It's Thankful Thursday buddies, and we have so much to be thankful for!
A couple of weeks ago, Hurricane Sandy stopped by to visit the Northeast.
Well, we hope we never see the likes of her again! What heartache and misery she left us! Thankfully we just lost some fencing and were without power for 9 days, but we made the most of it.
Some people lost everything! Their homes were destroyed, lives were lost. Our hearts and pawprayers are with them.

Thankfully, times are changing and many of the shelters welcomed pets too, but there were many left behind. We are so thankful for the rescuers that are continuing to work to put families and their pets back together. This reminds mom that we need to be prepared, just in case we need to head to shelter too!
Thanks fur stopping by buddies, stay safe!
Glad you all made it through Sandy okay! Our thoughts are with those still struggling.

Oh, I'm so very happy that you guys are okay. That Sandy sure was a biotch! I hope that people can get all the help they needed very, very soon. I know there are alot of people still hurting, and we can never forget that a disaster like this takes ALONG time to recover from. Long after it is out of the news. My paws are crossed for everyone and every furkid there.

@PepiSmartDog: Oh Prudence I'm so glad you are alright! Didn't know you were in the area that was hit. Natural disasters are always so tragic and I often think it's sometimes luck when you come out unscathed when others lose everything. Please know my thoughts are with you and your family. ((((HUGS)))) XXXX
