Tainted milk hurting more than just humans

Story from national geographic.com
"Hangzhou, China, September 24, 2008-- A baby lion that was regularly fed the tainted milk at the center of China's most recent food scare is examined for kidney stones.

Melamine, a chemical used to make plastics and fertilizer, has been found in infant formula and other milk products from 22 Chinese dairy companies, the Associated Press reported Tuesday. The chemical masks protein deficiency in watered-down milk.

More than 54,000 infants have been sickened by the tainted milk, four died. "

Ahhh I have been missing writing entries. I am still without my laptop at home so I only have internet access at work in my breaks. Well a small update, it is now my birthday next Tuesday, finally 21. The big party is the following Saturday. Things are looking close to being ready, veryyyyyy excited.

Trying to be very animal proactive, I have been making monthly donations to RSPCA, Animals Australia and Pet Rescue. Also at work we had a cupcake day for the RSPCA which raised $1000. The cupcake day was done nation wide and australia raised $73,000 for the RSPCA!!!

Next project is to raise funds to protect our gorgeous Koalas who desperatly need our help.

Thoughts on my mind lately? Acutally doing something higher than veterinary nursing, studying Zoology. Of course this would be very straining on my small brain but it's something im giving some thought to...

More soon. Nostalgic Saturday will be back soon!!!

NO TREE. NO ME

My team coach at my work and myself are both very passionate about animals. He has been lucky enough to have some wonderful close encounters and experiences with animals. Together we have come up with the idea to have a fund raiser at work to raise funds for https://www.savethekoala.com/index.html

These gorrrrrgeous animals need our help. They are not only fighting there habitat being wiped out, they are fighting a DEADLY virus similar to aids, which is becoming so common in Koala's, babies are now being born with it. There are dedicated people trying to help these Koala's, but everyone can help.

Check out the website and you might be suprised how easy it is to help :)

Happy Birthday Jonah

Happy birthday to my darling boy! He turns one today, or 15 in human years. SCAREY! I have a teenage boy now. Well he is still a baby in my eyes. Its been roughly 10 months since Jonah has been in myself and Joseph's life and we love him to bits. I'm going to buy him some treats for his birthday, and I'm about to hurry home from work to give him lots of cuddles.

WEEKLY POST

As my laptop is still at my mum's and I am without the internet, I'm just doing weekly posts with my fave animal pics of the week until I'm back on my normal schedule.



London, England, August 28, 2008—Diana, a real donkey from the Island Farm Donkey Sanctuary, joins a pantomime donkey at a charity event staged to raise awareness about the plight of abused, neglected, and abandoned donkeys.

The event was hosted by Gift Republic, a specialty gift store, to encourage people to support sanctuaries through adopt-a-donkey programs. Diana, who was born at the sanctuary in 1997 to a rescued abandoned donkey, is one of the sanctuary's prized show donkeys.
