what the address

Friday July 10, 2009, 1:10 am
I don't have the possibility to donate, but I want to protest. I hate the thought of any horses being slaughtered. It's also impossible for me to accept that horses are being slaughtered for their meat. In the Nordic mythology the horse is a creature which belongs to the gods so eating horses is completely wrong to me.

Sometimes I wish I was really rich.

Friday July 10, 2009, 10:45 am
If I were a billionaire I'd have enough money to save ALL the animals in the world but unfortunately for me and animals world-wide, the best I can do is pray and fwd. Can someone please answer dve d's question, "what's the address?" Thnx Rebecca!!

Friday July 10, 2009, 1:25 pm
Thanks Rebecca..Have forwarded for you..Hope they get the help they need..
Noted..

Thanks for passing this on at this point I can only offer up a prayer that someone is able to help these horses.

Feathers Foundation Inc
Feathers Foundation is a non-profit 501(c)(3) Foundation created for the purpose of rescuing animals from neglect, euthanasia, and slaughter.

Circle L Ranch was purchased in August 2006 in response to the enormous need for a horse sanctuary. The combination of the closing of Premarin Ranches in Canada and the huge excess of horses in the United States is resulting in thousands of horses being sent to the slaughterhouse in Canada and here in the US. These horses are very young, very old, or in between. It does not seem to matter whether they are friendly, broke to ride, or have won trophys at the racetrack. If they are no longer wanted,they all meet the same end.

Saturday July 11, 2009, 4:28 pm
Thanks Dave for enlighten us about Feathers Foundation Inc, and thank God for their existence. The crux of our society really are the slaughterhouses where unimaginable cruelty takes place. Once human beings embraced vegetarianism, our planet will become more peaceful and all forms of animal abuse will be viewed as what it is: ABUSE. As it stands, how can we say that beating a dog is wrong, yet dragging a little calf into a slaughter facility is acceptable, huh? Where is the logic here? That's why eating meat is wrong. We have the brains (at least we should) to feed ourselves by not having the blood of innocent tormented animals on our hands. Anyway, I just needed to vent, it felt good.

I have rescued a horse and two donkies from a slaughterhouse and believe me, they are fun to have and they also eat the dog dry pellits.

'This just came to me via email from Chastity Rogers/ HSUS:
Just wanted to let everyone know that I have contacted several people about this and it looks like there is a rescue group that our Equine Services group has spoken to and they are immobilizing some help on the ground in Arizona.

It is called Equine Voices Rescue and Sanctuary in AZ
http://www.equinevoices.org/. If you have people that are concerned and want to help, they should contact this group as the point organization on this situation.

Our Arizona state director is aware of the situation as well and is organizing her network to do the same there....
TERRIBLE SITUATION! Thanks for bringing it to my attention. I hope we have been of some help.' Chastity

Anyone wanting to donate via PayPal can donate using circlelranch@gmail.com as the email address. I know these people personally and can guarantee that the money will go to the horse rescue!! Please put 27 Mares in the notes.

Hi Rebecca...I have donated $50 using my credit card. The gift has not been processed yet and I have to say that I feel a little nervous about giving my number out....I only hope that the donation site is safe and I wont regret what I did...Can you please reply to ease my mind...Thankyou Leanne

Tuesday July 14, 2009, 10:06 am
The last couple of times I have tried to check the site, First Giving,it is down for technical problems. Does anyone know where we are. This is not good! If people are going there to contribute, they can't!!!!!

Tuesday July 14, 2009, 2:16 pm
i just need a place to donate, I also have some friends in texas I will send this to. But I can't afford much only 25.oo but you got it as soon as you tell me where is a good place. The horses are beautiful. none of Gods beautiful creatures should die this way. I wish my dad were still living in california. Sending to my friend in California.

Wednesday July 15, 2009, 9:08 am

Folks,

To ease Leanne's mind along with every one else: I personally use the site to donate and have never had a problem. It IS secure! Also, if you need to donate using PayPal, just use circlelranch@gmail.com as the email address and put 27 Mares in the notes field. The money will get to where it needs to be. They still need donations, so please crosspost!!

Thank you, everyone for caring so much about each of these lives! I know we are all facing tough times, but what is a life worth? Surely, we can make a difference!!

Tuesday July 21, 2009, 7:41 pm
It sounds as if the horses are safe thanks to all those who donated and loved these poor animals.

Wednesday July 22, 2009, 6:30 am
Hi,
