An Invite To You from Niagara Action for Animals, a region-wide group of volunteers advocating for the welfare of animals
(A Brief Foreword from NAL publisher Doug Draper – I will start by declaring a bias here. I spent time during my childhood with some wonderful dogs. But many, many years ago, a great cat walked into my life and ever since then, I have been a card-carrying cat lover.

So when the volunteers at NAFA sent me a gallery of pictures of some of the kittens and cats up for adoption at a Welland Pet Valu store this coming Saturday, the first thought that crossed my mind was that if I had enough room and time for them, I’d take them all home. But I’m not so sure Dexter and Dylan – the two cats who already front and centre in our home – would care to share their favourite snoozin places with other felines.
So if you have the heart and place for the kind of friend who will always play it straight and never let you don’t, with plenty of purrs thrown in, this coming Saturday, December 5th and Sunday, December 5th, between the hours each day of 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. you may that friend at the Pet Valu store on Fitch Street in the Niagara city of Welland, Ontario.

Niagara At Large 
Ahhhh. That melts my heart, especially after the Belgian people’s response to the troubles last week, wherein they published only cat pictures on Social Media. Long time, small-time supporter of Niagara Action for Animals, here. They have a calendar for sale for 2016 which I have just ordered.
Our two aged kitties died this summer within a month of each other, and after over 40 years of cat care-giving, we have given away all the cat accoutrements to the local Animal Assisance Society. Too old, us’n, to replace those old kitties. But thumbs up to all who do adopt a companion this weekend.
Thanks for this Doug. A sweetness we all need in our lives in these troubled times.
