PLEASE NOTE

PLEASE ADDRESS ANY QUERIES ABOUT ANY OF THE ANIMALS POSTED ANYWHERE ON THIS SITE TO THE CONTACTS PROVIDED IN THE LINKED NAMES AND EMBEDDED LINKS IN THE  PICTURES OF THE PETS.   THE NS HOMELESS PET PROJECT DOES NOT ACTIVELY PARTICIPATE IN THE ADOPTION PROCESS. 

WHY DO I DO THIS?   IN THE COURSE OF RESEARCHING ANIMAL WELFARE ISSUES FOR A BOOK THAT I'M WORKING ON, ONE THING QUICKLY BECAME QUITE CLEAR.   MOST OF THE KIND, ANIMAL LOVING FOLKS OUT THERE WHO  ARE LOOKING FOR A PET SIMPLY DO NOT KNOW ABOUT THE ADOPTION OPTIONS AVAILABLE TO THEM.

WHY IS THAT?  IN THIS BUSY WORLD, MOST PEOPLE DON'T HAVE TIME TO WORRY ABOUT ANIMAL WELFARE ISSUES.  ALL THEY REALLY WANT IS A NICE PET.

SO, WHILE I WILL CONTINUE TO ADVOCATE FOR THE LEGISLATIVE AND SOCIAL CHANGES THAT ARE NEEDED TO MAKE THIS A BETTER WORLD FOR THE ANIMALS .... THIS SITE IS SIMPLY A NON JUDGEMENTAL, NON PREACHY OPPORTUNITY FOR FOLKS TO FIND OUT HOW TO ADOPT A GOOD PET FROM RESCUE.

PS ... WHY WILL I CONTINUE TO ADVOCATE?  WHY WORRY ABOUT THE ANIMALS WHEN THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS THAT NEED FIXING IN THIS WORLD?  THINK OF IT AS WORKING AT THE ROOT OF THE PROBLEM: )))
