Pet Friendly Places. USA. Traveling with your Pet.

Big holiday weekend coming up, Labor Day 2008.

It's always a concern. Where can we stay so that Fidelma ( my chihuahua ) can come with us? I have never used a pet boarding facility because just the idea of Fidelma in a kennel or cage will certainly take away the enjoyment of my vacation. She's simply my squeezy, cute, little girl-girl, and the daughter we never had! Oh, don't get me started with this baby talk...

Anyway, here are some websites that will help anyone who suffers from the same worries as I do. Okay, sometimes, I feel that the hotel is not giving us the best rooms and the pet-friendly rooms seem to be in some odd corner of the complex...but...it's okay. I can live with that, and I certainly keep the room tidy and clean for the next occupant.

Did I tell you that Fidelma has a cute, little nose that is simply heavenly to kiss when it is moist and cool? Oh Lord have mercy...

So, here they are:

What! No baby talk? You should hear me. "Who's my bootifull boo boo. What a bootifull munna munna. Who's our bootifull boo. What a bootifull boy." As the 100 pound white fluffy calamity looks at me thinking "Yeah, you're gone lady. Real gone."

Three Members of the Philippine Shooting Team and the Killing of Protected Philippine Wildlife

When a member of the animal or plant kingdom goes extinct, there will be no second chances. Evolution will simply not repeat itself. There are reportedly eighty bird species that are unique to the Philippines and many of them have already made it to the endangered list. And we, to a great extent, have indiscrimate hunting to thank for it. In spite of two national laws protecting Philippine animals, the carnage continues unabated. The killings could occur as arbitrarily as guys getting together for macho time, or as a result of a well-planned hunting trip involving speed boats, bird callers, and camouflaged outfits. Either way, the outcome is the same. Philippine wildlife, our natural treasures, inches closer to a state of irreparable vacancy. Not too long ago, we learned about the Bacolod Air Rifle Club (BARC) whose unbridled killing of Philippine birds and ducks became the subject of an online petition calling for immediate government intervention. My post on that most disturbing c...

William Baber, Tennessee Vet Gone Bad.

Euthanasia is suppose to be merciful. When William Baber had his way, it was far from it. Baber used the very cruel " heart stick " method minus the sedation. This means that the animals could spend as long as 30 agonizing minutes before death actually occurred. Undercover video showed that William Baber even stepped on the animals to immobilize them for the injection. Do I sound like I am describing an executioner and not a veterinarian? Very sad, isn't it? The video showed dogs’ tails visibly wagging and cats are flailing before they’re given the lethal injection . "It’s just a horrible, horrible way for an animal to die,” said former euthanasia technician June McMahon. Tennessian.com reported that " still conscious, the cats were described by inmates as 'going wild' after being placed in a container, with as many as 10-15 of them being dumped on top of each other in a 'cruel manner,' authorities allege.These animals were allegedly placed ...

Ringling Bros. Elephant Acts to be Abolished. Nothing to be Excited About. March 2014.

This is today's big news. It is all over the newspapers. Different animal rights organizations have made their respective announcements. Many people, particularly animal right advocates are celebrating. No reason to celebrate, sorry If you believe that Ringling can commit an act that benefits their enslaved animals, any animal for that matter, I have a tall building on 34th Street to sell you. Altruism is not the motivating factor, but their profits. Why three years from now? If they have the money to keep the elephants for three more years, they certainly have the money to release them to sanctuaries NOW. It's a ploy to lull AR groups into a state of complacency, and e ase up on the pressure. I don't think that will happen. The AR groups will persists simply because elephants are not the only enslaved animals in circuses. All of them have to be sent home for us to truly celebrate a victory. As for now, Ringling will tread water and watch if their image will recov...
