Welcome!

Well, as usual instead of taking a bite I have swallowed the whole cookie... I've been crocheting mediocre blankets for about a year now and I found a website that inspired me to learn how to do more. My "pet" cause (pun intended) is the welfare of stray animals, and my neighborhood has a lot... more than I can afford to take in, sadly. I decided to start this blog so that like-minded animal lovers can follow my progress in this area, and possibly be inspired to help as well. My mission is to make toys for the strays at the local Humane Society shelter, and possibly raise some money to help get more strays off the street, or to prevent the strays from being there in the first place by facilitating more free spay and neuter clinics. I will be posting my progress as I teach myself (with the help of Ravelry.com and Youtube) to craft more complicated projects... leading up to items useful to pet shelters, such as toys, animal beds, etc. Please stay tuned; all commentary is welcome.

Day 2

I have seen some positive responses from all of you on Facebook so I'm feeling pretty good about this endeavor. I think most people want to help out the animals in our community but think all they can do is adopt, and for whatever reason that is not an option for them. Donations to the Humane Society or volunteering are also very good ways to make a difference without leaving you with the responsibility of caring for an animal that you don't have the time or resources to care for. Even if all you do is post my blog to your website to inspire others, that still can make a difference! Every little bit counts. If you live in the Batesville area and would like to contribute or get involved in any other way look me up on Facebook or Twitter, or email me. Become a follower and help this blog grow! And as always, thanks for your support-- I will continue to post relevant news articles and information to let you know how you can get involved in our community.
