Exciting News to Share

October 5, 2011 //  by Pamela

Exciting News!

You may remember my post for the BISSELL-BlogPaws Blog Carnival in which I told the story of adopting Shadow from the Tompkins County SPCA in Casting a Long Shadow – A Pet Adoption Story.

Well, guess what? I was a runner-up in the contest winning a $1,000 grant for the Tompkins County SPCA. Hooray!

And the post I thought was a likely winner, Kim Clune’s tale of adopting her bird Beelzebub, was the other runner up.

But the grand prize winner of the carnival receiving a $2,500 grant for her Black & Orange Cat Foundation, is Robin Craft. 

Congratulations, Robin and Kim, for writing such great posts. And thank you to BlogPaws and BISSELL for hosting the carnival and making the gifts to our favorite animal organizations.

    Well done, Pamela:) I haven’t read the winning story, off to do that now. I hope Oonagh finds her forever home soon. She looks lovely:)

    Congratulations on the big win! That’s fantastic! It was such a terrific contest and I am so happy so many animals will be helped as a result of all of the entrants’ dedication.

    Oonagh is so cute. For some reason, beagles are one of the hardest dogs to adopt out in Nova Scotia shelters. It makes no sense to me. Who can resist those ears?
