About Me

Hi. I'm Donna. I've been sewing since about the age of 10. The idea for scrubs came from my neice being a nurse. I sewed her up a few scrub tops, and then I just kept sewing them. One thing I like to do is help needy, abused and homeless animals, and so I've decided to put my sewing talent to work for me and help supplement my caring of animals. Since I had been selling my nursing scrubs well on Ebay, I figured I could branch out and start my own online store.........And here I am.

Since this is my "About Me" page...............

Let me take a little bit of space to suggest 10 things we can all do to help animals.

Yes, animal activism can be for everyone. Here are 10 things you can do to incorporate animal rights into your everyday living:

Spay or neuter your companion animal, to prevent pet overpopulation. PLEASE.
Choose clothing that is not made from fur, leather, wool or silk.

Report animal cruelty. Stopping animal abuse takes reporting it to the proper authorities charged with investigating and prosecuting existing laws. Find out what agencies in your community handle animal enforcement, and keep contact numbers handy.
Get politically active. Educate yourself about which candidates are animal-friendly and which are not. Contact your elected officials about animal issues that are important to you, and always vote when election time rolls around.

Avoid entertainment that exploit animals, such as circuses with animal acts, rodeos, greyhound racing, and horse racing. Seek humane alternatives, such as non-animal circuses like Circus du Soleil.
Use humane and non-lethal pest control methods to control bugs and rodents. Shoot animals with digital cameras, not weapons.

Write letters to the editor.When you read about animal-related issues in the media, take a moment to write a letter to the editor. Whether the story was positive or negative for animals, letters to the editor are a great way to inform others about the animal rights perspective.
Volunteer some time. Many animal-related groups do not have the resources to hire paid staff, so volunteer labor is essential to their operations. Find an organization that you like and contribute time doing what you love - whether it’s cuddling cats, walking dogs, helping plan special events or leading guided nature walks so people can appreciate wildlife.
Donate to charitable organizations. Animal-related charities generally receive less financial support than health and human services organizations. Consider making a donation to your favorite animal related non-profit organization so it has the resources to implement programs that are important to you.
Educate others.
