Hi all,

Many of you may have heard about the recent issues at Toronto Humane Society.

While I am not offering any opinions on the matter, I am going to ask you to recognize the short-term ramifications.
　
Toronto Animal Services is already struggling under enormous pressures. Adoptions are slow, and numbers (especially cats and small animals) are up.

With things happening as they are at Toronto Humane, Animal Services is
expecting that even more animals will be appearing at their doors.
　
If you have been thinking about adopting a new friend - PLEASE!

This is the weekend to actually go out and DO it.
　
If you are in the GTA area, please consider going to one of the animal services branches and adopting a new friend.
Even one animal moving into a permanent home will be an enormous help!!!
　
To see the animals that they have available, check out their website at

And if you aren't in a postion to adopt, but have been thinking of
fostering please let me know that too...
　
Thank you!!!
Shelly

"In a world older and more complete than ours they move finished and
complete, gifted with extensions of the senses we have lost or never
attained, living by voices we will never hear.　 They are not brethern,
they are not underlings, they are other nations, caught with ourselves
in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendour and
travail of the earth."　　 ***Henry Beston (1888-1968)
