OK I have been very slack this year in not organising or facilitating a major fundraiser so everyone got a year off .. that's my pressie to you LOL!
But as we are entering into that time of year when it is more blessed to give rather than receive I would ask any and all members to think a little bit about causes in the past we have supported here and perhaps in our normal lives and take the opportunity to perhaps share the good will with people and animals who are much less well off than we are ...
For me this has taken the form of renewing my adoption at Kaarakin Black Cockatoo Conservation Centre ... this year I adopted Mother and Son Wubby and Balar ... I made the donation on behalf of my Brother and Sis-in law and family , so I am cheating and that's my Xmas pressie for them as well
Others to think of ?

I've been looking at homeless pets I think it's called
It provides VET services and food to pets of homeless people who keep their dogs etc
Have been meaning to organise something with prizes for pets. But haven't got to it
Might be "Pets of the homeless" I will have to check

Linda did try to take a step back from new incoming animals during the lockdowns as she lost income to support them during the worst of it all - but it was a epic fail, its in her blood to rescue critters and she cant say no!
