GUANGZHOU, CHINA.....One-dog policy in Chines city forces tough decisions.....Can you imagine having to give up one of your pets that you have had for years.....tough decisions, are being made in this Chinese city because of a new law imposed on the people of of this city.....they must give up one or more of their pets....."It's a cruel regulation.....These dogs are like family.....beginning July 1st each household can raise only one dog.....

The regulations appears to be part of an effort to control stray dogs in Guangzhou, once known as Canton.....

They have the same problem as we do in this country.....they fail to spay/neuter their pets and sooner than you realize the animal population has grown to enormous numbers.....

Another thing we have in common with our across the sea pet lovers.....dog owners in the city aren't sure if the one-dog policy will be strictly enforced.....Just like in this country.....often authoritys announce a tough new law, lauch a crackdown, then ignore the measure.....

One of the major problems with their new law......what are they going to do with the over-abundance of dogs?.....do they have the facilitys to house this many animals?.....do they even have a spay/neuter program?.....

But.....there is always the fact that the Chinese people are masters at finding loopholes and other ways to skirt around laws.....

On this.....I wish them all the luck in the world....."HOMEWARD BOUND KITTENS" IS ON YOUR SIDE.....

How about a short peom.....?

A KITTEN

He's nothing much but fur

And two round eyes of blue

He has a giant purr

And a midget mew

He darts and pats the air

He tarts and cocks his ear

When there is nothing to hear

He runs around in rings

But why we cannot tell

With sideways leaps he springs

At invisible things

Then halfway through a leap

His startle eyeballs close

And he drops off to sleep

With one paw on his nose.....

Its summer time again and time to make nice shady places for our furry friends.....Be sure to keep lots of cool water and maybe some mist for them to cool off.....My outside cats enjoy the misters we installed in our covered patio....

We have expanded our income and gone into the candy machine business.  We have invested in five candy machines.....not the big vending machines, but the little 25 cent and 50 cent machines.....all proceeds go into a spay/neuter fund for the local neighborhood kittys.....We have named our new businees.....SAVE-A-KITTY KANDY KOMPANY.....

And it's getting hot in this office.....our air conditioner decided to take some time off.....

Ya' all have a great rest of the day.....and a better tomorrow.....ttfn.....Reid and Debbie
