Giving Thanks

HIYA!!   SAVANNAH HERE!!!

The week is getting shorter…and FB Leo’s move is getting closer…but we have lots to be so very thankful for…

• Leo is alive and has a bright new future…thanks to all your help and kindness and encouraging words
• MJ is doing great on her new insulin and still luving her Harrington’s canned food and making lots of peeps fall in love with her loving, playful and gentle spirit
• Based on all your comments from my request about what to do with the “Hope Chest” funds collected for Mary (aka MJ)…here is what we are gonna do:
  • First, one donor specified that their gift must be used for some special items from Mollie and Alfie’s Shop…so Mollie and Alf will put that together and send it to Basil’s typist, Miss Laura at Harringtong’s Pet Foods
  • Second, we still have 50GBP as a gift voucher for Mary which will be sent as a cash donation SPECIFIED  for Mary’s medical care and that will be delivered personally by Basil’s typist, Miss Laura
• I have my pawsome furrever home and we are gonna keep tabs on FB Leo (think he will become Cousin Leo) and MJ
• We know we can make a difference in the lives of adult rescue cats and dogs…4 paws at a time

And so with great humbleness…I, and FB Leo and MJ all join in Pepi Smart Dogs Thankful Thursday Blog Hop…

I heard from Basil’s typist, Miss Laura, that she has visited MJ (aka Mary)…and here is a bit of what she had to say about that visit…

” I popped to see MJ last night and I think I have fallen even more in love with her! MJ is an angel and continues to delight everyone she meets. The entire time she was there she was wagging her tail and pawing (I don’t know if that’s the correct word) I think you call it kneeding when Savvy talks about it.

She is such a delight and as expected gets on with everyone and everything – dogs, cats, kids, adults you name it she just wanted to be near people. ”

Here are a couple of new photos of MJ exploring her digs at the Blue Cross Rescue in Thirsk, England…

What’s in there??

OMC!! What is that?

Of course I have to give you a couple of photos of FB Leo and ME!…no, no…not together…not hardly…heh…heh

Monday Meowsie News…An Award So Special

HIYA!!   SAVANNAH HERE!!!

First…no news yet on Mary (aka MJ…heh…heh)…just yet…but more will be coming soon

But I do have some news I have not been able to report…

…I did receive a pawtastic award July 8th…yup…my staff is a slackard…she kept putting it off…so finally I can accept and give thanks for the kindness of another paw blogger for acknowledging me with an award…woo hoo!!

So what a surprise to receive this very new, and special award…from All Fur One and One Fur All…and my furriend Pickles chose me and others and for this and I humbly accept and thank her…

The Helping Paw Award

So, whose paws do you think those belong to??  Heh…heh…I did not guess…but they are a very favorite wild animal from down under…A Kangaroo…doesn’t get more special than that!!

So Pickles says this about the Award she created…

“HI Ev-furry body..itz me Pickles..in case you don’ know I am a rescue cat.

Mum rescued me when I waz in a deadly situation..in fact I was in a PICKLE..which iz how I gotz my name!

I was very close to being at the rainbow bridge and waz saved just in time..

My story iz on http://dinz1234.wordpress.com or Fozzie blog..

I haz seen and heardz some amazing stories of helpin on the bloggiez that humanz haz .

Storiez of helpingz animalz and helpingz humanz wiff their animalz and it touchez me

**wipez a leaky eye…so I asked mumz if I could makez my own specialz but very simplez awardz for sharing…

So mumz helped me and we made one

Itz called THE HELPING PAW AWARD

TA DA …

All you have to do is give itz to someone who has helped a animalz ..any animalz or an animalz human..say thankz you to the person you gotz it from..which iz easy because bloggerz is so politez..

First, I have already linked back to Pickles…that part is done.

Now to paw it forward as Foster Brofur Leo would say…

FB Leo and I consulted…as you can imagine…it was not simple to paw this award forward to only  a few…so many of you in Blogville, Anipal Twitter and Face Book have stepped forward to help Leo find his furrever castle, to assist with Saving The Royals, to work hard to find Mary (aka MJ) a furrever castle of her very own (only to be diverted by her recent diagnosis of diabetes)…and so many other projects I have asked you to help me with…

So, we choose to paw forward this award to all involved in the SAVE LEO CAMPAIGN…

…and also to efurryone who has worked so furry hard to help sweet Mary find her own true furrever castle

PURRlease…accept this pawsome award…show it as a badge on you bloggy proudly…I will be lookin’ around to learn if you are all able to give yourselves a pat on the tail to acknowledge how much you do to help rescue adult cats and dogs…

You are one PAWSOME rescue community…proud to be a bitty part of all this

And again…thank you, thank you to Dinndermintz and furramily for pawing this award to me and Foster Brofur Leo.

Paw Pats, Savannah
