There’s a place in our com-munity where the hungry are fed, the homeless are sheltered, and the aban-

doned are given care. It’s the P.A.W.S. of Dearborn County Humane Cen-ter, which provides comfort and care for our community’s unwanted ani-mals.

People surrender or aban-don their pets for many dif-ferent reasons. Dogs and cats end up in shelters because of circumstances beyond their control. They’ve become vic-tims of a death, illness, divorce, or a move that didn’t include them.

They were displaced by a new baby, or their owners just didn’t learn how to train them. Recently, it’s been about money.

The situation with the economy has meant many pet owners can no longer afford the cost of food and care for their four-legged compan-ions.

You hear on the news about how the bad economy is affecting people, but you rarely hear reports of all of the other beings that are suffering. It’s a sad realization that our animals are paying the price. They are not disposable!

The P.A.W.S. Humane Center has dozens and dozens of loving pets just waiting to find a loving home for the

holidays. There are all shapes and sizes of

lovable mutts, purebreds, all-Amer-ican cats, shaggy dogs, puppies and kittens, teenagers and golden oldies. Your chances of finding a wonderful companion who matches your life-style, family, and home are excellent!

Shelter animals make great pets. A “secondhand” pet in no way

means second-rate. On the contrary, these pets

seem to sense what they were up against and become the most devoted and grateful companions.

Many have already lived with a human family and have the basic training, socialization, and coopera-tive skills they need to become part of your household.

If you have been planning on add-ing a new furry member to your fam-ily, and have given thought to the joys and responsibilities of that commit-ment – now is the time. Bring your family to the Humane Center and meet with our adoption counselors.

The staff and volunteers know the pets and will help you find a perfect match for your family.

If you are considering a friend for a current pet, bring them along with you for a “meet and greet” to see if they could become lifetime friends.

However, if you are looking for a cat or dog to surprise someone

else for the holidays, it’s probably best to think twice because, unlike that whiz-bang techno-toy you’ve got your eye on, you have more to think about than what to do when the warranty runs out.

Pets are not in-animate objects -- they are mem-bers of the family. It is essential that the new pet and potential owner form a strong re-lationship with each other from the start.

If you are thinking of a pet as a Christmas gift for someone else –

P.A.W.S. Humane Center offers gift certificates that may be purchased

and presented to your loved one.

That way, the new pet owner can take his or her time after the hol-idays to research breed, energy level and age to see what pet would best fit their life-style. Informative books to go along with the gift cer-tificate, as well as a “hope chest” of pet needs would round out the gift.

For many of us, the companionship of a pet is one of life’s great pleasures.

TRADE UP AND SAVE!

Many people harbor strong opin-ions with regard to which type of Christmas tree they want to purchase. Some cannot live without a natural, freshly-cut Christmas tree, while oth-ers prefer the convenience of artificial trees.

Those who insist on a natural tree might want to consider the following tips when buying what’s likely their biggest decorative item of the holiday season.

Ask when the tree was cut down. Precut trees may be cut down weeks before they’re sold. So if you’re buying a precut tree, chances are the tree was cut down much earlier than you think.

This doesn’t mean the tree won’t make it through the holiday season, but a tree that was cut several weeks ago should have some of its bottom trunk removed before it’s placed in the

stand. This will make it easier for the tree to consume water. This step likely isn’t necessary if the tree was cut down the same day you bring it home.

Have the tree shaken before taking it home. A tree should be shaken in a shaker before you put it in your car and bring it home. A shaker removes any debris or dead needles from the tree, which can save you the trouble of cleaning up all of those dead needles from your living room floor later on.

Have the tree wrapped before taking it home. A tree should also be wrapped in twine before taking it home.

The twine should be tight enough to keep the tree’s branches from blowing in the wind when you attach the tree to the top of your vehicle. If possible, keep the tree wrapped in twine as you place it in the stand. This makes the tree easier to control.

Real tree tips

Celebrants and shoppers annually spend billions of dollars during the holiday season. With so much money exchanging hands, it is imperative for shoppers and revelers to use caution to avoid incidents that can put a damper on such a festive time of year.

Though many people who look forward to the holiday season for all the right rea-sons, there are some who see this time of year as a prime opportunity to prey on the generosity or distraction Christmas brings.

Thieves know that the holidays can be hectic, and they use this to their advantage, knowing full well people tend to store high-priced items in their homes during this time of the year. Heeding certain safety tips dur-ing the holidays can help keep you and your loved ones safe.

Stagger shopping timesBeing a creature of habit may not be ad-

vantageous come the holidays. Oftentimes, potential burglars monitor neighborhoods to see when residents come and go. It can take mere minutes for a thief to get into a home and then abscond with valuables.

Creating a situation where there is always someone home or at least the appearance that someone is home might dissuade a

thief from targeting your home. When you venture out to shop, do so at different times so you’re not establishing a recognizable pattern that gives a thief a sense of security and a perfect window of time to break in.

Triple-check your homeSecurity experts warn that most bur-

glaries occur during daytime hours when homes are empty. The main point of entry is on the ground floor via a rear or a side door. Access through a garage door is another common way thieves gain access to a home.

Before leaving the house, make sure that all doors and windows are locked and that the garage door cannot be opened. Many times thieves are able to simply enter a home through an unlocked window. The key is to make it as difficult as possible for a burglar to get inside your home.

Running out of the home for parties, shopping and other social events could derail safety precautions. If need be, leave a checklist by the front door to remind you to safeguard the home before exiting.

Park in well-lit areasCars are prime targets for burglaries.

Yields: 5 dozen cookies1. Preheat oven to 350 F. In large bowl, with mixer on low speed, beat butter and sugar until blended. Increase speed to high; beat until light and creamy. On low speed, beat in egg and vanilla. Beat in flour, baking powder and salt until blended.2. Divide dough into 4 equal pieces; flatten each piece into a disk. Wrap each disk with plastic wrap and refrigerate 1 hour or until dough is firm enough to roll. (Or place dough in freezer 30 minutes.)3. On a lightly floured surface with a floured rolling pin, roll 1 piece of dough 1/8 inch thick. With floured 3-inch to 4-inch cookie cutters, cut dough into as many cookies as possible; wrap and refrigerate trimmings. Place cookies, 1 inch apart, on ungreased large cookie sheet.4. Bake cookies 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly browned. Transfer cookies to wire rack to cool. Repeat with remaining dough and trimmings.5. When cookies are cool, decorate with frosting if you like; use along with sugars and candies to decorate cookies. Set cookies aside to allow frosting to dry completely, about 1 hour. Store in tightly covered container (with waxed paper between layers if decorated) at room temperature up to 2 weeks, or in freezer up to 3 months.

■ 1 cup (2 sticks) butter (no sub-stitutions), softened

■ 1/2 cup sugar ■ 1 large egg ■ 1 tablespoon vanilla extract ■ 3 cups all-purpose flour

■ 1/2 teaspoon baking powder ■ 1/2 teaspoon salt ■ Frosting (optional) ■ Coarse sugar crystals, silver

dragees, holiday decors (optional decorations)

Sugar CookiesIt is companionship rather than ownership; for many of us would debate whether we own the pet, or whether the pet owns us.

Whatever the time of year, please make adoption your first option and give a deserving shel-ter animal a chance at a forever, loving home.

On behalf of the dogs and cats who cannot speak for themselves, we want to thank you for your love and support.

Many times shoppers visit the car frequently during shopping excursions and store gifts in the trunk, only to return for more shopping. Thieves recognize there may be a bounty of merchandise inside.

First and foremost, all items in the car should be stored out of sight to deter interest in your vehicle. Secondly, make sure that the car is locked and that the security system (if there is one) is engaged, as merchandise in a car is not often covered by standard auto insurance policies. In addition, park as close as you can to the store entrance or beneath a bright light. Poor visibility encourages thieves.

Watch your walletCash is a very attractive prospect for thieves

because it is largely untraceable and easily spent. While shoppers who want to curb high credit card bills might favor cash, it is impor-tant not to carry too much around. Spread out purchases over a few days so that you do not

have to carry large quantities of cash.When using an ATM at the mall or at the

bank, always be aware of your surroundings, including fellow customers. It may be worth paying multiple service fees to withdraw small amounts of cash rather than withdraw-ing a large amount of money that thieves can target.

Remove extraneous credit cards when shopping. Should your wallet be stolen or go missing, this will eliminate the number of accounts that thieves can use and also cuts down on the number of accounts that need to be closed out. You should never carry your social security card in your wallet because this increases your risk of being victimized by identity theft.

Request to sign for packagesMany shipping carriers have eliminated

the need for package recipients to sign for merchandise. Recipients can now choose to have boxes and bags left outside the front door. To decrease the risk of theft, always choose to sign for packages, regardless of how safe your neighborhood may be.

mas Carol at 11 a.m. Santa will visit at noon while harpist

Donna Jo Tucker performs, then Casey’s Outdoor Solutions will demonstrate wreath making.

One lucky person will win the wreath.

Choose the right location. When look-ing for the right place to set up your natural tree, it’s best to choose a spot that’s cool and free of drafts.

The tree should not be placed near heat sources, including appliances, fire-places or vents, because such heat sourc-es create a safety hazard and can make it difficult for the tree to retain moisture.

There should also be ample space be-tween the top of the tree and the ceiling.

Place some covering on the ground beneath the tree. Even a freshly cut natu-ral tree will shed needles over the course of the holiday season. Before placing the stand in the location you’ve chosen, put

some type of covering, such as a tree bag, beneath the stand so it’s easier to gather all those needles once the holiday season has ended.

Remember that natural trees are thirsty. Men and women who have never had a natural Christmas tree in the past might be surprised at just how thirsty natural trees get. The stand’s reservoir should have lots of water, which should never dip below the stump. If the water dips below the stump, you might be forced to cut a little more off the bot-tom of the trunk to ensure the tree will make it through the holiday season. That can be a hassle once the tree has been decorated, so be sure to check the water in the reservoir at least once per day to maintain adequate water levels.
