Watch for the test prep and tutoring gift certificate donation from Y3K Tutor In Your Home at the Companion Animal Protection Society (CAPS) MBTA Launch Party in Boston, MA. The money raised will go to promote their national ad campaign, Models Against Pet Shops and Puppy Mills. The ads are currently running on all of the MBTA commuter trains and at 20 Boston area train stations. This campaign educates consumers about the pet shop/puppy mill connection and encourages them to adopt, not shop.
CAPS is the only national nonprofit organization dedicated exclusively to protecting companion animals from cruelty in pet shops and puppy mills. They are working towards a world free from inhumane breeding and sales practices. CAPS can not do what they do without generous support so make sure you attend the MBTA Launch Party and bid generously on the Y3K Tutor In Your Home certificate.
New Hampshire Now A Dissection Alternative State
Last week the New Hampshire Board of Education approved a policy supporting the right of all K-12 students to choose alternatives to traditional animal dissection without being penalized. New Hampshire Board of Education determined that students deserve a right to a science education without compromising personal beliefs on hurting animals. They also decided that biology students learn as well or better with alternatives that do not involve once living animals.
The policy stresses that New Hampshire schools should make equal or better non-animal alternatives like computer simulations available to any student who does not want to dissect frogs, cats, or any other animal. New Hampshire’s Board of Education cannot mandate individual school policies by law, but can issue recommended sample policies like this for schools to adopt.
With New Hampshire creating this policy, there are now 17 states plus Washington, DC that protect a student’s right to choose a cruelty-free education.
The Purr-fect Cat Shelter Fur Bowl

Money raised will go to The Purr-fect Cat Shelter to provide care and shelter for cats in need. We hope the lucky winner of the Y3K Tutor In Your Home tutoring and test prep certificate enjoys our donated prize while helping the cats at the same time.
