Carleigh: Help save pets in your community

For several years now, my family has made regular contributions to the SPCA. The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is dedicated to helping animals in need, whether they need food and shelter, or medical care and treatment. In either case, their attention and assistance helps prevent animals from suffering.

My youngest daughter Carleigh and her mother have been the motivating force behind our family’s efforts since it was first decided to lend a hand. They have canvassed for funds, sold pet calendars provided by the SPCA and in the last 2 years have begun a new project - the creation and sale of holiday gifts. They spend the entire year creating ornaments and related goodies, which they sell at craft fairs during the holiday season. (let me tell you, our home becomes quite the construction site!) They have been doing this for a few years now, and are still going strong. Needless to say, I am very proud of them.

Donations are Needed!

We often receive email from pet owners about difficult situations they are in, or from shelters in need of funding assistance for the animals they care for. Often there are medical expenses involved that are unexpected and need outside help. This is an example of the emails we receive:

I found your website trying to look for assistance in helping me pay for my cats surgery. I rescued my cat about a year ago, when I took her to the vet she had an open wound in her armpit, which was stitched up three seperate times. I was later told that I had to take her to a specialist. The surgery will cost about $3000.

I am a single mom of a young child and in a very hard financial position that I am slowly getting out of. My cat is very loveable and dear to my daughter and myself, which is why I do not want to give her up. She is in pain and I am tired of watching her limp around on three legs. I am contacting you because your work is great. I wanted to know if you have any suggestions in helping me find donations for this surgery.

How donations are spent
Your donations help B.J the dog!

BJ was suffering from a nasty illness called glaucoma, which caused him to have a massive infection in his eyes. Thanks to the generous support from Little Paws and Carleigh, BJ was spared after having surgury and regained his healthy and loving nature.

Meet Kailey - The most recent recipient of help from the family, Carlena, and Bruning.com :)

Kailey also had eye problems, as you can see in the close up images, her right eye had been severely traumatized. You'll also notice in the 2nd picture how much she appreciated the help she received!

While I support their efforts and occasionally help out, the vast majority of the work is done by Carleigh and Ann-Margaret (her mom). Despite everything life throws up to distract them from their goals, such as working hard to maintain good grades in school, or taking care of the shopping and dealing with the family issues while working fulltime. They do an excellent job.

Which brings us to this site. Instead of getting in the way of their craft production I am building this site to help them and the animals we love so much. Continuing on the path they have begun, you will find a wide assortment of pet related material on this site. Posters, calendars, pet care articles, funny stories, Cat and Dog Humor, related online resources, favorite pictures, etc are all available for your enjoyment. If you have any suggestions, please let me know!
