Sad story for these two sweeties. Their momma is terminal and hospitalized. She called and requested we go to her home to get her dogs, tortoise and parrot. They had been alone four days by the time we got the call. We were able to capture the two fearful dogs and brought them into foster care. Our friend, Denise, rescued the bird and tortoise - we very much appreciate her help. The two dogs are settling in and making new friends. They both need vet checks (which we will get done) before they are available for adoption. Their momma is relieved her pets are safe, have the care they need and (eventually) the loving homes they deserve. Now that she no longer has to stress about her pets, their momma can concentrate on being comfortable, preparing for her near final days and passing in peace. May peace be with her - 💔

I shall
Gather up
All the lost souls
That wander this earth
All the ones that are alone
All the ones that are broken
All the ones that never really fitted in
I shall gather them all up
And together we shall find our home
A little poem written by Athey Thompson
Taken from A Little Book Of Poetry
By Athey Thompson
This picture is of Camberley Kate, who was well known in Camberley as the lady who would wander the streets with her “stray dogs” cart and gather up all the waifs and strays. It is said that during her life she rescued and gave a loving home to over 600 homeless dogs.
Today, I’m honouring this inspirational lady who devoted her life to saving dogs. And what a legacy she did leave behind, and to all the animals, we must be kind.
Kate Ward in Camberley, England in 1962

- “Room 8” ( 1947–1968 )

Room 8 was a neighborhood cat who wandered into a classroom in 1952 at Elysian Heights Elementary School in Echo Park, California. He lived in the school during the school year and then disappeared for the summer, returning when classes started again. This pattern continued without interruption until the mid-1960s.
News cameras would arrive at the school at the beginning of the year waiting for the cat's return; he became famous and would receive up to 100 letters a day addressed to him at the school. Eventually, he was featured in a documentary called Big Cat, Little Cat and a children's book, A Cat Called Room 8. Look magazine ran a three-page Room 8 feature by photographer Richard Hewett in November 1962, titled "Room 8: The School Cat". Leo Kottke wrote an instrumental called "Room 8" that was included in his 1971 album, Mudlark.
As he got older, Room 8 was injured in a cat fight and suffered from feline pneumonia, so a family near the school volunteered to take him in. The school's janitor would find him at the end of the school day and carry him across the street.
His obituary in the Los Angeles Times rivaled that of major political figures, running three columns with a photograph. The cat was so famous that his obituary ran in papers as far away as Hartford, Connecticut. The students raised the funds for his gravestone. He is buried at the Los Angeles Pet Memorial Park in Calabasas, California. 🐈 ❤️

Today is Save a Spider Spider Day, but really this is a day we should observe every day! The vast majority of spiders are of great benefit to us. They help control pest populations and their impressive range of unique adaptations have provided breakthroughs for us in a wide range of fields including medicine, science, manufacturing and even robotics.

Now You Know! - Cellar spiders (Pholcidae) are members of the Pholcidae family of arachnids. They have very thin, long legs and a body shape resembling a peanut. They are found on every continent in the world except Antarctica. These spiders are beneficial because they reduce the population of other more harmful household pests.

January is Unchain a Dog Month, and Guard Dog is here with a reminder that all animals should be free. ❤️

This January, we encourage you to check whether your state has passed legislation to ban the practice of chaining dogs. If not, reach out to your state representatives and urge them to advocate for Guard Dogs everywhere.

Check whether your state has a law on the books at https://www.animallaw.info/topic/table-state-dog-tether-laws

Awww…. So sweet! 🐟🍁🐈‍⬛🐾

Seeing people come to buy fish and handing the owner, money, this cat went out and got a leaf to pay for her fish. On the first day, the owner of the shop thought this was very cute, so he gave her a small fish. Now everyday this cat comes in to buy a fish with a leaf.
