Good Morning Good News !!!! Wednesday, April 22, 2015
Wow Weeee it’s cold out
there this morning !!! I made mommey
turn on the heat .... OH I HAVE
EXCITING NEWS ..... something wonderful
has happened ..... this is so ....
just the best .... Ohhhhh .....
a good friend came to visit me !!!
Somebody I love lots
..... and he said .... “Hey Opie .... I miss your dad. Good Old
Vincent.” I had to wipe away a tear
then, I miss my dad too.
And he said, “you know his
birthday is at the end of the month, April 30th to be exact .... and I’ve been
thinking .... that’s the same daycomes to a close .... and
I want to do something special in honor of Vincent ! And you too of course little Orange guy.”
I said ... OHHHHH wonderful
... you gonna make me a Fancy Feast Cake for Dad’s Birthday?
“No, no, my little one,” he
said, “but I’m thinking I’d like to offer a super big DOUBLE YOUR DONATION
challenge. What do you think of
that?”
Oh yeah !!!! That be fun !!!! Double MY Fancy Feast?
“Well not quite my little
friend,” he said, “but how about if I put up a $5,000 challenge .... for .... I’ll match $5,000 in
donations !”
WOW, my friend, that is so
COOL .... so NICE of you .... but is there a catch ?
“Oh no!! He said .... and
I’ll even give you an extra can of Fancy Feast when I come over to write that
check. Now there is one thing .... YOU, my little Orange Buddy, YOU have to
take on the responsibility of telling everybody and urging them to help you
DOUBLE THIS DONATION .... cuz I’m only
gonna double ... what YOU can raise !!!
Oh .... and ... well ... there’s one more catch .... MY $5,000 goes to CATS !!!! Now your other donors
may choose Cats or Dogs ..... but MY
share goes to in honor of Vincent !!!!
“
Oh ok !!! I can work with that !!!!
And so I’m here today
.... to ask for your VOTE and for your
HELP ....
right?
I mean it’s like REALLY
IMPORTANT .... It’s the MOST important
VOTE of the year.
See there’s me, Opie, the
leader of the CAT TEAM and there’s Duke, leader of the DOG TEAM .... and every April our
supporters get to vote for who’s gonna RULE THE REFUGE for the next year. Us CATS have always been the rulers ....
and you know why ...
Cats Rule ... Dogs Drool
.....
SO it’s really quite simple
.....
is also very important cus it’s how we feed and take care of
everybody. At Christmas time everybody
is so generous. And they feed us for
the next couple months. But by April
the pantry is pretty empty again .... and it gets scary .... I mean being
hungry is really bad ..... and we can’t
have no friends here sick and no money to go see the doc .... so we really need
your help in April ... we need your help so we can take care of everybody for
the next few months.
So it’s a put your money
where your mouth is vote !!!!
If you say you love the
animals, if you say you don’t want to see homeless animals, if you say WHY
doesn’t SOMEBODY do something .....
well this is the chance to be the somebody ...
Just $1 feeds FOUR meals
..... $5 keeps the fleas off one of us
for a MONTH ..... $25 updates all the
shots for one of us for a YEAR ..... $47 totally takes care of one CAT for a
whole month
..... $63 totally takes care of one DOG for a whole month
..... $63 totally takes care of one DOG for a whole month
$564 would take care of ME
for a WHOLE YEAR .... well, maybe not ....
but it’d take care of most of my cat friends here who get nums twice a day
.... I have to work xtra hard to bring
Rikki’s Refuge to YOU each and every day and so it takes a little more to take
care of me .... like I really need more
than TWO cans of Fancy Feast every day ... I mean ... I do deserve it ....
don’t I?
$756 takes care of Duke for
a year !!! Yeah ... everything costs
more for dogs .... they eat more .... I
think I should be allowed to eat as much as Duke .... it’s cuz they starve me that I’m only a little guy and he’s so big
.... their flea drops are bigger ...
they take more meds ..... it’s all just
bigger .....
Anyway .... so now YOU can
VOTE and your VOTE will be DOUBLED
So if you like Cats ... like
who doesn’t .... please right here http://rikkisrefuge.org/feedme?purpose=CATS
And if you just want to make
Duke and the dawgs feel good so they don’t get totally trumped you can right here http://rikkisrefuge.org/feedme?purpose=DOGS
Just ONE little catch
..... remember YOUR DONATION WILL BE DOUBLED .... and your donation will generate an equal
number of VOTES FOR THE CATS if you write DOUBLE MY DONATION in the comments
!!!!
Hurry Hurry ... lets see how
quick we can DOUBLE THAT $5,000 !!!!
