Thursday 26 May is Diesel Day!
Diesel Day commemorates my adoption from the Sauk County Humane Society in Baraboo, Wisconsin. It is a nation-wide celebration for loving, giving to, and caring for cats, other furry , feathered, and scaly companions, and the people who go to the mat for them.
So Diesel Day is an opportunity for you to help out. Call your local shelter and see if they need some of your volunteer time, a few boxes of Yeowww! Stinkies, bags and bags and bags of kibble, or just some of the fluttery, green money stuff.
Maybe you've been thinking of adopting that special furry or feathered someone? Or perhaps you have just the right number furry friends living with and taking care of you, but you can encourage your local kibble store to make a donation, or check with your vet and ask if they donate time or supplies to their local shelter or offer discounts to newly adopted critters. Diesel Day is the perfect day to act on your good intentions!
If you are too lazy to do that, or if you just want to score points with the Big D, support my two favorite shelters: the Sauk County (WI) Humane Society or North Country (NY) SPCA. These are both fine facilities with hard-working, caring people and would deeply appreciate your recognition of their efforts on Diesel Day! Tell them I sent you.
Me? Besides hitting you up, wIth the help of my people and my human Granma, I mailed off a package to my local shelter with green stuff and a fine Yeowww! toy for my cat pals waiting for adoption.
Giving away without regret is one of the most important things a being can do. You’ll be amazed at what comes back to you. I still have extended family in Wisconsin and, you never know, you may be directly aiding a furry cousin of mine…another future feline blogger.
Make sure you tell them Diesel sent you. If they look at you funny, send them here.
