On December 15th, the Durham Humane Society in Oshawa, Ontario, burned down killing almost 80% of the animals. The cause? Mice chewing on electrical wires. Many of the workers there said it was like losing a pet of their own 200 times. I say I feel extremely happy for the animals who survived, but for the 80% who died, even though I didn't know them, I felt like I lost some of my dog's friends. The Durham Humane Society needs $250,000 to pay for the damages, so I have been collecting donations for them. If you would like to donate, and help, please go to http://www.humanedurham.com/donations.html. Thank you.

Personal Notes

A very tragic story. My heart goes out to all of the animals who died and all of the people who loved them and took care of them at the Durham Humane Society. I hope the facility can be rebuilt soon.
