A Ribbon for Spay Day or Any Day!
Easy to make! Just take two band aids, criss-cross them and stick them on a jacket, your purse or briefcase, or on anything! You can take a pen and add a message to each, like “Spay Day”, “Fix Your Critter” or “Spay Neuter”, or let the blank band aids speak for themselves, as people ask you “What is that for?” ...What an easy way to open a conversation about the importance of spay neuter. Remember: Spay Day USA is February 24,2009

In good times and Bad!
Sincere thanks to our Lucky Stars, all of whom have opted to renew their pledges of free spay neuter surgeries and other services to the needy animals of their choice in 2009. This year starts out as one of the most difficult in memory. It is wonderful to know that so many needy animals crossing paths with our Lucky Stars in the year ahead will benefit from their generosity. Hats off and a warm round of ap-paws to each and to all!

Mickey Rourke Endorses Neutering
The actor paid tribute to his dogs, present & “passed”, when accepting his Best Actor Golden Globe for “The Wrestler.” He next teamed with PETA to promote neutering:
His earthy language & macho image should convince many: neutering’s the right thing!
