Creature comforts

Animals may appear to be completely different species from our human race, but we are still connected.  Animals worry about survival and family well-being.  They don't read books, gamble, or wear clothes.  They do listen, feel and protect. Is there an animal you could spend time with?  Maybe stop by the pound and offer to walk the dogs, post a fuzzy animal photo on your desktop, or fill the bird feeder in the park by your house.  Find a way to connect with the other species that share our home planet with us.  You may actually learn something new about yourself.

  2. I'm trying to get a dog for grad school to keep me company. I really want one of those retired racer Greyhounds; they're couch potatoes but great dogs!

  4. We have two rescue cats, a bird feeder in the garden and we regularly donate dog food to our local shelter...it's good to share what we have with those that need it (We do stuff for humans too :-D)

    1. Giving to animals that aren't your own? Wow! I used to give stuffed animals to the dog shelter, what a blast that was. I never thought of dog food though, such a need for it!
