An animal-centered, very short and inexpensive new Amazon Mansion Wish List has just gone up, the residents need some help in purchasing cat and parakeet food, gravel paper and bird food. The list runs from $11 to $3.47 and there are only four items.

Summer the cat, who we helped to rescue, and the two parakeets (we bought a new cage) are so important to the residents, they talk to them, sit with them, sing to them, and in the case of Summer, they sleep with them.

They need a few modest supplies, and if you can help them. Because of your contributions to the Wish List, the number of Mansion outings has more than doubled. They can use their modest budget for trips outside. Thank you.

This time, I’ll hold back so others can buy some of the stuff. I might go for the $3.87 treats. Or maybe the Purina chow. If you need a phone for Amazon, the number is 518 213 5320. And thanks. List here.
