From Jim: I usually enjoy putting a blog together. It's a time to share and chat and, sometimes, just blabber. Not so, today. The reality of being responsible for the lives and well being of the animals here can get pretty heavy. We have the support and help of a lot of good folks, but frankly, without more, a bunch more, this sanctuary will not be sustainable and most our resident critters will die. That's a stark truth, not a vague fear. These animals came here because they were out of other options. Donna and I really don't mind the work, or the strain of stretching the budget "just a little more". We know what's at stake, if we don't. Well folks, there's only so much stretching that can be done and then it's not possible to do more. We're at that point now. It's OK-lives were saved, but for how long? You, every single one of you, can make a real difference. You'll benefit from a tax break, a sense of satisfaction and the knowledge that your care saved a critter. We'll appreciate it more that we can say. I'll write about this issue often. I hope you'll hear me.
