Own a white cat?
White cats have fair skin and are prone to sunburn -- especially on their ears, where their fur is sparse. If your white cat goes out in the sun, believe it or not, it's a good idea to put sunscreen on the ears!"The dog has seldom been successful in pulling man up to his level of sagacity, but man has frequently dragged the dog down to his. "
- James Thurber
With so many homeless dogs and cats, PAWS is in need of funds. A generous donor hopes to raise this money by matching all gifts up to $10,000. Please help us get this much needed funding!
