| I'm so proud and humbled by your decision to start a rescue. I know it will take a lot of time, dedication and love. You and your husband will have a lot to learn and you will make mistakes as you move forward but I also know you will both learn from these mistakes and place each rescue in a loving and caring home. Take it slow and limit the number of animals you take in. If you have any doubts about taking the leap, you may want to consider volunteering for a local rescue first and learn from them. Your selflessness and love for Gods creatures is very commendable! I believe some comments were taken out of context. Everyone on YT cares, and I'm sure the comments were intended to protect you and not meant as a jab at you or your efforts. Good Luck and Thank you for taking this HUGE step!

| Ytsirk - I really went out of my way to give you a lot of credit and respect for what you want to do. And - just so you know - I think that probably people who can take an animal or two into their home and care for it can probably do a better job than the Human Society can do. And, for sure, donations" are a large part of anyone's ability to care for a lot of animals. If you an get a government grant (????) that would be wonderful. I mentioned several ways that you can work with neglected, homeless animals. There is always room for more help - and you have the heart and desire, and I'm sure you can do a lot. Please reread my post. I was only trying to give you a few things to consider - but in no way was I trying to discourage you from the work you want to do. If I were younger, I would love to take care of a lot of animals too, but I know for sure I couldn't afford it (equipment, cages, dog runs, food, vet care, etc. etc.) and I definitely don't have the right facility. But, if you can get all this together, then I admire anything and everything you can do. *** I will admit that if I saw you getting all this together - and it appeared to be a viable setup with an appropriate facility and the proper credentials - I would donate money to your efforts. I'm behind you 100% --- and admire your efforts - no need to be offended by anything I have said. I hope that you can do all the things you want to do. Carol jEAN |

In the post you are upset about, I only see care and concern for you since starting a rescue is new to you. It was simply an advise for you to take it slow and grow the rescue as you learn and to seek advise from people with experiance. I'm sure you are very passionate about this and read the post as a criticizim instead of advise. I hope when you go back and reread the post you will see it the way it was intended to be read.

| Ytsirk - Thanks for your response. I am relieved to know that with a little more consideration that realize that I didn't mean to critize you at all. Again - I have nothing but respect for your dream. And - if you do start with only a few animals - I'm sure you will enjoy the success and sense of achievement that you are looking for. Good luck!
