Best Wishes for Whichever Holiday you are Keeping Now...

...and please don't forget that this is the Season for giving - and that some creatures give ALL the time.

Animals help people to see and hear.

Animals are good companions to people who have no other companions, and no access to the sort of communication that you are enjoying at this moment.

Don't forget them. A couple of quid from you can mean life for an animal - and perhaps a better and happier life for an animal AND a human being.

There are a lot of animal charities. I support the National Animal Welfare Welfare Trust because it's a small charity and I like its ethics and what it has achieved over the years, but if you want something more global, you might want to look at
The International Fund for Animal Welfare . Or you might want to get involved in something closer to home.

The important thing is that you DO get involved, somehow, somewhere, because - one day - you, or someone close to you, might need an animal to be eyes, or ears, or a friend.

Please give as generously as you can to an animal charity. The charities need the money - and people need the animals.
