Dear Animal Lovers, Advocates, Rescuers & Activists:

I'm going to try to take another stab at editorial next week for the HuffPo, for Bill C-246.  Ergo, no newsletter next week...If I can't get the editorial done, I won't hold it against myself, but will be nice to have a small break before Fall season starts in earnest...

INFO

I know lots of our readers are still "meat-eaters" ... and by that, I mean no disrespect. This is not intended to be a guilt-inducing post. But a stand needs to be taken on meat. So start somewhere. Please. Meatless Mondays. Right there, you can make an incredible difference. All vegans, all vegetarians started somewhere. You can too. You KNOW the planet is already out of water. Do it for your kids, and their kids. Just do it. Reduce your consumption of animals in any way possible.

YOUTUBE  - "RESCUEDIARIES"

This week, Anita Krajnc is in front of the courts, charged with mischief, for doing the right thing and giving a dehydrated pig water, in his/her last few minutes of life.

What would you do?

Ontario Court of Justice, Burlington, August 24th, 10:00 AM. 

I'll be there to support her, and do the right thing.  NOT doing something is complicit denial.  If you can't be there, I implore you to share the enclosed video. Raise awareness. If you're not part of the solution... you know... you ARE part of the problem. So please stand for Anita, stand for animals, stand for something.


Coming soon to RescueDiaries:  A new visit with Dr. Faith Banks regarding palliative pet care; a visit with Toronto Animal Services (love them!) regarding "care and conditions" in our new By-laws, and an update on Gus Pig at Ralphy's Retreat and Farm Sanctuary - Gus has lost 1/2 his body weight and is thriving!

For that dear Canadian bear, taken out by an American asshole, which the Alberta government ALLOWED.  Sorry folks, but not sorry. We've got to do SO MUCH MORE THAN COMPLAIN. Pls sign petitions above, please write the SOB and tell him what you think. For heavens' sakes I'm begging you DO SOMETHING, ANYTHIN to ensure that dear bear has not died in vain. m.
