Blog: I want to Live.  

I need help.

My family make a choice to not put me down or let me die a very horrible death. I know I did not look good and with colic it is a touch and go every moment it took to get me on the operating table.

It is the beginning of day two after the life threading operation. You see I did have a twisted intestine and if my family would not have of been so fast on taking me to the hospital I would have died very painfully.

Now we face the hospital bill that is climbing as long as I stay in. We are reminded serval times a day if money does not come in that they are not sure what kind of treatment I can get.

I am doing good with the care and medication now and I will die if I do not continue with it for the next few days.

Is it right for humans to get pain medication, antibiotic and Iv fluids and I can not just from lack of money?

I have a great change to recover. Please go to my blog site read my story and help me live.

  Alert: Vote for this no-kill shelter  
Focus:Animal Welfare
Action Request:Other
Location:United States

Dear friends, I would really appreciate your time on this...it would only take a minute or so to vote for this shelter.


Any group that has at least five votes during the week is eligible for the weekly prize -- so if you can get five friends to vote for your group, your group might win $500!


We're in the last two and a half weeks of the contest! The last day to vote is January 31st. I can tell you that based on our last contest, it isn't over yet. A big push or some local press can help your favorite group move into the top twenty prize-winning spots and even into first place!


Please click below and get an understanding of the odds this group is battling against! They are a no-kill shelter in a very poor section of West Virginia and they help ALL kinds of animals. I have been helping them for over a year now, and believe me they've had some rough setbacks, but they keep going! I am inspired by their love for the animals. By the way, some of you already know about this group through the Pocahontas Shelter group and Jaime. If you agree, please go vote and then pass the word on to your other animal loving friends. First place is $10,000...but the other 20 gift amounts will help thoroughly too! Here is the link to their site:

Kerala, located on the southwestern tip of India has been BRUTALLY killing Dogs, Turtles, Rabbits, and all animals for a long time now.

The government, local Environment and Forest Department and the representatives of the government entrusted with PROTECTING the wild life and animals are themselves flouting the laws.

The ILLEGAL act happens in the open in front of children, people and tourists.

The barbarism with which the people, government and everybody is KILLING, SKINNING ALIVE and TORTURING the poor animals is indescribable.

This petition's goal is to target Kerala's tourism industry which is their main source of revenue, by appealing to the citizens of the world to boycott Kerala until this barbarism is stopped.

Please sign this petition and ask others too in order to directly communicate to the authorities that people are participating actively by choosing not to come to Kerala. Please remember if tourism comes down in Kerala, the whole state of the economy is affected severely.

This is the only way of making them see our concern for the pain of those who are helpless and without voices...these animals.

  Alert: Human Consumption of Cats and Dogs in South Korea  
Focus:Animal Welfare
Action Request:Protest
Location:United States
In spite of a 1991 law that prohibits the human consumption of dogs and cats, a flourishing industry exists within the markets of South Korea.

Where do these dogs and cats come from?

Illegal and unsanitary dog farms are hidden away in the countryside where breeders raise their stock for butchers.  30% are stolen from families who love them.  The rest are homeless dogs, captured by butchers and then sold in open markets.  Dogs are electrocuted, strangled, or bludgeoned to death.  The dirty industry is proliferated by the myth that dog meat is healthy.

Cats are also consumed in Korea.  While many Koreans regard dogs as companions, cats are often looked upon as pests and thus suffer worse cruelty.  Companions and strays alike may be killed by being placed in sacks and pounded against the ground.  Sometimes, while still alive, cats are thrown into large pots of boiling water and cooked until liquefied into “cat juice”-- which dealers claim will cure rheumatism.

“Before dogs and cats are killed for meat, they are often times strung up by their legs and beaten.  Dog butchers extol the virtues of their product, linking the adrenaline rush dogs experience as they are bludgeoned to death to enhance male virility.  Cats, viewed as pest animals, are boiled alive so their “juice” can be extracted fos supposed health tonics which butchers claim can be used to treat rheumatism.”
(Seoul Times, Seoul, South Korea, 3/25/06)

Please take action now and voice your outrage to the Ambassador of the Republic of Korea.    (Telephone: 202.939.5600. FAX 202.797.0595, email: korinfo@koreaemb.org) Here is a letter which you may cut and paste and then sign your name to.

The Honorable Tae-Silk Lee
Embassy of the Republic of Korea
2450 Massachusetts Ave., NW
Washington, DC  20008

Dear Mr. Lee:

I am outraged to hear that millions of cats and dogs are electrocuted, strangled, or bludgeoned to death each year in South Korea for food.  As you know, the Korea Livestock and Sanitation Act forbids the cooking, sale and consumption of dog meat, and your Animal Protection Law considers dogs to be “domestic pets.”

I urge you to make every effort to support enforcing existing laws that protect cats and dogs and to support even more harsher measures on their behalf.  Please use your authority and voice to put an end to the torture and massacre of South Korean companion animals.  Until then, I shall continue to boycott Korean-made products and services.

Yours sincerely,

Tom Smith        
2122 South Street
Hammerville, PA

Please take action now and voice your outrage to the Korean National Tourism Organization.  (Telephone: 201.585.0909, FAX 201.585.9041, Email: ny@kntoamerica.com) Here is a letter which you may cut and paste and then sign your name to.

Korean National Tourism Organization
Two Executive Drive, Suite 750
Fort Lee, New Jersey 07024

To whom it may concern:

I am outraged to hear that millions of cats and dogs are electrocuted, strangled, or bludgeoned to death each year in South Korea for food.  As you know, the Korea Livestock and Sanitation Act forbids the cooking, sale and consumption of dog meat, and your Animal Protection Law considers dogs to be “domestic pets.”

I urge you to make every effort to support enforcing existing laws that protect cats and dogs and to support even more harsher measures on their behalf.  Please use your connections and voice to put an end to the torture and massacre of South Korean companion animals.  Until then, I shall continue to boycott Korean-made products and services.

Yours sincerely,

Tom Smith
