-A Global Initiative For Animal Lovers-

 

 

“It doesn’t take years of training,

Or arms of steel, to rescue needy animals.

We all have an innate ability to stop cruelty and suffering.

And at the end of the day, that single act of compassion,

Makes you nothing less than a hero.”

 

Laura Simpson,

Founder of The Great Animal Rescue Chase

 

 

Many of us have been rescuing all sorts of animals

For many years now, but we truly need many more

This global initiative, for animal lovers everywhere

Urges everyone to help one, right outside your door

 

This worthy effort is open to every human being on Earth

Regardless of one’s age, or of any animal rescue expertise

Whether you are about to embark on your very first mission

Or your one hundredth - today, so many animals, are in need

 

The Great Animal Rescue Chase is also a truly marvelous opportunity

To teach your very own children, that animals should never be abused

That each and every animal on Earth, deserves compassion and respect

That saving the life of a neighbor is rewarding, and a marvelous thing to do

 

And animal rescue is not as time consuming, or as complicated, as so many believe

Simple, every day acts of human kindness, truly make a world of difference to them

From stopping your vehicle to assist a tiny turtle or a deer attempting to cross a road

To transporting a fishing-line ensnared bird to a vet, to bring their suffering to an end

 

A telephone call concerning a starving dog you’ve seen chained up in someone’s yard

A much needed meal for an abandoned cat you’ve seen wandering your neighborhood

There is no act of kindness too small, no animal rescuer too inexperienced, to help them

Please help us, to help Earth’s animals, one needy creature at a time, and do some good

 

For more information about The Great Animal Rescue Chase, please visit their website

Where you will find numerous animal rescue stories – and, you can submit your own, too

This global animal rescue mission is truly needed in these extremely cruel times we live in

Saving the life of any animal in need may just change your life, so please join us, very soon

 

I submitted one of my rescue stories ‘Trucker’s Tale’

Which can also be found in the A.D. Story Section.

 

(And I’d Love To Read Yours.)

Wonderful! And I've just "liked" Trucker's Tale on Facebook, from The Great Animal Rescue Chase page... so now Trucker is also on Facebook! :0) When will you join him - and us, all the other animal rescuers - there, dear friend? We need you there!
