Tales, Tails and Feathers of New York -- PCA

This blog is divided into two sections. The first deals with experiences in rescue/placement of homeless cats and dogs. The latter focuses on the treatment of wildlife in our city parks, specifically, Canada geese. These birds have recently been targeted by government officials for a 2/3rds "reduction" in population. Thousands have been cruelly rounded up and gassed in NY over the past several years. This is an issue that cries out for address and is covered substantially in this blog.

About Me

PCA
"Enter all the information about yourself that you want others to know." What do I want others to know about me? Interesting question. The answer will be less complex and likely to be discovered in the context of the blog. One's self is found in one's writing and doings in life (I suppose) as opposed to what one says about one's self. For now (9-08) simply to update the picture. -- My beautiful dogs, Tina, Chance and me.
