Puddles Weblog edited by Thomas Hollyday

Our Mission: As world water resources decline and habitat is destroyed plans are being made by governments to save enough drinking water for humans. What about animals and wildlife?

In 1985 our editor Thomas Hollyday created Puddles to comment on our culture, our literature and our organizations and make sure animals and wildlife are remembered in this coming water crisis. Join him and others on the Puddles weblog with your comments and questions to make sure animals and wildlife are always protected with an adequate supply of clean drinking water.

Puddles weblog is named for Puddleby-on-the-Marsh, the home of the greatest animal champion in literature, Doctor John Dolittle, MD. Join us now!

Solar sipper Sense December 2010


December 2010

DO THEY KNOW SOMETHING: From Pet Product News, Mayabb of Royal Canine reports that we’re beginning to look harder at animal nutrition. Various breed illness issues can possibly be addressed from pet childhood by the types of food given to them.

SOLAR SIPPER NEWS: When you grow up in farm country like we did with your family in tobacco, wheat and dairy for decades, farming is in your blood. That’s why such a pleasure to have our little company provide the Model 10011 Commercial Solar Sipper all season water station. This American made drinker is ideal for farming free range poultry and fowl. We’ve found the product is also great for our work in wildlife rehabilitation allowing fresh drinking water safely solar heated to keep down ice where there’s no electricity or in wilderness areas where electric wires can be chewed. Government and non profit wildlie programs can also write for our special discounts. Our Vietnam veteran owned company is listed with GSA and takes Government credit cards.

APPLAUSE PLEASE: AWI has asked that the USDA make slaughterhouse enforcement records available to the public via posting on the agency’s website. Posting information regarding slaughter house compliance with humane laws would assist the public in deciding about the foods they purchase and would make plants abide by the law. Along this line, check out the ratings of the Global Animal Partnership at your grocery.

PUBLISHING NEWS: Solar Sipper Publishing, division of Happy bird Corporation is pleased to announce the publication of Gold, the fourth novel in the River Sunday Romance series.

A well loved priest dies suddenly at his altar, leaving behind a missing fortune in thousands of twenty dollar bills. Native American old burial mounds combine with excited mobs of treasure seekers, legends of space visitors, a stalking killer who burns victims to death. and a coin from an ancient mogul and give the reader a fast paced story right up to the terrifying end.
