Doris Day to the Rescue
Thank heaven for aging actresses! Days ago we told you how Tippi Hedren was helping to educate kids about her animal sanctuary, and today comes a story of how Doris Day helped save the lives of 100 adoptable animals in Louisiana that were scheduled for euthanasia following Hurricane Katrina.
The transport project began when Santa Cruz SPCA Director Lisa Carter came across an online plea from shelter workers in New Iberia, La. Carter contacted an animal organization founded by 81-year-old actress-singer Doris Day. More than $20,000 later, an old cargo plane had been stenciled with both Santa Cruz SPCA and "Doris Day Animal Foundation" logos and was ready to go.
Don't you have Doris Day's number in your PDA contact list? Why not?
