43 cheers

Happy March everyone! People Are Wonderful is one year old. WHEEEHOOO!

To celebrate I shall tell you of a wonderful program run by wonderful people. The Humane Society of the United States has this fantastic program called Coats for Cubs. They will accept your old-given-to-you-by-your-great-Aunt-Zelda-just-gathering-dust-in-the-closet-oooky-fur coat. Also hats and mittens and such. They then send them to wildlife rehabilitators(love them to pieces) who then use them with the little orphaned or injured animals they are saving. The coats are cut to size for whatever possum, raccoon, squirrel or rabbit happens to need some extra comfort and coziness. The hats are often turned inside out to make a nesty for the little bobo. It really lowers the stress level of the animal so they can concentrate on healing.

Oh my goodness the wonderfulness of it.

My mom has a muskrat coat and we will be sending it away, away to help a little critter feel some deserved comfort.

For any of you who know me and you have a coat to donate, I sure will send it along.
