Save The Animal Victims of Typhoon Haiyan

Super Typhoon Haiyan was one of the strongest storms ever to hit land. It blasted the Philippines with winds up to 190 mph and sent giant walls of ocean water crashing into buildings and flooding down streets.

Many animals are suffering from the effects of the storm. Companion animals were separated from their families, and wildlife was injured by the chaotic winds. 


That's why the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW)'s Disaster Response Team is in the Philippines right now. We are working with our local partners to rescue and protect companion animals and wildlife affected by the typhoon.


Animals battered by the Typhoon Haiyan's historic winds and rains desperately need medical attention and food. These helpless animals need YOU.

Negative vs. Positive

Every day you and I are being bombarded with negatives. Politics, prices, the economy, interest rates - you name it, we're hearing about it ... bad news. Supreme mental strength is required to keep your mind on a track that will lead to a positive end result. 

Now is an excellent time to put your nose into a few history books. You will find the stories of men and women who have continued to win, in spite of what was happening all around them. There have always been personalities who took the economic environment as it existed in their day, and instead of letting it guide their every move, they continued with life as if it had little or no effect on their results. Successful business people have always done that and probably always will.

Regardless of what the economic environment was like, some people have figured out how to overcome it. There is, as it turns out, always a way. This optimistic statement seems worth expanding on.

In every era, including our own, people have a tendency to believe that the day of great wealth gathering opportunities are over. For whatever reason, the era that just passed always looks better! People are always blaming circumstances for their results ... that high taxes, high prices, high labor costs and numerous other problems are preventing them from making it.

Do as winners have always done and accentuate the positive. Get on the "I can" mental frequency! I love what George Bernard Shaw shared with us on this very subject. 

Shaw said,

"People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don't believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances that they want, and if they can't find them, make them."

Hunky Men Volunteer For Kittendales 2014 Calendar Raises Money For Shelter

How Sexy Is This?

A group of hunky men from all walks of life volunteered their time posing with their furry kitten friends to help their shelter in a fundraiser and bring up the awareness of shelter animals and adoption.

“The Kittendales project was conceived in early 2007 when the board of directors at Hull Seaside Animal Rescue was brainstorming about how to raise money for their cat shelter. Chris Crotty, one of the founding members of the shelter decided it would be a good idea to put together a calendar of hunky men and cats. 

The concept was proposed to photographer Joanne Berman, who offered to shoot the calendar at no cost. Susan Davis, a board member at the time, offered to coordinate and give freely of her time to make the calendar happen. Susan and Joanne made it their “pet” project, and in the Spring of 2007, their hunt for a few good men began! The response from the guys was overwhelming. Their willingness to donate their time, and desire to be a part of this venture, for the benefit of the kitties, was extraordinary!” (Kittendales.com)

How Would You Like To Live In An Airplane Seat?

Millions of pigs live their entire lives inside gestation crates -- tiny cages about the same size as an airplane seat! This means that these pigs don't even have the room to turn around.

Pigs are intelligent animals that lead active social lives when allowed. Forcing them into such confined living spaces is inhumane.

Several companies such as McDonald's and Costco have announced that they will no longer use gestation crates. This is a step forward, but we need to keep fighting for a crate-free future for all pigs.
 

The Humane Society of the United States needs your help - sign on with us and millions of animal lovers worldwide today and say "NO" to gestation crates for pigs.

'Tis the Season of the Gunshot Sea Lion

Sea lions are protected under the Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972, and harassing, injuring, or killing them is subject to fines up to $10,000. Enforcement is difficult and often requires a direct witness to the crime. 
You can help protect sea lions and other marine mammals from these horrific and illegal crimes – report any violations of The Marine Mammal Protection Act to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) 24-hour Enforcement Hotline (1-800-853-1964).


Nezzie is a juvenile male California sea lion that was rescued by the Santa Barbara Marine Mammal Center and transferred to The Marine Mammal Center for rehabilitation at the end of October. He was found on a beach at Coal Oil Point in Santa Barbara County, weak and emaciated. 


 Diagnosis...Gunshot Wound!

 Sadly, Nezzie is one of many sea lions that we have treated for gunshot wounds in recent years. Such shocking cases, push us to raise awareness about this cruel, inhumane – and illegal behavior toward marine mammals.
