Help find Snowball

[funkatron]

I'm not gonna say that this is a particularly rational use of my time and funds. I can't say that I don't logically see the reason why they had to take the boy's dog. But dammit, I fucking cried when I heard about this. And now I can do something about it, maybe.

I just want this kid to be comforted and loved and taken care of. I think this is a way I can do that. If you do too, think about helping, or at least spreading this around.

(And yeah, if it matters, I already have given a fair bit to other charities. I don't think this should be anyone's top priority, but it's something I'm choosing to do in addition to the other ways I'm trying to help).

AVMA reports that Snowball is "safe"

Associated Press reports of a little boy becoming physically ill after being separated from his dog Snowball and a woman offering to trade her diamonds so her pets could be rescued may yet have a happy outcome. Snowball has been rescued and soon will be reunited with his young friend. And after three attempts to rescue the dogs belonging to the woman with the diamonds, the waters have subsided to a point where another attempt will be made.

Not much detail. I wish I knew more.

that is so cool that kid is getting his dog back... i hope that other woman and everyone else get their pets back too.

A number of my friends recommend noahswish.org as a worthwhile charity.

We've raised several thousand dollars from my cat lovers' groups for Noah's Wish.
