Adopt an animal schemes are very common and a good way to support a cause
without spending too much money. Adopt an animal schemes make good
presents. Several people adopt the same animal, usually. Animal
sanctuaries are expensive to run and depend entirely on donations. As a
previous poster said, most of these animals have been rescued. In the UK, I
support Hillside Animal Sanctuary, in Norfolk. We visited last summer - it
is run by a vegan - Wendy Valentine - who had made it her life's work. They
also have self catering accommodation if anyone wants to stay in the area
and support a good cause at the same time. www.hillside.org.uk
