My Gotcha Day Commentathon!

Harrroooo gentle readers, RA here. Guess what??!! Today is my gotcha day! In commemoration, and taking cue from several great bloggers we are going to host a commentathon- for each comment received between now & the end of the month we will donate one dollar to Moonsong Malamute Rescue - an organization dear to me...

Six years ago fate brought #1 into the vet office with his kitty Azrael (RIP). I don't really know how I got there, and why #1 decided he needed to take on a filthy, skinny, matted & severely beat up huskerboo I shan't ever fully understand, but I thank the old father everyday...

No pictures from that time, but here is one from this morning's walkie-my favorite time of the day.



This evening we've got some special time at the park planned as well as a visit to the stuffy store. Thank you for spending a moment to celebrate this special day with us!

Peace to you & yours,

RAHUSKY

Hi Ra,

Following in Ali Zophia's paw-steps, even though I am a parrot, I love my Suka so I will help you give more money to the malamute organization. :->

We hope your evening of celebration was joyful and fun. The day you joined your forever family is a day worth marking down and making a HUGE deal about every year; think about where you--and I--would be without a Gotcha Day! I have walked in your pawprints. The Mighty Quinn.

The end of the month, right? Happy Gotcha Day, RaHusky! I am Puff the Magical and I am still a little timid especially about this blogging thing but I overcame my fear because I want to leave my good wishes and thanks.

White Dog Blog said...

I still have time to send Belated Happy Gotcha Day wishes...I hope? I waited for almost three years after the rescue saved me for a forever home...I thought I had found them twice and was returned before I found the White Dog Army. I KNOW how wonderful life can be when you discover you are FINALLY home and safe and loved! As I know you are. I am Nuka Angel Marie.

A big Happy Gotcha Day!! You are one handsome guy :)
