		<description>Something that might be of interest to you...

AB 1634 – The California Healthy Pets Act - Saves Taxpayers Millions of Dollars, Cuts the Need to Euthanize Millions of Animals, and Relieves Overcrowded Animal Shelters.  

AB 1634 asks that most dogs and cats in the State of California be spayed or neutered. More than 20 common sense exemptions are provided in the bill, including for show and sporting dogs, law enforcement dogs, dogs used in search and rescue, pets that are too old or in poor health, and guide, service and signal animals.

This is the right legislation at the right time – a common-sense, humane and taxpayer-friendly solution to a real and costly problem.</description>

		<description>Thanks for that great posting - I&#039;m a director of Animal Alliance and this is a well-written piece of a serious matter.

I also wanted to tell you that I&#039;m fostering a cat right now that we pulled off the streets.  He&#039;s mute, deaf and has a birth deformity that has one of his legs bent backwards and unuseable.  He&#039;s been to the vet, been fixed and interestingly can&#039;t have the defomity fixed or even removed as it may complicate things more.  He is quite feral and not trusting me yet. Though I&#039;m fostering him it may be impossible to adopt him ever due to all of his &quot;issues&quot;. 

It is so interesting that you wrote this piece because he is residing - and may reside there for a while! - in Zoe&#039;s apartment.  Thought you&#039;d like to know that...</description>

		<description>Thatgirlcanwrite is an appropriate blog nickname. I have never read anything written so well on this subject.

I could point out the sentences that made me smile and those that tugged at my heart.

I will definitely be back to read more.</description>

		<description>That is a wonderful sentiment Lorette. Zoe would have loved that animals will get some care and attention in her memory, and by posting this, you have done a service by educating the public about the need not only for monetary donations, but personal responsibility in pet ownership. Kudos
