Do you love animals? We do, won't you help us?

Hi to all the animal lovers - this request is pretty simple.  Please tell all of your family & friends ASAP!  The Animal Rescue Site (valid website) is having trouble getting enough people to click on it daily to meet their quota of getting free food donated every day to abused and neglected animals.  It takes less than a minute to go to their site and click on the purple box, "Fund Food for Animals" for free.  This doesn't cost you a thing and you don't have to sign up for anything.  The corporate sponsors/advertisers of this website use the number of daily visits to donate food to the animals in exchange for advertising.  Please pass this along to everyone you know.
