Dear Friends,
It is with great enthusiasm that I announce
my candidacy for Mayor of the World. Although I've been told that no such
position exists, I am not one to be deterred by details!
The theme of my candidacy is "There's No
Place Like Home*." In other words, I believe that every four legged friend
should have a permanent, loving home. Over the next few months, I will
be sharing with you some of my ideas for how I will work to make the world
a better place through my "There's No Place Like Home" programs.
Tops on my list is something very near and
dear to my heart -helping my buddies get back home when they get lost.
My solution is simple. We need to get some better communication going
on around here. I propose the following:
- Contact your HOA board members and
tell them that you want special permission for LOST PET signs. These signs
are very important and should not be ripped down according to the normal
"temporary sign rules!" Give me a break!! Your pet is an important family
member for goodness sake!
- Get your pet an ID tag! I don't
care if they "never go outside." Accidents happen and they happen to even
the best pet parents! They have a great little machine at the front of
PetsMart that makes the cutest tags for mere pennies. There is no excuse!
Do it today!
- Get your pet microchipped. For less
than $60, you can have an AVID microchip inserted into your furry friend.
It is painless and can't be lost like a collar or tag. If your pet gets
lost, the person that finds him or her can take your pet to a local vet
or shelter and it will help you get your pet back home.
- Get your pet fixed. Fixed pets are
less likely to wander away looking for love in all the wrong places. One
time I followed this cute little girl home and when my mom finally found
me a few days later, she took me straight
to the vet! I've personally never noticed the difference and I know that
I am still quite the ladies
man,
