If you’ve got some free time and are looking for a chuckle, check out the finalists in the Purina Poop Confessional contest. Personally, I’m cheering for Gericho.

Mutts Comics
If you’re like me, and you love reading the comic strip Mutts, then you’ll want to click on over to the Mutts comics website to check out their holiday gift items. This year they’ve introduced the highly-collectible Mutts figurines, and Patrick McDonnell has designed a new “Gift of Nothing” box, which will be available soon. It’s the perfect gift for the person who has everything: nothing!
Updated: The Gift of Nothing, 2006 edition, is now available!

National Animal Shelter Appreciation Week 2006
November 5th through 11th is National Animal Shelter Appreciation Week, sponsored by HSUS. If you remember to visit the homepage of AnimalSheltering.org during that week, you’ll be able to participate in polls and drawings to win some great prizes. Featured are many items donated by Mutts comic creator Patrick O’Donnell. The event is primarily aimed at shelter staff, but if you go and read their stories, I’m sure it will be an eye-opening experience. Perhaps it will even be the incentive you need to volunteer.

Disaster Preparedness Kit
United Animal Nations does a wonderful job of helping pets and their owners in times of crisis. They’re now stocking items in the UAN online store to help pet owners prepare for emergencies. Visit their store and you’ll find items like first aid kits, collapsible food bowls, temporary ID tags, or the best item of all, the Pet Emergency Starter Kit. This kit contains everything you need to start preparing your animals for disaster: a customizable Animal Disaster Planning Handbook, first aid kit, collapsible bowl, emergency slip leash, two temporary ID tags and a roomy tote bag. At just $47, it’s a great way to buy a little peace of mind.

Holiday cards from HSUS and ASPCA
It’s that time of year again—the time right after Halloween when we all have to start planning for the holiday season. I received some email notices from The Humane Society of the United States and the ASPCA about their holiday store offerings, so thought I’d post a couple of their more interesting items. From HSUS, I love their holiday cards, and am leaning towards purchasing a box of “Snow Dudes”. From the ASPCA’s online store, you can also buy holiday cards, as well as ornaments and even wine personalized with your pet’s photo on the label. Both organizations have great gift ideas for pet lovers, so try to visit if you need to buy for someone special.

Cages By Design
Cages by Design create some of the most incredible bird and reptile enclosures I’ve ever seen. It’s my dream to one day be able to fill our bird room with these enclosures—I’d love them, and my parrots would love them too! For the month of October, CagesByDesign.com is offering a 40% discount on their products (cages, stands, and hoods) to all rescue and humane associations. This is truly an incredible opportunity, so if you qualify, I encourage you to take advantage of it. The coupon code you’ll need at checkout is EBVG-1006, and I’m sure you’ll have to provide some sort of documentation of your rescue activities.
