Vote for the Portsmouth Humane Society

The Portsmouth Humane Society is in the running for a $100,000 prize in the 2012 ASPCA Rachel Ray $100,000 Challenge. The Portsmouth shelter is one of only four in Virginia in the competition. 

"The 2012 ASPCA Rachael Ray $100K Challenge is a nationwide competition for animal shelters (and their communities) aimed at getting more animals adopted or returned to their owners than ever before," Executive Director Christie Chipps Peters said in a media release.   "This second phase is the Qualifying Heat where registered shelters compete to accumulate the most on-line votes from their supporters. The 50 shelters with the most votes become the official contestants for the 2012 ASPCA Rachael Ray $100K Challenge."

I could encourage you to vote for the Portsmouth Humane Society because Peters, who has been a guest on my talk show several times, is such a nice person, or I could mention the shelter's "cat colony" room, where visitors can sit in a room full of cats.  But I won't.  Because the best reason to vote for the Portsmouth Humane Society is this guy...
