READ THIS AND LEARN

Most of the pets that come to Helping Strays need very basic medical care. Spay or neuter, vaccines and parasite screening and prevention are generally all that is required. Sometimes, though, a pet arrives injured or ill. Many medical problems are treatable and the pet, once healed, can live a normal, full and happy life. Sometimes the injuries and medical conditions are extensive and very costly to treat. Orphaned puppies and kittens also need extra help,The Pet-In-Need Fund is used exclusively for expenses involved in treating the injured, ill, abused and orphaned animals who make their way to Helping Strays.The Pet-In-Need Fund allows us to take in these animals and provide the treatment they so desperately need.

Ranging from burns and broken bones, through heartworm treatment and eye surgery, Pet-In-Need gets cats and dogs with treatable problems on the road to health and a permanent, loving home. Often, several animals will be enrolled in PIN simultaneously. In 2013, 13 pets were helped by the Pet-In-Need Fund. We have already surpassed that in 2014.

If you knew what these poor dogs and cats go through it would break your heart. Please hel... http://t.co/PXYtoQ1oCN

WELCOME

Just want to take a second to welcome Jim McConnell to our list of contributors.  You can visit Jim via his library page.
What great information he has to share about Quaker Parrot genetics.

CONTRIBUTORS

I would like to take this opportunity to invite any authors from around the world to give some thought to contributing to our publication.  You have the chance to make a difference.

FRUSTRATION

Today I am feeling a little frustrated because we don't seem to be adding any new Contributors or Articles. Again, I invite those of you who have something to share on our publication to contact us.  I am glad to provide a "Landing Page", a "Library" for your articles and a direct link to your blog or website.  Just contact us and let us know.
Information to everyone is the best thing that can happen for our feathered friends.  Be they Companion, Rescue or Wild, education is the only way we can help them.
Please don't be afraid of allowing your knowledge to be given to others.  All of us have something to learn and it is the responsibility of all of us to share information for the betterment of the Avian World.
Thank you for listening to my rant..

HAPPY NEW YEAR

This New Year brings us the opportunity to begin a new journey. Not only have we started to follow a new path but the fork in the road ahead will also bring many new challenges. The direction we choose to take is only questioned by our asking ourselves if what lies ahead is going to bring peace to the world in which we live. 
May all of my family and friends and everyone else around the world live in peace and happiness and prosperity by taking the right direction at the fork in the road. 
Happy New Year and may God Bless all of us.

FORUM

Well,
Christmas is over and we not have the New Year to look forward to.  Along with the new year, we all will have a great adventure ahead of us.  Plan your route and keep to the trail if at all possible.  Seek that which will bring peace and goodness to all and let the past be just that.  Look to the future and what we can do to make it better for all and then make the commitment to do whatever you can to see the best come to pass. Remember, only you can prevent the past from repeating it's self.
Happy New Year
