"Pay it forward"...click to give free food for shelter animals.

Everyday I visit the Animal Rescue Site and click on this purple Click Here to Give - it's FREE! Your click gives .6 bowls of food for rescued animals. Join me in helping to feed shelter animals. It only costs you a click.

Please check out this site...

www.theanimalrescuesite.com

"The Animal Rescue Site provides simple, effective, feel-good ways to address an urgent, specific need: providing food and vital care for some of the eight million unwanted animals given to shelters every year in the U.S., as well as animals in desperate need around the world. Over four million animals are put to death every year in the U.S. alone because they are abandoned and unwanted. Thank you for your caring online actions.

Each click on the purple "Click Here to Give - it's FREE" button at The Animal Rescue Site provides food and care for a rescued animal living in a shelter or sanctuary. Funding for food and care is paid by site sponsors and distributed to animals in need at the Fund for Animals' renowned animal sanctuaries, pet shelters supported by the Petfinder Foundation, North Shore Animal League America, amazing International Fund for Animal Welfare programs that save animals in dire situations worldwide, and other worthy animal care facilities and programs supported by the GreaterGood.org foundation."

Hi Connie, what a sweet face and I love her ears. You can see that she loves you...she is keeping an eye on you. Katie was a very lucky girl the day that you discovered her. Rescued dogs seem to know...they are so special. Thank you for sharing her with me. Have a wonderful day!

"I listen for a living." It's all about you.

Judith, I work out in the early morning when early tv is sports and news. I see two ads all the time. The one for the ASPCA of animals that need help and the one with the photo of a child with no upper lip. I have no idea why that foundation continues to use the horrifying shot. It seems to me my little contribution can give little fluffy some care, but would not do anything for the horrific difficulties the child would need. I love both children and animals, but my money goes to the ASPCA on that one.

Hi Judith, I will make this part of my morning to do list. Also I will past this on to my people on my email list. We have 3 feral cat that I caught and had them fix 4 years ago (was 5 but 2 are no longer around) Someone just drop them off, so now we feed them and they get close to us but will always be a litle wild. We all need to take care of our 4 legged friends.

Judith, Thanks for sharing this! It's incredible the amount of unwanted pets but so wonderful to hear success stories, all of our cats were rescues or adopted from the local shelter and they live quite the comfy life now :)

Judith, I went to the site and clicked on the button. I read that today the clicks have already generated 171,206 bowls of food. And for my registration today -- it said the site will give an extra three bowls of food.

Judith, I do this too as well the one for breast cancer. It seems such a small gesture that pays off so well.

Hi Judy, thanks for sharing this, I wasn't aware of it. It's a great idea to help the shelter animals as well as giving the sponsors exposure and potential business. I'm putting this on my favorites for repeat clicks!

Hi Larry, I am sure the ASPCA is grateful for any amount. The Animal Rescue site costs you nothing just your time to click once a day. Your click is free and feeds .6 bowl of food to a shelter animal.

Hi Will, I have several past clients who do a daily run to feed feral cats. They also help to capture, have neutered /spayed and released. That is great of you to feed these cats. Thanks for passing this along as well as suggesting it as a featured post. I so appreciate that.

Hi Belinda, thank you for your kind words. I have to give credit to the volunteers with Blue Ridge Boxer Rescue. They are so dedicated to saving animals and they shared this site with me a while ago.

Hi Diane, your cats are so lucky to have you to care for them. I am so glad that you rescued them. My one boxer was pulled from the Charlotte pound on the day he was to be destroyed. He was heart worm positive so he was not available for adoption. Only a rescue group could save him. Thank goodness for Blue Ridge Boxer Rescue.

Hi Elyse, I was not aware that there was one for breast cancer. You should do a pay it forward post about that so that we can all sign up.

Thanks for the reminder, as I haven't clicked for awhile.
