Many of you know that I work with several animal groups. These groups are very dear to my heart and I try to support them in every way that I can locally and nationally. One of my favorites is Best Friends Animal Network. Best Friends has deployed to Asia and is setting up rescue and shelter stations through out the area. Please join me in providing help for the rescue and sheltering of these displaced animals. Many are owner owned and need a place to stay. They can not always take their pets with them, nor can US citizens take their pets to the US at this time. Here is a list of animal groups in Japan that you can donate to also.
