Forever Home Wanted For These Adorable Animals

I have a wonderful and caring young man in my classroom who works at our Vets office. He knows I am a sucker for an animal in need but with two elderly dogs with health problems and our new rescue dog we just don't have any room in our home for another pet.

Kyle knew I love animals and brought me photos of these beautiful animals that will soon wind up in our local animal shelter. The Vet where Kyle works has been taking care of these animals since they were brought in to him but living in a Vets office is no place for an animal to live. Each and every one of these animals just needs to find one person who could open their hearts to the possibility of an unconditional love like you've never known.

Please remember that there are hundreds of dogs and cats like these that have been abandoned and would love to fill your home with love and joy. Thank you so much.

***************UPDATE***************************

All of the cats has been taken by a local rescue organization. They still need a home so as soon as I get more info I will post it. The puppy Matilda still needs a home. I will be updating his information Monday when he is scheduled to be send to the pound. 

Shameless Promotion And Vote Begging

One of the things i was planning to do on my site was start a series of articles about contests and sweepstakes. I figured I'd do that this summer when work wasn't as pressing. Then I received word that I'm one of the eight FINALISTS for a recipe contest. The grand prize would be a trip to the BlogHer Conference. Don't get me wrong, that would be an amazing experience and I would be able to learn things I could bring back to my students. What I'm hoping to win is one of the $500 gift cards for FREE groceries.

This puts the ThriftyMaven in a bit of a peculiar situation. In order to win I need votes. Vote contests are my least favorite contests because you have to beg and plead with friends and strangers to vote for your entry. I'm asking you to consider helping out a starving blogger by voting for my recipe.

So in a big departure from my normal format I'm begging, pleading, crawling on hands and knees for you to go to:

and vote for my recipe

Thanks ahead of time.
