Something that came up this weekend in a friend’s journal, poor guy is getting the brunt of it… is that people consider what Rescue does to be ‘ordinary every day rescue work’, something that’s just done daily, and deserves no recognition.

Something taken for granted because it’s made out to be ordinary.

So when groups such as ‘Rescue Ink’ pull ‘180 kittens’, oh my! That’s amazing! That’s awesome! Let’s give them major write ups!

So? That’s *ordinary, every day Rescue work*.


Yet, when Rescues go above and beyond their means to pull as many dogs as they did in the Palmdale fiasco, when Rescue goes above and beyond their means to help the Arkansas 8 from the puppy mill, when Rescue goes above and beyond to pull a Dam and her litter, resulting in one extraordinary little girl named Caena… no one outside of Rescue cares, because.. it’s ‘ordinary’.

Just because Rescues don’t look like big, bad tattoed bikers does not mean their work isn’t extraordinary. Does not mean what Rescues do doesn’t deserve a news article or a write up in People Magazine. Does not mean people need to simply dismiss it as every day.

What Rescues do as ‘ordinary, every day rescue work’, is *extraordinary* and the world needs to know it.
