the same day! -= prompted me to write to the site - and it reached
one person - I guess that's not a bad average, come to think of it.

Subject: Re: [columbiacountyfreecycle] Pet Adoptions
Thank you VERY much for posting that message this morning. I was
about to
post that I have two adorable baby bunnies for adoption. I would have
been
sick if they had gone to an abuser. I think I will ask around at my
kids'
school instead and see if there is anyone who's looking for a pet
bunny.
Thank you again.
Lane
No matter where they go, make sure the people know the responsibility
they are undertaking. Make sure they have enough of the right kind
of space to keep the pets. ; Make sure they know it is a 24/7/365 job
that will cost money as well. ; If there are children in the house,
make sure they will be supervised and taught how to handle the
animals, and how to treat them right. Make sure they have enough
time, space, concern and love to care for these little ones. ; Send
them to a home you wouldn't mind growing up in!
Barbara
