<br />
Last week, the House Majority -- on a virtual straight party-line vote -- passed an extreme bill that terminated funding for dozens of important environmental programs. One example: the bill would block Interior Secretary Salazar’s new policy that restored protection to millions of acres of wilderness -- quality public lands across the West.<br />
If the bill becomes law, we will return to a Bush-era policy of degrading and even destroying America’s wilderness through oil and gas development, off road vehicle abuses, and other forms of development.<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
This radical legislation if passed in the Senate would: <br />
<ul><li>Cut EPA’s budget by 30 percent and cripple the agency’s ability to reduce greenhouse gases that endanger public health and contribute to global warming;</li>
<li>Slash the Land and Water Conservation Fund by 87 percent;</li>
<li>Eliminate $1.2 billion in science funding needed to move away from fossil fuels towards sustainable, non-polluting sources of energy;</li>
<li>Prohibit EPA from enforcing Clean Water Act protections for thousands of American streams and wetlands, and eliminate all funding for the North American Wetlands Conservation Fund;</li>
<li>Cut in half funding for cleanup efforts in the Chesapeake Bay, Puget Sound, Long Island Sound, Great Lakes and Lake Champlain;</li>
<li>Eliminate all funding for the Forest Legacy Program, which restores ecosystems damaged by logging and other forms of development;</li>
<li>Cripple Endangered Species recovery efforts.</li>
</ul>Meanwhile, the bill leaves untouched $4 billion in annual oil, gas and coal subsidies!<br />
This legislation is reckless and extreme. <a href="http://tws.convio.net/site/R?i=SlWrpBJUtA2OUPiW8HNZLw.." target="_blank" title="Help defend America's environmental safety net">Please, tell your SENATORS to oppose the House “Continuing Resolution”.</a><br />
The Continuing Resolution would block Secretary Salazar’s new Wild Lands policy, which directs the Bureau of Land Management to identify wilderness-quality public lands and adopt management plans that protect them, while ensuring public input.<br />
Please, help us ensure that Congress does not silence the new Wild Lands policy or the laws that protect our air, water, and lands from degradation. <a href="http://tws.convio.net/site/R?i=A8oD3SUF8vvM1yNYGmU-ag.." target="_blank" title="Help defend America's environmental safety net">Tell your Senators that you support Secretary Salazar’s Wild Lands policy, and ask them to reject the assault of the House Majority on land protection and other programs that protect our air, water, and land.</a><br />

<tr valign="top"><td style="padding-right: 20px;">Hi everyone,<br />
<br />
Thanks to pressure from local and national wildlife groups, Unified Area Command (UAC) in charge of the oil disaster response will now protect the Gulf's endangered sea turtles from burning and skimming clean-up operations. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.care2.com/go/z/e/AFYyW/zk6w/BeOuo" style="color: #1b8abe; font-weight: bold;" target="_blank">But UAC needs to do more to protect the wildlife threatened by the massive BP oil spill »</a><br />
<br />
Protecting the sea turtles is a great first step, but we must ensure proper monitoring, reporting and appropriate intervention to protect Gulf wildlife in harm's way. <br />
<br />
In fact, we still have no idea how many animals have been killed or injured in the spill and clean-up efforts because there is no public reporting of wildlife casualties. With millions of migratory birds headed straight for the oiled Gulf shores, <a href="http://www.care2.com/go/z/e/AFYyW/zk6w/BeOuo" style="color: #1b8abe; font-weight: bold;" target="_blank">we can't afford to wait.</a><br />
<br />
The victory for sea turtles shows that the UAC will listen to our concerns about wildlife. We just need to speak up. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.care2.com/go/z/e/AFYyW/zk6w/BeOuo" style="color: #1b8abe; font-weight: bold;" target="_blank">Add your voice. Tell the UAC to publicly report all wildlife casualties »</a><br />

<div class="petition_holder">When Brooke and Cliff Everest set out for a day of river rafting with their dog Bea, they never suspected the beloved spaniel would suddenly die. But that fateful day, Bea inspected a sheep carcass laced with Compound 1080. <br />
<br />
H.R. 5643 would prohibit the use, production, sale, importation, and exportation of Compound 1080 and the use of sodium cyanide. <br />
<br />
These two poisons, ranked Level 1 by the EPA for their high degree of acute toxicity, are used by Wildlife Services. Though intended to protect livestock from native predators like coyote, Compound 1080 and sodium cyanide are indiscriminate killers, and other wildlife (including endangered species), pets and people often fall victim. <br />
<br />
In 2007, Wildlife Services admitted that it had internal issues with safely handling hazardous chemicals. <strong>Protect wildlife, pets, and people from unintentional and agonizing death by telling Congress to support H.R. 5643.</strong></div><div class="petition_holder"><strong> </strong></div><div class="petition_holder" style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="font-size: x-large;"><a href="http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/556/989/531?z00m=19864323">Sign the petition here</a></span> </strong></div></div>Geronimo Rubiohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06587492997613586435noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9210209496606810535.post-35312426811601110822010-07-11T10:09:00.001-07:002010-07-11T10:09:59.043-07:00Puppy Mill Horrors (Watch the Video)<h4 id="article_title">Puppy Mill Horrors (Watch the Video)</h4><div class="posted_by">posted by: <a href="http://www.care2.com/causes/author/ps_533754520/">Cris Popenoe</a> 20 hours ago</div><div class="main_image" id="main_image"><img alt="Puppy Mill Horrors (Watch the Video)" id="article_image" src="http://dingo.care2.com/pictures/c2c/share/17/174/456/1745646_431.jpg" /></div><div class="main_story"><link href="http://dingo.care2.com/pictures/static/css/www/styles/blog_toolbar/blog_toolbar.1245702416.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"></link> <br />

<br />
Well, this video documents a raid of a puppy mill in North Carolina -- a state that, for the second year in a row, failed to pass a bill aimed at combating puppy mills by regulating commercial dog breeders.<br />
<br />
Below, see what the inside of a puppy mill looks like and how the dogs are treated. And after watching it, I hope you'll never consider buying an animal from a pet store or breeder again. Always adopt!<br />

How about behaving like a wolf today? Yes, I said <a href="http://www.care2.com/greenliving/can-wolves-sing-video.html">wolf</a>. Wolves are perhaps the most misunderstood of all animals. Often portrayed as vicious predators, they are truly wise and wondrous creatures.<br />
As seen in the 2007 documentary, <i>Living With Wolves</i>, researchers Jim and Jamie Dutcher studied the Sawtooth Pack in an enclosed nature reserve for six years, and made many amazing discoveries. (www.livingwithwolves.org) Their findings revealed a completely different perspective on the creatures often associated with scary movies and full moons.<br />
Here are a few of their “surprising” revelations. Wolves are affectionate, compassionate and loyal to their pack. Although there is an alpha male and female who lead the group, all adults have a role in raising the young. The resources of the pack are shared. Wolves care for the sick and wounded, and grieve deeply when a member is killed.<br />
What I found most interesting in the documentary was the relationship of the omega male to the other animals. He appeared to be the least of the pack. He was not permitted to eat until after everyone else, he was frequently picked on, and generally seemed to get the “short end of the stick”. But when it came time to move the pack to another sanctuary, it was the alpha male who guided the fearful omega out of his cage. He would not be left behind.<br />
When we look at the omega from the perspective of what he taught the other wolves, he clearly wasn’t the least important. This male allowed himself to be the ”last” in order for the rest of the wolves to learn survival skills. Without this training, they would not be able to protect themselves from outside predators. In actuality, the omega may be the most spiritually advanced of the wolf pack.</div><a href="http://www.care2.com/greenliving/pets/dr-susan-wagner"><b>More on Dr. Susan Wagner</b></a> (32 articles available)<br />

<div class="story_wrapper" id="GlStoryContainer">The City of San Francisco has reviewed <a href="http://blogs.sfweekly.com/thesnitch/2010/07/san_francisco_pet_ban_makes_se.php" target="_blank">a proposal to ban the sale</a> of all pets except fish. While it might be seen as extreme, there is some valid reasoning behind the proposal. If it had passed, San Francisco residents would have had to adopt a pet from an animal shelter or buy one from a store in another city. The problem at the center of the proposal is the impulse purchasing of pets by people who find they don’t want them not long after the purchase. Then they want to get rid of them and the poor animals wind up left at shelters where they are euthanized. Reportedly the problem is not such much abandoned cats and dogs, as it is small animals like hamsters. Hamsters are the number one euthanized animal at the city’s animal shelter.<br />
The shelter’s small animal population currently is about six hamsters, nine rabbits, nine mice, nine rats, two guinea pigs, a bowl of goldfish, two birds, a leopard gecko, a bearded dragon and a hermit crab named Charlie. Thirty percent of small animals there are euthanized.<br />
Pet store owners, of course, were very upset by the proposal, and said they might have gone out of business if it passed. Not to take a side one way or the other, but if it had passed, those small business owners could could have relocated. However, given the current economic times, they might not have been able to afford such moves. Even though the proposal has not been passed into law, at least it has drawn attention to the issue and perhaps there will be less purchasing of small animals like hamsters and gerbils. Perhaps the proposal can be amended to focus only on the small animals that are the most abandoned and most euthanized. Originally the proposal was intended to reduce the number of puppies sold that came from puppy mills.<br />
Some of the reactions to the proposal:<br />
<a href="http://www.pawesome.net/2010/06/pet-sales-ban-still-being-considered-in-sf.html" target="_blank">Sarah Han</a> – “Perhaps those who might otherwise buy a pet new will see that shelter animals are the pets “they’ve been searching for all along.”<br />
<a href="http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/yaki/detail?entry_id=67476#ixzz0tDZOFF2U" target="_blank">Michael Yaki</a> – “And if they allow the sale of animals through Craigslist or the classifieds, are we going to see the establishment of pet store speakeasies to consummate the delivery of the live, but otherwise prohibited, goods?”<br />
<a href="http://blogs.consumerreports.org/money/2010/07/san-francisco-considers-pet-sale-ban-hamster-dog-cat-rescue-abuse-prevent-euthanasia-pet-store-.html" target="_blank">Jeff Blyskal</a> – “Ban hamster sales only, and let the sale of other pets continue.”<br />

<br />
The Florida Panther is one of the most endangered species on the planet, with fewer than 100 alive today. Their already minimal habitat is disappearing, further jeopardizing this fragile population. <br />
<br />

<br />
In June 2010, a panther was found dead, struck by a car along a road near Immokalee, Florida. This is the 13th Florida panther to die this year. It is a tragedy that these animals, with minimal habitat space, are forced to roam in dangerous territory, like highways and other human-populated areas. <br />

A few decades ago I was walking around in the New Hampshire woods, when I saw this beautiful spotted cat. I didn't know it was a Bobcat. I walked over and stoked his back, just like I would any house cat.<br />
<br />
Well, if I hadn't had my Tai Chi reflexes, I'm pretty sure he would have taken my face off when he leaped at me. As it was, he sailed just past my head, when I twisted out of the way. When he landed on the ground he looked very surprised that I could move that fast<br />
<br />
No. The Bobcat wasn't rabid or anything like that. He was just very insulted that I would take such liberties<br />
<br />
The Moral :<br />
<br />
Leave Bobcats alone. They are tough enough to beat you up, although they'd rather not bother<br />

<br />
A bobcat and her two kittens have been spotted around an Orange County, California neighborhood for several days. Earlier this week, sheriff's deputies and Orange County Animal Care officers paid the little wild family a visit ... then they left. Ryan Drabek, interim director of OC Animal Care, said there's no reason to move these native animals since they're not sick, injured or aggressive.<br />
<br />
In an era where <a href="http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vYW5pbWFscy5jaGFuZ2Uub3JnL2Jsb2cvdmlldy9vYWtsYW5kX2NvcF9ndW5zX2Rvd25fZGVlcg==">police shoot deer in backyards</a>, and several states are responding to human-bear encounters with <a href="http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vbWFnYmxvZy5hdWR1Ym9uLm9yZy9zdGF0ZXMtY29uc2lkZXItZXhwYW5kaW5nLWJsYWNrLWJlYXItaHVudHM=">expanded hunting seasons</a>, it's pretty remarkable that they've decided to leave the bobcats alone.<br />

Bobcats are predators, although the wild cats rarely cause any trouble with humans. But that doesn't protect them from being a popular target for hunters, especially since their coats so closely resemble the coveted pelts of their endangered cousins, the lynx. Yet, in this particular Orange County neighborhood, there seems to be a peace treaty between the species.<br />
<br />
<i>The Orange County Register</i> <a href="http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vd3d3Lm9jcmVnaXN0ZXIuY29tL2FydGljbGVzL2JvYmNhdC0yNDg1NDUtcmVzaWRlbnRzLWRvd25leS5odG1sP3BpYz0x">reported</a> that "residents mostly think they are getting a cool opportunity to see the animals interact. Though some are concerned about small pets and children, and others worry the bobcats will be harassed."<br />
<br />
The bobcats seem to have taken up residence in a nearby greenbelt, but Mom spends much of the day perched on tree limbs or fences, in plain view. She appears unfazed by passing traffic, dog walkers or amateur wildlife photographers. But residents shouldn't be fooled into thinking she and her kittens are just large housecats. Drabek has warned people not to put out food or water, or get too close.<br />
<br />
Even though the bobcat seems comfortable in the neighborhood, she'll most likely move out as soon as her kittens are a little older. It's critical that people keep their distance, both to avoid any conflicts and to allow her to raise her kittens in peace. As long as the truce holds between the bobcat family and their neighbors, we might actually be able to score a point here for human-wildlife coexistence.<br />

I am reporting today on our Cats who are doing well (As you can see) and just to give you some insight of their daily routine.<br />
<br />
Well to begin with, here they are, "The Loving Terrors", Specter & Monster. This is generally what they have planned all day. To eat, sleep and not much of anything else. That is during the day. But at night they are completely "Out of Control".<br />
<br />
Does anyone else have this problem...lol...I understand that they are Hunter's, Nocturnal & very Territorial. I also understand that they enjoy playtime as much as we do. But I only wish they would be more playful and active during the day.<br />
<br />
They just love to wake us up during the early morning hours by knocking things over, fighting, playing and plain planning their mischievous activities while me, Geronimo Rubio and my fiance, Vicky Ramirez sleep...lol.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTo6kQRpzQMKfAVzGTzp_Vpz4e-o_Wqjm1z3G9GLYZi2SKsXjzxa3aS1pXX5S2hnWsi2RwuCSRor17gjwsFp7HTbvL6qJ4yzWVZYF0D8qD2BpOXtoviIcqW1dFCfrm_psTzGV9bDrXgfs/s1600/baby.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTo6kQRpzQMKfAVzGTzp_Vpz4e-o_Wqjm1z3G9GLYZi2SKsXjzxa3aS1pXX5S2hnWsi2RwuCSRor17gjwsFp7HTbvL6qJ4yzWVZYF0D8qD2BpOXtoviIcqW1dFCfrm_psTzGV9bDrXgfs/s320/baby.jpg" /></a></div>Then you got the new addition to our family, Baby. He is generally calm all day & all night long. But I think it's because he is just getting use to the others and soon he will become the Terror at Night that they are...lol.<br />
<br />
Oh how we are looking forward to that. But he is sooooooo cute that he will get away with everything less than Murder I am sure of this.<br />
<br />
He was a stray on the streets of Coral Gables Florida here and we didn't want him to get ran over so we adopted him into the house and the family.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZnplxzDII3yzNMwz95_7hZajQwcMo1Hk_5M7KPCUVrvkbxjax2UAEU7XGmiTJBkPrVd2IVKrjEeAZS2rXKidaNmjHrfenTFSWzOvaeCop8UWusZxrJy3LR_9oXUGOpTPyx89aw-iYiAs/s1600/Bunny.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZnplxzDII3yzNMwz95_7hZajQwcMo1Hk_5M7KPCUVrvkbxjax2UAEU7XGmiTJBkPrVd2IVKrjEeAZS2rXKidaNmjHrfenTFSWzOvaeCop8UWusZxrJy3LR_9oXUGOpTPyx89aw-iYiAs/s320/Bunny.jpg" /></a></div>And then we have the Queen of the bunch, Bunny...Now she is mischievous in her own ways. But she is calm most of the time. We love our pets, they are family 100% and much more. Have you ever thought about <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Pet-Therapy-Thoughts-Love-Pets/dp/1604640030?ie=UTF8&tag=lifeh0b-20&link_code=btl&camp=213689&creative=392969" target="_blank">Pet Therapy: Thoughts on Why We Love Our Pets</a><img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=lifeh0b-20&l=btl&camp=213689&creative=392969&o=1&a=1604640030" style="border: medium none ! important; margin: 0px ! important; padding: 0px ! important;" width="1" />, I have and do all the time. I know their very therapeutic and great companions. And I also know they love you unconditionally, always.<br />
<br />
I often read books and articles about their behavior like For Example: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Cat-Behavior-Answer-Book-Practical/dp/1580176747?ie=UTF8&tag=lifeh0b-20&link_code=btl&camp=213689&creative=392969" target="_blank">The Cat Behavior Answer Book: Practical Insights & Proven Solutions for Your Feline Questions</a><img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=lifeh0b-20&l=btl&camp=213689&creative=392969&o=1&a=1580176747" style="border: medium none ! important; margin: 0px ! important; padding: 0px ! important;" width="1" />, great book and lots of great content for learning more about your cats. Another favorite of mine is <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Twisted-Whiskers-Solving-Behavior-Problems/dp/0895947102?ie=UTF8&tag=lifeh0b-20&link_code=btl&camp=213689&creative=392969" target="_blank">Twisted Whiskers: Solving Your Cat's Behavior Problems</a><img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=lifeh0b-20&l=btl&camp=213689&creative=392969&o=1&a=0895947102" style="border: medium none ! important; margin: 0px ! important; padding: 0px ! important;" width="1" />, it dwells a little bit deeper into their mischievous behavior...lol.<br />

<big><b>Everglades Corporate Park - IMPORTANT CORRECTION</b></big><br />
<br />
<br />
Dear friends,<br />
<br />
While there are many reasons to oppose <a href="http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vd3d3LnN1bnJpc2VmbC5nb3Yvc3JfYWRtaW4vc3VucmlzZXBhZ2UuanNwP3BhZ2VpZD04Mg==" target="_blank">Everglades Corporate Park</a>, a chemical storage facility is fortunately not one of them. A chemical spill could very well happen on-site -- and impact Everglades wetlands, as well as our drinking water -- but it would happen as a result of construction, not long-term storage. The effect is the same, but the source of potential environmental damage is different.<br />
<br />
This does not lessen our opposition to Everglades Corporate Park, and I hope the same goes for you. I deeply apologize for the miscommunicatio<wbr></wbr>n.<br />
<br />
Please read the original e-mail, found below my name, and <b>take action against <a href="http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vd3d3LnN1bnJpc2VmbC5nb3Yvc3JfYWRtaW4vc3VucmlzZXBhZ2UuanNwP3BhZ2VpZD04Mg==" target="_blank"><b>Everglades Corporate Park.</b></a></b><br />

<br />
Imagine the Everglades, a gorgeous expanse of sawgrass that teems with life: alligators, wading birds, perhaps even a Florida panther on the prowl.<br />
<br />
Now, imagine <a href="http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vd3d3LnN1bnJpc2VmbC5nb3Yvc3JfYWRtaW4vc3VucmlzZXBhZ2UuanNwP3BhZ2VpZD04Mg==" target="_blank">Everglades Corporate Park</a>: a proposed 21-acre office park, including high rise office towers, built on top of the wetlands bordering our Everglades.<br />
<br />
<b><i>Imagine pollution from development and traffic entering the Everglades ecosystem. Imagine getting your drinking water from an aquifer directly underneath construction sites.</i></b><br />
<br />
<img alt="Everglades National Park Pictures, Images and Photos" border="0" src="http://i688.photobucket.com/albums/vv242/cpcoates1/Florida/Everglades.jpg" /><br />
<br />
Actually, South Floridians don't need to imagine paving over the Everglades to make way for sprawling development and pollution. This is our reality. Everglades Corporate Park could become part of that reality unless we make our voices heard.<br />
<br />
<b><i>Tell Sunrise city commissioners not to build a corporate office park in the Everglades.</i></b><br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vd3d3LmVudmlyb25tZW50ZmxvcmlkYS5vcmcvYWN0aW9uL3ByZXNlcnZhdGlvbi9zYXktbm8tdG8tZXZlcmdsYWRlcy1jb3Jwb3JhdGUtcGFyay1yZWFzazI/aWQ0PWVz" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff288/marciamom_33_2007/My%20photos/citycommissionpark.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
The Everglades is a beloved part of Florida's natural legacy. But pollution and development have claimed more than half of the historic Everglades.<br />
<br />
Proposals like "Everglades Corporate Park" only push the Everglades closer to the point of no return. One major chemical spill would reach the aquifer that serves as a lifeline to the Everglades -- and also supplies South Florida with clean drinking water.<br />

..<b><span style="color: black;">These 3 little souls have been held over from last week and have been given a <b>second chance. </b>Their time is limited and they are most deserving of loving homes. Serena had been previously indicated as safe in a last update due to a problem with her ID number. Another cat was instead safe and Serena is still available to rescue or adopter. Updates on all other cats are below. Many thanks to all who helped these little souls this past week. Complete list below of new cats in need this week! </span></b>..<br />

..Serena is held over and still in need of a loving home <span style="color: black;"><span style="font-size: small;">2010-04-152 Pen 19 - Serena - Domestic Short Hair-Black And White</span></span><span style="font-size: small;">Carla’s note: “Serena is a little shy, but loved an ear rub.”<br />
She is a very shy girl, but is starting to come around. She has a couple of small abrasions on her head that seem to be healing. She is around 1 year old.</span>..<br />

<br />
Please refer to ID/Run numbers when inquiring about specific animals if available.<br />
<br />
The wonderful photos of the animals in need are done by Carla and Gayla of Barrowbuddies. They take time in their busy lives to each week to do this and are a true blessing to the Barrow animals.<br />
<br />
Sponsors are welcome for any of the animals. Please email satoashley@..comcast...net (@<a href="http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vY29tY2FzdC5uZXQ=">comcast.net</a>) and we will add any sponsorships to the pleas.<br />
<br />
Barrow County is very rescue friendly. Free for GA licensed rescues; out-of-state rescues, please contact the shelter for details. The adoption process does not have to be completed in person. Complete vetting and boarding are available at Four Paws Animal Hospital. Specific adoption Information and hours are below.<br />
**Please refer to ID/Run numbers when inquiring about specific animals if available<br />
<br />
<br />
CATS: The adoption fee for any cat is $100. The fee includes: spay or neuter, physical exam, fecal exam, deworming, rabies vaccine, distemper vaccine, and microchip. For licensed Georgia rescues there is no charge to pull a cat, but no veterinary services come with the cat. Out of state rescues, please contact us for details. *LAST DAY means the date the cat is scheduled for euthanasia. If we have a cat posted whose last day has passed, that cat should be considered extremely urgent. Please call about those cats immediately as they may be subject to euthanasia at any time. We remove postings on available cats when they leave the building or their adoption has been completed. If you are a rescuer who has spoken for a cat or a person with an adoption application on a cat, do not take offense. We have had rescues and adoptions fall through in the past and we work hard to make sure no cat falls through the cracks.<br />
<br />
<br />
DOGS: The adoption fee for all dogs is $100. The fee includes: Spay or neuter, physical exam, fecal exam, deworming, rabies vaccine, distemper/..parvo vaccine, and microchip. For licensed Georgia rescues there is no charge to pull a dog, but no veterinary services come with the dog. Out of state rescues, please contact us for details. *LAST DAY means the date the dog is scheduled for euthanasia. If we have a dog posted whose last day has passed, that dog should be considered extremely urgent. Please call immediately about those dogs as they may be subject to euthanasia at any time. We remove postings on available dogs when they leave the building or their adoption has been completed. If you are a rescuer who has spoken for a dog or a person with an application on a dog, do not take offense.

Want to be added or removed from the mailing list? If you would like to be added directly to the Barrow County weekly list of animals in need + updates, please send an email to satoashley@..comcast...net (@<a href="http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vY29tY2FzdC5uZXQ=">comcast.net</a>). Also, if you wish to be removed, simply send an email with 'remove' in the subject line.<br />
<br />
WHAT ARE THE HOURS?<br />
Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays – CLOSED to the public (but they can still correspond with people on Wednesdays); other week days – OPEN 8-5. Call ahead before coming out around holidays.<br />
<br />
HOW URGENTLY IN NEED ARE THE ANIMALS? Call AND e-mail BEFORE 5:00 p.m. on Tuesdays. See contact information above. Generally, animals are subject to lethal injection after five (5) days of impoundment. Injections typically occur on Wednesdays, but because the shelter becomes SO FULL at times, they may occur more frequently. Contact NOW! ARE THERE UPDATES ON THE LAST POST? WHAT ANIMALS ARE AVAILABLE NOW? The following animals are NEW since the last post but may still be “extra urgent” due to their being at the animal control at or beyond their typically allotted five(5)days and/or are owner-..surrendered... Such animals are therefore subject to lethal injection at any time.<br />
<br />
The shelter is always in need of kitty litter and other items (towels, cardboard boxes that hold a case of drinks, chewy dog treats, etc.!!! PLEASE DONATE IF YOU CAN!!!<br />
<br />
THANK THE OFFICERS TODAY FOR THEIR EFFORTS TO WORK WITH RESCUES AND ADOPTERS!!!<br />
<br />
Pictures were taken and list was compiled by Barrow Buddies volunteers.<br />

I don't know about you, but this completely "PISSES ME OFF". WTF, only 9 violations. From what I saw in the video they all should be crucified. Who do these MOTHERF*@#*s think they are. What kind of "MENTAL MIDGETS" would come to do something like this. I only know one thing. My prayers will be stronger and stronger everyday that this kind of thing will soon cease to exists and that every SON of a B*#@H that participates in this kind of cruel and "Down Right Life Destructive" behavior will suffer The Great Spirits Wrath and feel the pain and suffering that he has brought to each and every one of this poor, innocent animals. Read on and watch the video if you can stomach it:<br />
<br />
This just in: In response to <b>PETA</b>'s undercover <a href="http://www.peta.org/FeatureUtahLabs.asp" target="_blank">investigation</a> of animal experiments at the <b>University of Utah</b> (the U) and the complaint that we filed with U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), the U has been <a href="http://www.deseretnews.com/article/700026464/USDA-issues-citations-to-University-of-Utah-animal-laboratories.html" target="_blank">cited</a> for <b>nine violations of federal animal protection laws</b>, including the following: <br />
<ul><li>Causing a kitten to die from dehydration </li>
<li>Keeping calves restrained for days at a time without the ability to properly stand up or walk </li>
<li>Failing to provide adequate pain relief to a monkey after surgery </li>
<li>Failing to properly treat injuries in pigs </li>

<div id="more">Prompted by complaints filed by PETA after our <a href="http://www.petatv.com/tvpopup/video.asp?video=University_of_Utah_web_edit_FINAL_Peta&Player=flv" target="_blank">investigation</a>, USDA representatives inspected the U and found exactly what our investigator had found: neglect, misery, and death in the animal laboratories. The school's response: Tom Parks, vice president of research, called these incidents of abuse and mistreatment "<a href="http://www.deseretnews.com/article/700026464/USDA-issues-citations-to-University-of-Utah-animal-laboratories.html" target="_blank">relatively minor offenses</a>." Frightening, don't you think? Imagine if this remark had been made in reference to deaths and neglect in a nursery for human babies! Parks' casual attitude speaks volumes about exactly how animals are regarded by experimenters and others who have charge, custody, and oversight of animals in laboratories. <br />
Of course, the USDA inspection does not include any incidents that we reported involving <a href="https://secure.peta.org/site/Advocacy?cmd=display&page=UserAction&id=1720" target="_blank">rats and mice</a> because these animals are not protected by the Animal Welfare Act—the only federal law governing the treatment of animals in laboratories. Of course, rats and mice feel pain, fear, hunger, and thirst just as do all mammals, including humans.<br />
While we follow up on the complaint that we filed with the National Institutes of Health, can we count on you, too, to <a href="https://secure.peta.org/site/Advocacy?cmd=display&page=UserAction&id=2673" target="_blank">get involved</a>? <br />

Honeybees Are Still Dying<br />
Honeybees Are Still Dying<br />
Three years ago, honeybees started disappearing in the United States and other countries. Hives that had been thriving were suddenly found to be devoid of bees. The epidemic of catastrophic bee losses is called Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD). This last winter was the worst yet for beekeepers. From the San Francisco Chronicle—<br />
In normal times, David Hackenberg would begin trucking his 20 million honeybees from the almond orchards of California to the orange groves of Florida this week.<br />
Instead, after a month working the almond blossoms on the West Coast, his exhausted pollinators will get some rest and relaxation in the Georgia woods before the East Coast apple blossoms summon them to work once more next month.<br />
These are not normal times for bees, or for commercial beekeepers, so Hackenberg's pollinators will skip the citrus gig to reduce their exposure to pesticides and get some rest. "Everybody is seeing (bee) losses this winter," said Hackenberg, of Lewisburg, Pa. "This was probably the worst year ever."<br />
More than three years after beekeepers starting seeing the sudden disappearance of hive populations, scientists have yet to find the cause — let alone the fix — for a condition called colony collapse disorder (CCD). Meanwhile, the commercial beekeeping industry is struggling to provide pollination services to the nations' farmers. One-third of food crops rely on insect pollination.<br />
<br />
I first wrote about this alarming situation in The Sixth Extinction.<br />
Probably A. mellifera [the common honeybee] will not become extinct, at least in the foreseeable future, but that’s actually begging the question, isn’t it? If there were a single, remediable cause of the honeybee die-off, the question of possible extinction would lose much of its force. We need to know why honeybees are dying.<br />
[We] ruled out many potential causes for CCD and found many possible contributing factors. But no single culprit has been identified.Bees suffering from CCD tend to be infested with multiple pathogens, including a newly discovered virus, but these infections seem secondary or opportunistic much the way pneumonia kills a patient with AIDS. The picture now emerging is of a complex condition that can be triggered by different combinations of causes. There may be no easy remedy to CCD. It may require taking better care of the environment and making long-term changes to our beekeeping and agricultural practices.<br />
Honeybees are dying of everything, just like AIDS sufferers with weakened immune systems. This points to environmental stress as the primary cause of the ongoing demise of A. mellifera. If we continue to degrade the environment, the stresses on bees will increase. This will further weaken the bees, which will result in more die-offs, which will increase the probability of extinction over time. Barring extinction, honeybee population declines could easily be severe enough to preclude industrial scale pollination for the various fruits and nuts we eat.<br />
So far it has been impossible to pinpoint a single cause for CCD, which strengthens the hypothesis that general environmental stress has weakened the immune system of A. mellifera. An estimated one-third of American agricultural products depend on honeybee pollination. We are getting closer to the point where the number of bees left is inadequate to service this huge industry. We are now importing bees from Australia to make up the shortfall (see the video below).<br />
After three years of research, scientists think the cause is not a single factor but a cocktail of maladies that together weaken and sicken the bees. "We know CCD bees get all the pathogens causing the symptoms; it doesn't leave answered what's the underlying cause," said Dennis vanEngelsdorp, Pennsylvania's acting state apiarist.<br />
Environmental stress, including pesticides and the strain of being trucked across time zones and climates, may also be a factor. Poor nutrition may also contribute, a diet of corn syrup or the nutritionally inferior nectar or pollen of crops such as cranberry, cucumbers or melons.<br />
"We have been losing bees and beekeepers in this country for 60 years, and now we are at the point where almost half the colonies in the country are needed to pollinate almonds in California," vanEngelsdorp said. "We are close to the margin" of a viable ratio of pollinators to crops, he said. "It's amazing to me how close we are to that line."<br />
"Something is going wrong here," Hackenberg said.<br />
Something is going wrong here. No kidding. Not all of our problems are financial or political, though you wouldn't know that from listening to the media. This video from Silence of the Bees (Nature, PBS) explains the potentially catastrophic problems we face as pollinators die off.<br />
..<br />
<br />
Since this 2007 report, things have only gotten worse for the bees. Now that our self-congratulatory Congressmen are full of themselves—at least the Democrats are—because they actually managed to do something, let's see them "fix" this problem.</span>Geronimo Rubiohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06587492997613586435noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9210209496606810535.post-87613242646188058392010-04-27T09:24:00.000-07:002010-04-27T09:24:31.641-07:00~Protect Wildlife from Effects of Climate Change~We all have to do our part to keep Mother Earth and all creations upon Mother Earth safe.

<br />
Hi Friends,<br />
<br />
Arctic ice is melting, making it hard for polar bears to find food. Rising temperatures in rivers and streams is eliminating habitat for temperature-..sensitive fish like salmon and trout. A changing climate is disrupting nature's balance between predators, like wolves, their prey and plant life <a href="http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vd3d3LnRoZXBldGl0aW9uc2l0ZS5jb20vdGFrZWFjdGlvbi8yMDIwMzAxMDY=" target="_blank">endangering the future of millions of species</a>.<br />
<br />
While Congress delays addressing global warming and its serious consequences for people and animals, the Environmental Protection Agency has stepped in to regulate big polluters under the Clean Air Act.<br />
<br />
But now, this crucial legislations is under attack. <a href="http://www.msplinks.com/MDFodHRwOi8vd3d3LmNhcmUyLmNvbS9nby96L2UvQUZVeDQvemtOeC9BWExIXw==" target="_blank">Demand Congress uphold the integrity and regulatory authority of the Clean Air Act »</a><br />

<br />
For 40 years the Clean Air Act has cut pollution dangerous to humans and animals. Now, as the EPA prepares to regulate the carbon emissions from power plants and factories that fuel climate change, several members of Congress want to permanently disallow EPA regulation of greenhouse gases.<br />

he is in very secure 7' fencing...his mom will take care of him until his forever home is found....she doesn't want him to be passed around but to find that forever loving home....I told her it could take a little while because there are so many in urgent need but I have a feeling that as a mid and also young and beautiful, he may get placed sooner than later....but he definitely needs escape proof fencing...he is a pretty tall boy<br />

** For inquiries and an adoption application for Bear, please EMAIL RESCUER KIM: wolfangelrescue<wbr></wbr>@ ykwc.net<br />
<br />
Bear is a 13 mo old mid content beauty boy. Sadly, his mom is no longer able to keep him and has asked me to find him an awesome home where he will be loved as much as she loves him. Bear is house trained, leash trained, pretty social but a little shy to begin with....he is an awesome wolfdog who has been loved and well cared for and we are looking for a wonderful forever home where he will have a sweet girl wolfdog companion to play with. Bear is located in Oregon and will be neutered prior to adoption. For inquiries and an adoption application for Bear, please contact Kim at wolfangelrescue<wbr></wbr>@ykwc. net<br />

A black lab mix named Texas living ALONE in a house in Emerson, NJ. He's still there. He's been courtesy listed on Petfinder so you can read his info and see his pics. His owner died months ago, and for whatever reason the son can't take him...but he's been going to the house a few times a day and letting him out and feeding him. Dogs are social animals, and living alone is horrible. He's a good looking, friendly dog and he's five years old. Please, everyone, try to send this to someone who you think might be able to help. He needs a foster home (that means a place to live until he gets permanently adopted) asap. <br />
<br />
Thank you!<br />
Amanda<br />
<br />
Here's his picture and info...please take a look and forward.<br />

More About Texas (URGENT)!!!!<br />
4/2010 Poor Texas is living alone in the house he's lived in for five years now. Sadly, his guardian passed away in January and a family relative goes there 2-3 times a day to walk him, but this is not enough. No dog should be living alone most of the time. Dogs need love and attention more then this. Poor Tex is wondering where is guardian is? What happened to him? Why did he leave me all alone? We desperately need a foster home or permanent home for Texas asap. Texas is 5 years old, mostly black with some white on his chest. Texas is great with people, a real family dog, as Tex loved sleeping in bed with his guardian. Texas is a very happy dog when people come to see him, he's very sweet, loves to give hugs and kisses and is very playful. Texas loves kids just as much too and would make a great family dog.<br />
Texas (URGENT)!!!! is up-to-date with routine shots, house trained and spayed/..neutered.<br />

CATS: The adoption fee for any cat is $100. The fee includes: spay or neuter, physical exam, fecal exam, deworming, rabies vaccine, distemper vaccine, and microchip. For licensed Georgia rescues there is no charge to pull a cat, but no veterinary services come with the cat. Out of state rescues, please contact us for details. *LAST DAY means the date the cat is scheduled for euthanasia. If we have a cat posted whose last day has passed, that cat should be considered extremely urgent. Please call about those cats immediately as they may be subject to euthanasia at any time. We remove postings on available cats when they leave the building or their adoption has been completed. If you are a rescuer who has spoken for a cat or a person with an adoption application on a cat, do not take offense. We have had rescues and adoptions fall through in the past and we work hard to make sure no cat falls through the cracks.<br />
<br />
DOGS: The adoption fee for all dogs is $100. The fee includes: Spay or neuter, physical exam, fecal exam, deworming, rabies vaccine, distemper/..parvo vaccine, and microchip.

HOW URGENTLY IN NEED ARE THE ANIMALS? Call AND e-mail BEFORE 5:00 p.m. on Tuesdays. See contact information above. Generally, animals are subject to lethal injection after five (5) days of impoundment. Injections typically occur on Wednesdays, but because the shelter becomes SO FULL at times, they may occur more frequently. Contact NOW! ARE THERE <br />
<br />
UPDATES ON THE LAST POST?<br />
WHAT ANIMALS ARE AVAILABLE NOW? The following animals are NEW since the last post but may still be “extra urgent” due to their being at the animal control at or beyond their typically allotted five(5)days and/or are owner-..surrendered. Such animals are therefore subject to lethal injection at any time.<br />
<br />
The shelter is always in need of kitty litter and other items (towels, cardboard boxes that hold a case of drinks, chewy dog treats, etc.!!! PLEASE DONATE IF YOU CAN!!!<br />
