Helping A Wonderful Cause

Lady has mentioned her new favourite charity here before, Safe Pet Ottawa. This charity provides foster homes for pets for women fleeing domestic abuse. On the weekend, Lady and Man went to the inaugural Safe Pet Masquerade Ball. Lady heard about this because one of her coworkers is a member of the Safe Pet Board.


We were left home alone for hours, in the wind. We were very good and the house was fine when our people came back.  We would like to be annoyed with them, but they brought home a basket of goodies for us. They bought it in the silent auction. We even got a treat right away, in the middle of the night.  That never happens.




The first wonderful treats, little cupcakes, with paper
While we don't like to be left alone, we are glad our people were able to help out such a wonderful cause.

  3. Yes, I think you were right not to be mad at Lady and Man for leaving you along on this particular occasion. Just make sure they don't make a habit of it.

  4. We guess it was okay for your pawrents to go out as long as they brought that basket of goodies home. It sounds like a very worthy cause.

  5. What an important event. Victims are often afraid to leave for fear of what will happen to their fur friends since most shelters won't take pets. This is an important mission that allows victims to have option for reunification.

  7. We need more Safe Pet Ottawa's, I don't think people understand no one wants to leave their pets behind. Mom had a lady on probation and she was ugly mean she chopped the family pets head off to hurt her family. Don't worry the lady ended up in prison where she belonged.

    Aroo to you,

  10. What a grreat cause, and a FUN way to raise money for it! More and more shelters are allowing dogs, because people are starting to realize what dangers the family pets face in domestic violence situations. Texas recently expanded protective orders to protect the pets too!

  12. It is good to get annoyed at your prents when they go out but if they bring treats home they are easily forgiven.

    Your Pals,
