Furry Friday is Feathery!


Okay, I know, it’s Thursday.  But I will be on vacation tomorrow through Monday, so I decided to post a day early.  It’s all about getting all of the animals at the Animal Rescue League of Iowa adopted after all.

Today, I decided to point to the fact that the ARL goes way beyond cats and dogs, they rescue all kinds of animals.  Including barnyard animals like horse, goats, and yes, chickens.  Or, in this case, a rooster!

Isn’t Rocky beautiful?  If I could have chickens, he would be a great start. 🙂 

From the ARL:

Rocky is available for adoption by appointment. If you are interested in meeting him or learning more about him, please contact Judy at jhand@arl-iowa.org or (515) 473-9112.

Please Adopt, Don’t Shop. -Kate
