… win some grant money to expand and improve our shelter, and I hope it’s okay if I post this reminder to click on http://www.theanimalrescuesite.com and click first to feed an animal and then (at the top of the page) click on “The Shelter Challenge”)?
That brings up a new page where you can then vote for my shelter by typing the words ** Paulding Humane** as the name of the shelter, and Georgia as the state. Then click vote** and **to confirm, on the next page you will see a picture of an animal, and you’re asked to type in the name of the animal to confirm your vote.
We are currently in 13th place in our state and we have gotten as high as 9th.
You can vote from anywhere on the planet, even though the shelter is in the US, and you can do so once a day.
We have until July 26th to get to number one.
Thanks for your help!
Quasi
PS: Of course I would like you to support my shelter, but if you are already voting for your own on the site, please continue to do so, It’s all good!
A quick note to those who reported this one: It’s basically a continuation of this older thread, and Quasi did have permission to run it.
Thanks!
I’m still voting. Sigh, it seems like we never move up. Dern you, Atlanta Animal Rescue Friends!
I voted for Paulding.
(And also clicked the food thing.)
Sorry, my bad. I didn’t know whether I should/could bump it or start a new thread, since it had been a while.
There’s no money involved (except the grant money PHS would receive if they win), so I hope y’all will still help, and I’ll give the mods a “heads-up” the next time!
Thanks
ETA: And thanks to those still clicking. I know you’re doing it for the animals, but it makes me feel good to know that you’re doing it also to help * me*!
Q
Still clicking. I hope that it moves up this week.
We’re back to #12, after several days at #13.
Everybody vote for Paulding! Remember, you shouldn’t have to do the search each time. Your cookie should allow the page to display Paulding and a Vote button just below the search box.
Let’s claw our way back into the Top 10!
Johnny, I believe we’re doing more than the “home folks”, to improve those numbers :)!
31 more days till the finish!
Thanks Everyone!
Q
Thanks for the clip, Quasi, it was wonderful. I made it a favorite so that I can listen to more of their work. YouTube rules.
Oh yeah, I’ll be voting twice today. I’m still at it, and relieved that we’re out of the 13th place. Up! Up! Up! now!
Mood. I tried to find you The Pointer Sisters’ version, but this is as close as I got. I definetely remember The Pointer’s doing that tune, though!
And thank you for your support and caring!
Y’all are the best friends I never met!
Q
Well, here we are… 18 days to the finish line.
I don’t know if we can place close enough for my shelter to get anything, but like that cartoon showing the frog about to be swallowed by the heron, I’m not giving up!
Whatever can happen and whoever can make it happen, it’s going to happen if it’s meant to, and guess what?
If it doesn’t happen for Paulding Humane Society, at least it will have happened for some organizations, and some animals’ lives will be (will have been) spared.
Also, it warms my heart to know that y’all came together because I asked you to.
Thanks, Johnny for keeping it going, and thanks to my Doper Kids for voting and feeding every day.
Bill
Number 11 today. Still out of the Top Ten, but better than #12!
… we’re headed for the finish line, and before I forget, I just wanted to thank everyone who participated in helping my humane society, Paulding Humane.
Y’all were great, and as Yogi Berra once said, “it ain’t over till it’s over”, but I’m a realist too and so I know it isn’t always possible to get a “last minute save”.
Be that as it may, here’s the link once again, just in case.
Thanks once more and I love you guys!
Quasi
Forgot a special thanks to my friend Johnny L A for his very kind assistance in helping to keep this going.
Q
I have clicked! Must remember to keep doing it though…
Glad to help, Quasi!
I got today’s vote in, and we’re still at #11. Man, I wish we could pull people together so we can end in the Top 10! It may not get any money for Paulding, butit would be a sybiolic victory for a small-town shelter to be in the Top 10 against Atlanta.
So let’s try to DO that, these last 2 days? Move us into at least the Top Ten, as John says?
Could y’all e-mail/call/tell everyone you know, and/or hand 'em a Post-It with the url on it?
I been goin’ nuts while my SIL is in the hospital on account of her stroke, but I have not lost a second of time telling people about animal welfare, getting on my “podium” about how it was US who domesticated THEM, and where would we be NOW w/o our 4-footers?
Thank Y’all SO MUCH for what you’ve already done and **PLEEEEEEEZE **continue to feed to click, even if PHS doesn’t win the money!
We gotta save 'em! I know the economy sucks right now, but if you’ll give it some thought, they really helped to advance our civilization.
Also, I know I am speaking loosely,(meaning the animals we domesticated didn’t include JUST cats and dogs), but because all our shelters are over-populated by unwanted pets, I hope you will support THIS one or your own with a click to feed and vote.
Please remember this if nothing else: Those of them we domesticated, we are responsible for.
And yes, I know I ended that last sentence with a predicate, thank you very much!
Quasi
Just ignore the bit where I misspelled ‘symbolic’. ‘Sybioloc’? I don’t know how the hell that happened!
