Hi, all you animal lovers! We all know that a pet can make a house a home! So, please help both of these organizations….
The Animal Rescue Site is having trouble getting enough people to click on it daily so they can meet their quota of getting FREE FOOD donated every day to abused and neglected animals. It takes less than a minute (about 15 seconds) to go to their site and click on the PURPLE BOX ‘fund food for animals for free’. This doesn’t cost you a thing. Their corporate sponsors/advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate food to abandoned/neglected animals in exchange for advertising. Here’s the web site! (CLICK HERE) Please go on it, and click for the animals and pass it along 10 friends that you know. (Per Snopes, this is a legitimate site!) I know this is a re-post, but hungry animals don’t mind you reading this again.
Secondly, mark your calendar for the 15th Annual Black Cat Ball on Saturday, October 23rd at 6PM; location is the Lone Tree Golf Course in Antioch. There will be a reception, dinner, dancing, DJ, Silent auction and costume contest! All proceeds benefit the animals at the Antioch Animal Shelter. For tickets or information, call 925-431-8318 or 925-754-2923 (Friends of Animal Services) THANK YOU for supporting both these worthwhile organizations!
State treasuries are holding billions of dollars waiting to be returned to the rightful owner. This money goes back to the state when the owner cannot be found on forgotten bank accounts, insurance policies, uncashed checks and dividends. Check out www.missingmoney.com or www.unclaimed.org to see if you are the owner. Also, be sure to check every state that you lived, check maiden names and the names of your deceased family members.
When you found your millions, don’t forget who sent you the link! LOL
Hi! My name is Charlie, and I need a new home and someone to love me; my human dad just died. (His human dad was my friend and former neighbor.) I was found under a porch on a cold wet day in Oct 2003; taken from my mom and left to fend for myself. I was nursed to health with love from my human parents near Willits. Before I turned 2, my human mom died, so my human dad & I moved back to the Bay Area.
For the last 5 years, I lived in Martinez with my own yard. I love to catch a ball and cuddle up next to my owner at night. I am 6 ½ (7 at the end of September), weigh 72 pounds and a TERRIOR MIX. My name is CHARLIE and I was spoiled by my human dad who loved to throw the ball for me to catch and take me on car rides. I need someone to give me love & play catch with me, and I will keep you company.
I LOVE kids, car rides, playing ball, and Pupperoni. Charlie is very social, and the people currently housing him would keep him, but they do not have a yard. Please call 925-324-0143 if you can help. Thanks!
