st pats-2 Happy St. Scrubbins Day! Today is the day we celebrate all things ginger and all things cat in my house.

He loves it. Really.

Every Sunday, I tell you about a failed writing project. Since we are entering March Madness, I will take a break from writing (and drinking like a an alcoholic leprechaun) to tell you how I’m supporting rescue animals in a fun way.

First off, get this. Freekibble.com is donating 100 Halo meals to shelter pets each time a NCAA team that has a dog or cat as a mascot that wins.
For every new “like” on their Facebook page, they’ll donate one meal to shelter pets.
For every new “like” on the Halo Pets’ Facebook page, they will donate one meal to shelter pets.

Freekibble.com is the web site started by 11-year-old girl, Mimi Ausland, 5 years ago.

Every day you can go to the site and answer a pet related trivia question. For every question answered (right or wrong) Freekibble.com donates 10 pieces of Halo Spot’s Stew kibble to shelter pets. They average 1.5 million meals a year.

So get off my website and get over to the facebook page and to the Halo Pets’ Facebook page. Then get back to your corned beef, cabbage and your green beer!
