Brummet's Conscious Blog

Help us in this fantastic campaign to feed animals in shelters... This morning we received a very inspiring email from Michele Hollow, an online friend of ours and former guest on our radio show: "I am hosting my annual Comments for Pet Food drive. All you have to do is leave a comment here:   http://petnewsandviews.com/2012/11/your-comment-equals-50-bowls-of-pet-food / and your comment will feed 50 shelter cats and dogs. That's it. Nothing else."  How inspiring is that?  So of course I went over to the URL this morning and left a comment. Such a small thing, took only one minute, and I was able to help feed 50 meals to animals. Rediculously easy! - Be sure to scroll down the page when you get to that URL to find that comment form. Not having pets when in my childhood, I embraced having cats as companions (despite allergies) right up to just a few years ago when the older cats passed on. As a couple, Dave and I have had rescue and adopted (from shelters) animals...

-- Quote of the Day -- “… Our humane society is putting out information on getting homes for all the animals that people drop off or leave outside and don’t want to provide for anymore. …Rabbits that are kept indoors will live as long as 12 years, those that are outside would live only ½ that time. …The temperature outside may have an effect on how long they live. We have ours outside, in a 4-5 foot long cage, and the cage is inside of a penned in area where they can run around and get exercise. …They are born hairless and have teeth when they are born …and their eyes are closed, but they will wander around even with their eyes not open . ” ~ Patsy Henry Today's quote originates from a recent Conscious Discussions Talk Radio show, titled: For the Love Rabbits *Access the full interview via: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/consciousdiscussions/2011/12/13/for-the-love-of-rabbits Find Dave and Lillian Brummet, excerp...

-- Quote of the Day --  " Bitterness imprisons life; love releases it. Bitterness paralyzes life; love empowers it. Bitterness sours life; love sweetens it. Bitterness sickens life; love heals it. Bitterness blinds life; love anoints its eyes ."  ~ Harry Emerson Fosdick -- Conscious Discussions Talk Radio -- Patsy Henry has a passion for bunnies, not the stewing kind – but the ones we love to cuddle. She received her first furry friend one Easter as a gift from her husband, and since then their brood has grown. As she learned how to take care of the bunnies, Patsy took lots of photos and made notes about things that happened.   She found it such a joy to watch her pet rabbits run and play, and today she shares that joy with others through her children's books. Join us today to learn about ethical treatment of pets like these, interesting bunny habits and more. http://ww...
