Some common sense spam rules to go by:
-- NEVER click on ANY link in any spam
-- NEVER respond in any way to any spam.
-- If it seems to be your bank, ISP, a local store or whoever, NEVER click on any of the links in that e-mail.  Instead, use your own saved links to visit the site and check to see if the e-mail was real. Such organizations will NEVER ask you for any personal information in an e-mail.  It is easy to make a link look like it goes to your bank, wherever, but in reality it might go to a spammer or even a criminal’s web site.

Web Manager Ramblings:

If you are the kind who would enjoy spending some spare time with the animals at the shelter, there are opportunities at the St. Lawrence SPCA Shelter that might be just what you would like to do.  They could always use volunteers to walk the dogs, socialize the cats, and in general keep the animals’ attitudes gentle and adoptable. Animals need love and reassurance, just like we do only more-so sometimes, since there is no way to explain WHY they suddenly find themselves in the Shelter, or what happened that caused them to be there. Usually it’s not even their fault or anything they did; it was just circumstances. 

Sometimes they are there simply because they aren’t wanted anymore, or perhaps the family lost their home or moved because of a job, and can not have pets where they live now, so they end up at the Shelter.  One of our own dogs came from a home where his owner died, and 2 days later he was discovered there, still guarding the body, loyal as ever.  He was so affected by things they were afraid he would berserk in the Shelter, it bothered him so much to suddenly be  uprooted and moved there, pulled away from his owner’s dead body. He’s a bright, happy, loving and loyal pet to us now, and was brought to live with us almost the second we found out about his situation. An animal’s life can be hard, and seemingly very unfair. And sometimes, thanks to the Shelters and other places like it, they end up with happy stories to tell once the misery is over with.
