*.:Cat or Dog massage therapy:. *

Hello, I know first hand that when your beloved pet starts to get old or has a surgery and can't walk well you feel like there is nothing you can do.
I give dog or cat massage therapy, I do it on my own older dog and she really does love it, she can run and play with her child and the rest of the family and I seems to help out her joints.

I only charge $10 per hour for a full body massage. I only ask that you come my house, After the massage the dog or cat will get a treat and small package for there time and heath.

For more info please E-mail or call me from 4Pm-7Pm

Hello,

Here is a little intro about me and my work.
My name is Mikaylah, I am 15 years young :) , I have worked with animals since I can remember. I have had pets all my life and seeing as my mum is a dog groomer and rescuer I have lads of experience. I know a lot about any kind of animal, I personally have may reptiles such as snakes and lizards, I have mice, rats, cats and dogs. I love kids and being an only child I don't mind working with them at all. I also have a ton of experience with children with needs, I have a family member with needs and so I know how t work an react with them. I worked at a horse back riding ranch where they had a camp that came once a week for riding and the children where kids wit needs. I as side walker as ell as a leader, I talked with e kids d helped them ride and he lots of fun.

I am looking for a job to help out make some money to put a little less strain on my grandparents seeing as I live with them. I would like a job wit animals or maybe kids, I can cook ad clean if that s needed or maybe a babysitting job. I can do anything I suppose and would love to work with something in my range of work.

Please contact me if you are in need of a worker.

My E-mail address will me listed on the side --> also my number

Looks like this 'rescue' is being run by a well-meaning young teenager. The spelling and grammar are atrocious, and it sounds like her setup is minimal; each animal has 'a cage or tank and may come with a water bottle/bowl' -- looks like she's taking in animals with whatever the owner gives her, and using what she's given (likely she doesn't have money to purchase something larger/better, hence soliciting donations).

I imagine she feels she's doing good work, saving the animals from euthanasia or use as reptile food, but it's the kind of thing that could very quickly turn into a 'hoarding' situation. Hopefully she won't take in too many animals and become overwhelmed.

I don't think she has an issue with animals being used for food...

I Breed Fancy mice as feeders for my snakes, But have to many for my self right now.
I'm offering a sweet deal here for PET mice as well as feeders.
I will have new pinkies in about 3 days, On request I will freeze some.
If your interested in some live mice as feeder
I will also have some on request.

Personal reward, gratification, etc
But not a nice or compassionate person.
Not someone who cares about animals.
Person has no problem feeding animals to reptiles. breeding animals for food, etc
This person is not rescuing animals!
 
This same Mikaylah person is now running a rattery under the name of Jazzed Up rattery. She has claimed she has been breeding for several years (7 or more) and has lied quite frequently about her name, age and intentions with the rats. She has even claimed she has gone to college and has kids of her own. I came acrossed her earlier this year and found many red flags on her website.
 
sadly people just have different ideas on the ethical treatment of animals- I think its often how one is raised . she seems well meaning . we had a pet sitter once- he was great - loved animals as well- but after sitting our rats he saw how great they were and started breeding them - again like here for pet or food- needless to say we stopped using him . its sad . for us that know how smart these animals are -
 
She has far too many animals. I understand breeders tend to have more rats but this collection isn't focused on one or two specific animals. The collection includes snakes (yes she does feed live), bearded dragons, other reptiles, guinea pigs, chinchillas, cats and dogs. She claims to do testing but when I asked for what I didn't really get an answer. She claims to import her lines from the states but again when I asked from who I didn't really get an answer.
