'Tis the season to be shopping. Or at least thinking about shopping. Or at least thinking about thinking about shopping. Whenever it is that you do get around to purchasing gifts for loved ones near and far, big and small, furry and smooth, please consider visiting these animal-saving sites: The Animal Rescue Site (check out their "Fair Trade" section for some great non-animal-themed items, in case paw-print aprons aren't your thing), Humane Domain (the Humane Society of the United State's gift site), the ASPCA, and Defenders of Wildlife (for great wildlife adoption packages). You hear it again and again, but it's true: what could be a greater gift than a life saved? I'm not saying hold back on pure pleasure -- go ahead and buy him the combination breadmaker-and-power-saw and her the titanium snowshoes! I'm just saying throw a wolf and a polar bear in there, too.
