All the Creatures

I was contacted by email by someone to help promote feedpet.net so I checked it out. First I went to the website and all they want people to do is click on the “feed me” button. When I hover over it, it looks like a wordpress ad plugin, that was red flag number one. Next it does not take you anywhere but the same place with a thanks for clicking. If it was a legitimate ad clicking for money then the click should take you to the ad being clicked on. This looks like an attempt to commit fraud on an advertiser. Next I looked for any information as to who they are or who they donate to. All the clicks take me to other websites that are full of ads and little information. So then I looked up the Whois on the domain name and here is where it got interesting.

The domain name was bought in Poland and the website is hosted there too. Looks like they have no interest in animal shelters in the USA at all. So save your time and energy and DON’T VISIT FEEDPET.NET. All you are doing by clicking on those buttons and ads is lining the pockets of someone in Poland.

If you happen to know that feedpet.net is a legit website then please leave a comment and let me know. You will need to show some sort of proof like a link to a 501 non-profit listing or the actual shelter they sent money to.

I was amazed to see a video on TV a few weeks back showing children in water, being held by adults and dolphins swimming around them. This was a therapy session with dolphins. It should not surprise me since dogs and horses have long been used as therapy animals.

If you would like to see dolphin therapy for yourself then here is my personalized invitation - go and check out Island Dolphin Care at islanddolphincare.org

They have videos that are on YouTube for you to watch and be amazed.

I visit several animal message boards. My main purpose is to find some interesting news and links to other websites that cover the rarer animal news stories. It is rare that I leave a comment on the boards and even rarer that I end up in a heated debate on one, such as what happened a few days ago.

A simple post about a dog rescue escalated into name calling of those who held the management jobs at the rescue. Then the trolls took over and completely turned it into a discussion about killing wildlife. The message board administrator got on the ball and removed the discussion. Then one day later someone started up another thread about the wildlife killing again. This was not about hunting but a discussion about the right to kill any wildlife that comes on to your property that you don’t want there. Dumb me had to jump in an mention that wildlife is protected by laws and Fish and Game authorities in each state. At that point I got jumped on!!

I think I am back to being a lurker on the message boards for the next few weeks at least.
