Wishbones for Pets, which runs from October 12 through November 30, is a yearly program by which
professional pet sitters work with local businesses to collect pet supplies, food, and money to benefit
needy pets in their local communities. As pet sitters we care about our community, the pet sitting
industry and most importantly the animals. Working together, pet sitters and pet welfare groups can
make a difference for many pets in need.
Comfy Cozy Critters has chosen All Creatures Big And Small, Inc. as its animal charity again this year.
All Creatures Big and Small is a 501(C) 3 non-profit pet rescue co-founded in April 2003 by Beulah
Sherwood, a licensed veterinary technician, and Marjorie O'Grady, an experienced SPCA volunteer.
Although both women work full-time jobs and have families in their "normal" life, they have decided to
go that extra mile and help animals in need. Many of these animals come from various places
including dog control officers, dog pounds, other rescues and private owners, and priority is given to
pets in Oswego and Jefferson Counties. Many of these animals would have faced euthanasia without
their help! This organization may be small in size, but they have managed to place over 1000 pets
relying solely on adoption fees and donations of food, supplies and money from concerned friends
wanting to do their part to help. Animals are housed in their homes and the homes of a few diligent
friends trying to lend a hand. Their mission is to find permanent, loving homes for adoptable animals
in need. Not only does this organization provide help for animals in need, but they also take time to
educate the public about animal related issues. For more information about this animal organization
and too see a list of adoptable pets please visit their website.
We are proud to announce that in 2009 we collected $500.00 in
monetary donations! On behalf of the many animals for which we
strive to offer a better life, we want to thank you for your support
and contribution to All Creatures Big and Small, Inc. Your donation
aids us in helping homeless animals to find safety, security, and to
finally “belong”. We're hoping this year will be an even bigger
success, but we can't do it without you!!!!!!!
