One of my local animal shelters in desperate need of help

[friesianrider]

I know everyone's finances are pretty tight this time of year (and this year in particular it seems) but I just thought I'd put this out there if anyone has a few dollars they could spare to help a wonderful shelter that is in a near-crisis situation.

This is the no-kill shelter I volunteer my time with, and we are in the worst overcrowding situation I've ever seen them in. There have been so many animals coming in the doors, and the finances (and the shelter space) just aren't keeping up. This is a small, rural shelter, so they just don't have the resources to really advertise well to help with donations. There are only a handful of folks who really keep this place running, and with kitten season beginning in a few weeks (yes, already), it looks like things may be getting worse, not better. It has actually been suggested that we may have to start euthanizing if we don't get donations in to help until we can find these guys permanent homes. No one here wants to do that - the actual suggestion of it is too much for most of us.

If anyone can spare even a few dollars, *please* consider donating (you can do it online for free, it is through PayPal but you do not need a PayPal account to donate). Thanks for any help you could provide - this is a really wonderful shelter but they are in a very, very urgent time right now.
