The Clicking Paid Off

I am excited to announce that New Rattitude won the "daily click" contest for the state of Georgia which means $1,000 will heading our way to help out with the vetting expenses of rescued rat terriers! Thanks to all of you who took the time to vote for New Rattitude, even when theanimalrescuesite.com kept crashing. Each somewhat healthy dog (just needs shots, spay/neuter, microchip, and some TLC) costs NR about $50 beyond the $150 adoption fee that is paid when they go to their adoptive homes. So $1,000 can help a lot of dogs.

If you are wondering what to do with all that time on your hands now that voting isn't required, consider clicking on The Animal Rescue Site's "click for food" button each day. Advertisers on the site pay per click and all that money goes to pay for food for animal shelters in low-income areas. A click generates .6 bowls of food. You can even set it up so they will send you a daily reminder.

Thanks again, everyone. The fact that a brand-spanking new rescue group could win out over all the other groups and shelters based in Georgia is pretty amazing! That's teamwork for you.
