Well I'm sure they don't have Coggins but I doubt that the government will ship them for that or any other reason - the public outrage if they did so would be phenomenal.

You are right on that!! Although this is a tragidy, I think that it will open the non-horsey publics eye to what horse slaughter is. Almost every article I have read on this has mentioned the plight of horses being slaughtered and the legislations to stop it. At least some good will come out of this.................

Me too - a pittance, but hopefully lots of people will send in pittances... Those poor horses. They've been through so much.

Maybe we could send in all of our money together in the name of SAFE?

I think that we could still label each of our donations for the horses or mule ( ;D) of our choice but we could send it all in together.

I just read through the site - I couldn't pick one over another to sponsor, they all are so deserving.

Count me in (but it IS a pittance )...I can't pick one either, although Buckwheat really tugs at me. How shall we do this?

Maybe we can create a seperate thread to list individual donations and have everyone send the money into SAFE and then have Bonnie send a check with the names of the individual donors and which horses or mule ( ;D) , if any that they would like to sponsor.

Hmm DDK - are you planning on sponsoring the hinny? Sure is a cutie! Someday I want one of my own. I like the idea of sending the donations in and having one from SAFE sent with the combined donations. We could send a nice card that also includes information about SAFE and our mission.
