FUNDRAISERS:
We
will be participating in the St.
Stan's Spring Bazaar held on Saturday,
March 9 and the St.
Hyacinth's Spring Bazaar held on Saturday,
March 23. We are planning to have our spring
plant/rummage/and gift item sale again this year. More
information in the next issue. We sold many flag pins
since September 11. We have been making and selling the
flag pins for about 10 years, but since the tragedy of
9/11, we could hardly keep up. However, sales are slowing
down now - we continue to have flag pins at Bay Animal
Hospital and at Booth #236 at Bay City Antique Center,
along with other crafts. Sue Clements sold many at her
workplace in Midland and we received orders through the
mail. Many people all over the state of Michigan and people
across the United States now have our handmade flag pins
- North, South, East and West! We will have them (as always)
at our fundraisers in the future.
GENERAL
NEWS
For those of you who missed the information on the Website,
I am enclosing the information again. Website: Sherri
designed a Website page for KBAF. If you would like to
see our rescue letter, memorial section, rescue stories
and other animal information, go to:
www.dogsaver.org/kbaf/mission/mission.htm
If you would like a photo of a special pet

short story about your pet, and Sherri will put the picture

rescue story you would like placed in the Rescue Section,
please send picture and short story to our address.
SPAY DAY
-
The next Spay Day will be February
26, 2002. We will be participating again in this
national program, together with Bay Animal Hospital. For the
year 2001, we spayed and neutered 149 cats and dogs. Besides
the spaying and neutering, we also provided medical care such
as vaccinations, worming, testing, and other needs. We are
proud to have removed this number of animals from the breeding
cycle and thus reduce the suffering and killing of unwanted
animals - and are very grateful for your support.
HELP
NEEDED! - We are desperate! For several
years my husband, Bernie, made the home-made dog biscuits
for Katy Bishop's Animal Friends. Bernie made thousands
of dozens of dog biscuits and these were sold at all our
fundraisers, Bay Animal Hospital and The Thumb Print.
Much money was raised to help homeless animals. However,
due to a bad back and poor health (he will be having surgery
shortly), Bernie can no longer continue to do this volunteer
work. We need someone to make the dog biscuits. KBAF would
pay for the costs of the baking ingredients, provide the
dog bone-shaped cookie cutter and the plastic bags to
package them. I could continue to make the labels and
provide them to whoever makes the biscuits. If anyone
is interested in making the homemade dog biscuits, please
call me at 684-8333 and I can provide the recipe and other
information.
Thanks
to those of you who made donations in memory or honor of a
loved one or a pet and to those of you who donated just because
you wanted to help homeless animals and give them a second
chance at life. Our special thanks to those of you who made
extra-large Christmas donations. You made the Year 2002 look
a little brighter. Because of your
concern and support for helpless creatures in need, we can
continue to make the world a little brighter for homeless
animals.
Thank
you.
Trudy
Kane, Secretary for KBAF
