Animal shelters were over burdened before the economic downturn and as the recession rages on many are being forced to forsake the family pet. In L.A. City & County, animal shelters have moved to the bottom of the priority list for already scarce funding. In honor of National Animal Shelter Appreciation week we discuss how to help pets survive the recession.

I loved this show. The animals and staff I've been involved with at Kitten Rescue and Casitas in Atwater have been wonderful. I have two cats I've taken home from there and they're fantastic. I think it's true that rescue animals do show gratitude.
Kitten Rescue is having a fund raiser called Furball at the Skirball on December 5 and it would be great if you could mention it sometime.
Love all your shows, Patt.
Cheers,
Dorothy Braudy
