Local cat gains notoriety for charitable work on behalf of fellow felines

Tiny (foreground) as compassionate conservative? Her brother (Baby, background) doesn't think so, but Kevin Loy of the much-referenced The Irish Trojan Blog has other ideas.  (Photo first published here.)

Tiny's famous!  Her charitable work has been cited by "the most frequently cited hurricane-related blog," The Irish Trojan Blog, "written remotely by Brendan Loy from South Bend, Indiana." Brendan's catblogging is exemplary:

You've heard of hurricane babies? Well, Matt Drachenberg's cat just had hurricane kittens!

(Much more importantly, Drachenberg has located his mother-in-law, safe and sound -- and snoring. YAY!!!!! And it was made possible by the blogosphere.)

But back to the cats. Tiny is raising money for hurricane relief. The Oubliette's cats weathered the storm, and were oh, so concerned about it. Lastly and importantly, here are some tips on cat evacuations, to keep in mind for future storms.

There's much more at Friday Ark.

Speaking of Arks, let's help Tiny keep her fellow Animal Americans afloat by supporting this blog's charity of choice, Animal Rescue League of Boston. As of 8:45 EDT this morning, "Blog for Relief Weekend" has raised  $574,630, and this blog has raised $610 from 11 contributors for the Animal Rescue League of Boston. If you haven't contributed yet, please consider adding your support to help the animals displaced by Hurricane Katrina, and don't forget to log your contribution at TTLB to make sure it gets included in the totals.

It's been almost a year after katrina, but still we need volunteers urgently to feed and water animals.
Residents and out-of-towners desperately needed. Warehouse animal care needed. Can you help us?
