A Place to Bark... and meow

A PLACE TO BARK is a no kill foster and adoption rescue dedicated to the welfare of animals. Established in 2001, we mainly work with Animal Control Agencies, rescue animals from high kill shelters and foster them till they are healthy. This provides the best possible situation, for the animals. They are then placed for adoption through Humane Societies in various parts of the country. We cover all costs for the medical care of the animals with no cost to the Humane Societies they are going to. We also do some private adoptions after a strict screening process.

Anyway.. Parade is running a contest. The top four ( I think) people, or orgs who with the most UNIQUE donations will recieve a $50,000 grant to their cause.
Also, the donations up to $25,000 will be matched by the Zoline Foundation even if the cause does not place in the top four.
Any donation of $10 or more counts.
The art community is doing what they can, and so far she has fabulous chances of staying in the top five or however many it is.
If you look at her blog, and would like to help her achieve this goal, or know someone else who might, I ask that you pass the word. We have till the end of the month to keep her in the top.
There is a "badge" on the right hand side of her blog for donations.
Thank you so much for giving this a read!
(and for those who are curious, she's located in Tenn, so most of us are too far away to say "oh, how cute, let me drive right over and adopt him")
