The Support Our Shelters 2nd annual Spring raffle for the Blizzard
Memorial Fund is underway!

Many of you know Susann and I as the Friends of Ferret Shelters folks.
You also may remember that we have had to temporarily halt our raffles
because of Paypal's new "no raffles" rule. It has been such an honor
to work with the ferret community and help shelters in need that we
couldn't bear to just say goodbye and close up shop. So when SOS asked
if we would be willing to run their raffles to give Kat a break we said
"YOU BET!".

So just say NO to more snow and YES to the SOS Spring raffle at:
http://www.supportourshelters.blogspot.com/ and get a load of the
unbelievable prizes.

The wonderful world of Wii! Yes, that's right a brand new Wii. Hours
and hours of fun for everyone in the family - no gaming experience
required for those of us who aren't toddlers or teenagers. Just say
OUI to your own, brand new Wii!!!!! WEEEEEEE! Donated by Cathy Tarzia
