There are times when I post reminders or requests for various animal-related charities because I know how generous people here are and that - some days - a little reminder to help those who cannot speak for themselves is well... that it's alright to do.
There is no reason to wait for a more "appropriate" day because
every day is appropriate to do something small for our heroes.
For anyone so inclined...
