That's fantastic Lucy!!! Thank you so much for your support! It is soooo appreciated!!!!!!
Thanks Linda... hopefully I'll sell lots of tickets. This year I have to sell double as I dropped the price to $5.00 instead of $10.00 because of the economy... but hopefully it will be just as successful as last year.

Ok guys, we have yet another PPS fundraiser. I bought around 100 keychain/bottle openers and had them custom made with the Peanut logo on the front and the website on the back. I am donating them to the shelter and will send them down to Andy. They will benefit our favorite shelter animals!!!

Maureen has graciously agreed to mule some down. I Pm'd Andy and a good price for them would be $5.00. But hey peeps, they are for a good cause!!!!! (oh, and hint, hint, they are a perfect match for the PPS Koozie too!)

And once again...I am very happy for my little sponsor girl, Bambi. I wish her a lifetime of love!

Help support the Peanut Pet Shelter, Playa Del Carmen, Mexico




We are holding a fundraiser to help raise funds for Peanut Pet Shelter’s Cat Haven/Clinic. This growing shelter is run by Andy and Jen, a couple from Britain who started this shelter out of their home around 2 years ago. They have been taking in abandoned dogs and cats that they find on the streets. Most of the animals have been beaten, hit by cars or tortured. They nurse them back to health, get them all their shots, spay/neuter them and then try to relocate them to good homes. They are currently at 70+ dogs/puppies and cats/kittens. They were lucky enough to get a piece of vacant land to build their Cat Haven/Clinic, but they will need to build the clinic themselves and are asking for help. The clinic will be used by the volunteer vets to spay/neuter the animals in the shelter and those owned by the people in the community that cannot afford to pay to have their pets spayed or neutered. We will be raffling off the Lia Sophia Necklace and Earrings set pictured below (retail value $108.00). Tickets will be $5.00 each. Please make checks payable to Lucelena Escarpita. For more information, you can contact Lucy Escarpita at (310) 560-4750 or you can visit the pet shelter website at Peanutpetshelter.org.


If any of you are interested in buying tickets, you are more than welcome!
WOW!!!!! The set is soooo pretty!!! All these fund raisers are AWESOME!!!!!
