![]() ![]() only have a moment, but i wanted to share with you all [especially you, kimbo], that i received a telephone call early this morning from the Chief Officer Herself. she was so impressed with a conversation on case # for the horses, pigs, and cats, and my committee getting food/vet care for the animals, after i spoke with the officer a few days ago. Chief Officer has asked for a meeting with me [we scheduled for the 19th at 2 P.M.], and really wants to work in partnership providing food to the animals in need throughout this county. her officers are on the road each day, and come in contact with people who could use the help. i promised her that the three people i plan to accompany me to the meeting will not be involving themselves in any of the past issues between the humane society and animal control facility. i made my intentions very clear - moving forward, mending fractured relations, and focusing on helping the animals. one of the people i invited to join me is a new board member for the humane society, and she has not any of the old troubled history between the HS and AC. good news part two - the animal advisory board will consist of seven members- AC, HS, vet, community member, commissioner, attorney, & law enforcement. these meetings will be Open to the public- yay ! and, the Chief Officer of animal control shall have no voting power. i am happy today. thank you kimbo for your support during the process- and to everyone else who has followed, and cheered on my committee to bring the animal control in my county into the 21st century. best, belle ![]() |

Belle,
You totally rock! I just hooked up with an animal sanctuary in San Antonio, to do some gardening/landscaping/permaculture work, and I wanted to post their info here. The founder also brings out alternately-abled kids to work with the animals as an animal-therapy type of thing. She's going to be installing some gardens, butterfly gardens, bird sanctuaries, bat houses, and all kinds of stuff. The founder and sole caretaker picks up animals from all over the country, and she even goes to Mexico. She's a great person. If anyone knows of any resources for her, please let me know, so I can pass them along. She deals primarily with farm animals including chickens from egg laying plants...but she also does stuff with other birds too. Here's a link: Sunny Day Farms Dylan |

Dylan, what kind of resourses is she primarily needing, there are a lot out there and much competition for them. Is she 501 ? Sorry haven't cruised her site yet.

She's not 501'd yet, but it's in the works. She's filled out the paperwork, and she's already got her board set up, and all that stuff. She's been funding all of this herself for the last ten years, but she can't afford to do that anymore. And she's got the cutest mini-cow named Sweet Pea. So far, it's my favorite. I sooooooo want a mini-cow. And she's already got me not eating eggs from caged chickens. It's pretty horrid how they're treated. She's has cute demonstrations for the kids, and she showed me the one of the egg-laying cages. That's all it took. I'm sure by the end of this job, I'll be eating a lot less meat...if any at all.

thank you weatherboi, kimbo, and dylan
![]() i did actually celebrate with the guinea pigs- ha. dylan, i read through the site, sunny day farms, and i loved their mission, and this part about the founder, " she started with a simple idea: give children the opportunity to meet and learn the stories of the animals and let the animals be the teachers. Brooke has an educational background and many years of extensive animal care experience that has led her to design many zoological educational programs for other facilities. She lives happily with her loving and supporting husband David and daughters, Alora and Grace, for whom she would move mountains." i will think of any links i might have for you to pass along to SDF. thank you for your big heart, dyaln ![]() thank you ![]() belle i was also wondering about the 501 status too, after looking over the site. i have info for grants, which may work for SDF, as their aim is to educate through various programs. |
