
Burning down schools full of children
Fighting communism

Chorus:
And I've just got to wonder what my Daddy would've done
If he'd seen the way they turned his dream around
I've got to go by what he told me, try to tell the truth
And stand your ground
DON'T LET THE BASTARDS GET YOU DOWN

The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity.

I was just looking through my Kroger receipt from last night and I noticed that they were donating to Ohio Alleycat Resource & Spay/Neuter Clinic . I had completely forgot you could select on your KROGER account what charity you would like them to send money to. They have been doing this all along and I am glad. They have helped us get our community cats fixed several years ago.
If you didn't know about this program and you have a KROGER PLUS account you can select various charities and I think they give a portion of you spent to the charity.

Its is a way you can give indirectly to us as well. So thanks

Peace.

"Urgent Plea for Help: We're in need of support to feed our cats, and we have 3.5 lb bags of cat food on our wishlist for just around $5! Cat food for 20 cats is an ongoing challenge, and your small donation can make a significant difference.

If you're able to contribute a bit more, larger bags are also on the list. We understand that some may hesitate to give cash donations, questioning if it truly benefits the cats. By purchasing food directly, you can be certain your support goes straight to the kitties. Plus, there's no additional fee that PayPal will deduct from your donation.

Your support means the world to us. Please share this post with anyone you know who might be willing to help our furry friends!

This holiday season, let's come together and make a real impact. Merry Christmas and Happy Winter Solstice!

This has been an issue for some time. While folks mostly think of dogs, there are a ton of unwanted cats. Every one wants a kitten.... Yet we have not been successful in finding forever homes for our kitties.
We worked hard to get them TNRD but we still care for them and that requires the generous donation and support.
We are not a shelter in the traditional sense. We just had an explosion of kittens and cats at the beginning of 2020 and it has been an ongoing effort to care for them
We are in a rural area so there isnt a lot of awareness or compassion for semi feral cats.
Again, anything you all can do to help us take care of these animals that is very much appreciated. There is no room at shelters. We are their home but it is challenging to feed them.
If you love kitties. Consider buying a bag of food off of our Amazon List.
Thanks!!!! Merry Xmas.

While shelters are more than happy to help you adopt its not a decision you should take lightly.

Good morning Everyone!!!!
Just a reminder that we are still trying to raise money for our kitties. If you have anything left over this holiday season.. we would be most appreciative to have anything you could spare!.

Here is where you could donate.

Keep in mind again, that we are a private rural effort. We dont' have access to funding like the big charities yet our goals are the same. Caring for our cats and maybe even finding forever homes for them.

Here is our KO-FI page where you can donate.

I noticed I have over 1,000 followers on this page.. If each follower that is liking this group would give just 1 dollar!! We would have upwards of $1,000 !!!!
That would go a long way to helping us pay for cat litter and cat food!

One dollar.. that is way less that a dinner out or a cup of coffee at starbucks.
If you love the kitties.. support the kitties!

Thanks
Happy Holidays!

I removed the offensive video of the woman swearing. I understand this is a diverse group of people and folks do not find that language funny or acceptable.
I humbly apologize if I have offended anyone's sensibilities.

Welcome to our page, and thank you for your support!

If you're new here, first of all, thanks for liking. Secondly, you might be wondering what we're all about. Well, we take care of a semi-feral cat colony in Brown County, Ohio. We have around 15 outdoor cats, mostly TNR'd (fixed), and 7 that we care for indoors.

A few years ago, one of our outdoor cats showed up with an injured eye. We don't know how it happened; someone may have kicked her. She underwent surgery and now has one eye. At the time, she had a kitten we took in, and we also had 3 other cats we had fixed. Being on alert during the pandemic, we kept them inside, hoping to find forever homes. Unfortunately, luck wasn't on our side. Shelters were at capacity, and with the shutdown, the kitten/cat population exploded due to a glut of litters.

Living in a rural area makes getting cats fixed logistically challenging and expensive. We've relied on private donors, vouchers, free grant programs, and personal funds to fix as many as we can. The pandemic made it easier as I worked from home, providing more flexibility. While we've fixed the majority of the cats, there are still 3-4 we can't easily grab. Logistically, trapping and taking them to an affordable place is difficult. Our population has stabilized, and we hope to address the remaining few next spring.

Finding forever homes for indoor cats has been challenging. We now have 7 indoor cats, which weren't initially planned, but we do what we can, relying on private donations and scraping together our own money to buy food and cat litter for them. Unfortunately, as we're not a 501c3, we're not eligible for additional funding.

Being a cat colony caretaker is tough, as many do it out of the kindness of their hearts. Without a few thoughtful benefactors, it would be even harder. Alongside caring for our cats, we've taken on the responsibility to educate the community and provide information about semi-feral and feral cat colonies. There always seems to be plenty of resources for dogs, but not as many for cats.
Anyway, that is our story. We have goals to improve the room where our 7 indoor cats are, hoping to provide more enrichment and scratching posts etc. The outdoor ones we have to keep fed and watered and warm.
Your help either through a monetary donation Or through our Amazon WISH LIST does help us to achieve these aims.

Thank you so much for your support and kindness. Please spread the word. Thanks

🐾 This Giving Tuesday, as big charities receive lots of love, we're here with a humble request. If you have a little extra to spare, please consider supporting us. 🐾

Your generosity can make a paw-sitive impact on our furry friends. We constantly need funds for essentials like Cat Food and Cat Litter, and we're dreaming of expanding our cat room to give our inside kitties more space for play and enrichment.

Considering PayPal fees, rounding up your donation would be an incredible help in maximizing the support you provide. Every dollar counts, and together, we can create a better world for our beloved feline companions. Thank you so much for your kindness! 🐱💙 !
