What a Kewl Idea for a Birthday!
Today I received a phone call from a lady planning a birthday party for her two children, ages nine and ten. All the kids are invited to come to a skating rink and have fun--but instead of bringing presents, she had an alternate idea and asked me what I thought.
“My children have enough stuff, they don’t need presents,” said Diane B. “I want their friends to bring cat and dog food, toys and treats instead. We’ll collect them and donate to the area shelter.”
Wow! I have a feeling that the staff and all the d*gs and kitties at the local shelter will be celebrating that birthday with big grins and lots of purrs.

Got any other great ideas to help out shelter animals? Leave a comment and share them!
