igive (igive.com) Some FML members may not know about iGive or what it provides for charities (shelters). iGive is a surfing site that your clicks provide pennies each day that are donated to your designated charity and it doesn't cost anything to you. Thank you to those that surf for us. Your surfing really does make a difference! And ditto for all our supporters too! At the bottom of my signature, and many others, there is a link to click on to take you to iGive to sign up to surf for that particular charity. The site is a little difficult to figure out but once you are registered you can click on a tab at the top of the iGive homepage (there are 5 I think - shopping, myigive, specials, etc.) and after that page loads you can hit your back button and it should credit your charity with 1 cent. If you've purchased something through the stores at iGive the charities get a percentage of the postage (each store sets the percentage and it is listed - they have stores like PetSmart, Pets.com, Borders.com, Barnes and Noble, health stores, etc.) and then you also earn 4 cents for each click (total clicks it will credit us is 5 each day). It only takes a few minutes to surf the site to earn donations for your charity and each month iGive sends out a check to the charities. So please do sign up for your favorite charity and help earn donations for them at no cost to you! Surgeries Two surgeries yesterday. Spleen and pancreatic tumor removal on Maxim and hairball (surprise) and left adrenal removal on K.C. Larry wouldn't tell me what the foreign object (aliens????) was on the phone so I had to wait till I got down there last night. Wow. Two rather large (never would have passed out of the stomach) hairballs. No wonder K.C. was thin, although his appetite was good and his stools were just perfect. No indication other than the thinness. So surgeries went well and the boys are eating their recipe well and sleeping well so hopefully they'll heal quickly. Larry was a bit disappointed. Maxim REALLY loves Larry. When we got there in the morning he paced the cage till I took him out and handed him to Larry,then he stretched as far as he could to shower Larry with kisses. Well after surgery Larry asked for a kiss and Maxim wouldn't kiss him. Larry's feelings were hurt. As soon as Maxim is feeling better I'll take him back so Larry can get his face washed with Maxim kisses again. :-) Everyone have a good weekend and don't forget to spend some extra play/cuddle time with your little ones. Hugs to all. tle Troy Lynn Eckart Ferret Family Services http://www-personal.ksu.edu/~sprite/ffs.html http://www.geocities.com/Petsburgh/Haven/5481/ Please sign up to support our charity http://www.iGive.com/html/ssi.cfm?cid=46&mid=58395 [Posted in FML issue 3148]
