Our Loving Boys (Terrors they are) by Geronimo Rubio

Hey everyone. 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.

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".

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 Pet Therapy: Thoughts on Why We Love Our Pets, I have and do all the time. I know their very therapeutic and great companions. And I also know they love you unconditionally, always.

I often read books and articles about their behavior like For Example: The Cat Behavior Answer Book: Practical Insights & Proven Solutions for Your Feline Questions, great book and lots of great content for learning more about your cats. Another favorite of mine is Twisted Whiskers: Solving Your Cat's Behavior Problems, it dwells a little bit deeper into their mischievous behavior...lol.

Well thanks for reading and enjoy your day. Please read below to "Save Our Pets" going through some rough times now.





Everglades Corporate Park - IMPORTANT CORRECTION


Dear friends,

While there are many reasons to oppose Everglades Corporate Park, 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.

This does not lessen our opposition to Everglades Corporate Park, and I hope the same goes for you. I deeply apologize for the miscommunication.

Please read the original e-mail, found below my name, and take action against Everglades Corporate Park.

- Adam Rivera



Imagine the Everglades, a gorgeous expanse of sawgrass that teems with life: alligators, wading birds, perhaps even a Florida panther on the prowl.

Now, imagine Everglades Corporate Park: a proposed 21-acre office park, including high rise office towers, built on top of the wetlands bordering our Everglades.

Imagine pollution from development and traffic entering the Everglades ecosystem. Imagine getting your drinking water from an aquifer directly underneath construction sites.



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.

Tell Sunrise city commissioners not to build a corporate office park in the Everglades.



The Everglades is a beloved part of Florida's natural legacy. But pollution and development have claimed more than half of the historic Everglades.

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.

Click here right now to tell Mayor Roger Wishner and the Sunrise city commissioners to reject Everglades Corporate Park

Sincerely,
Adam Rivera

USDA Cites University of Utah for AWA Violations

Geronimo Rubio here to bring you some "EXTREMELY" disturbing news. 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:

This just in: In response to PETA's undercover investigation of animal experiments at the University of Utah (the U) and the complaint that we filed with U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), the U has been cited for nine violations of federal animal protection laws, including the following:

• Causing a kitten to die from dehydration
• Keeping calves restrained for days at a time without the ability to properly stand up or walk
• Failing to provide adequate pain relief to a monkey after surgery
• Failing to properly treat injuries in pigs
• Allowing extreme crowding in guinea pig cages
• Socially isolating a monkey without approval and failing to provide him with proper environmental enrichment
• Performing surgery on a rabbit's eyes without proper approval

Continue reading.

Prompted by complaints filed by PETA after our investigation, 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 "relatively minor offenses." 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.
Of course, the USDA inspection does not include any incidents that we reported involving rats and mice 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.
While we follow up on the complaint that we filed with the National Institutes of Health, can we count on you, too, to get involved?
