Pawfectly Fabulous!

If you don’t own a dog, at least one, there is not necessarily anything wrong with you, but there may be something wrong with your life. ~ Roger Caras

I think dogs are the most amazing creatures; they give unconditional love. For me they are the role model for being alive. ~Gilda Radner

Who among us hasn't envied a cat's ability to ignore the cares of daily life and to relax completely? ~ Karen Brademeyer

If there were to be a universal sound depicting peace, I would surely vote for the purr. ~Barbara L. Diamond

The Doris Day Animal Foundation wants you to be "Pawfectly Fabulous" by taking part in its eleventh annual Spay Day USA on February 22, 2005. Whether you pay to have an animal spayed or neutered, wear your heart on your sleeve (or rather chest) by sporting a Spay Day USA T-shirt, or adorn envelopes with our "Spaytacular" spay/neuter stickers, be sure to show the world how much you care about animals.

Together, we can accomplish the crowning achievement of ensuring that every companion animal enjoys a long, happy, and healthy reign in a loving home. Visit our Web site for all the tools you’ll need to participate in Spay Day USA 2005.

And don’t forget that special canine or feline in your life when thinking of ways to recognize the ones you love this month. Those of us who have opened our hearts and homes to a dog or cat know how much the relationship with a cherished animal companion can enrich our lives. Whether they treat us like adoring subjects or expect to be treated like kings and queens, look at us with adoration or indifference, make us feel noble or humble (or both!), nothing makes a home feel more like a castle than sharing it with a dog or cat. In return, the least we can do is ensure these animals receive the royal treatment they so richly deserve.
