Neuter Your Ex in New Jersey For Valentine’s Day

I know what you are thinking. Leave it to the creativity of the people of New Jersey to come up with such a clever idea.

We all knew someone over time who made us think, "This  guy is such a jerk, he shouldn't breed with anyone because he will only  bring more jerks in the world!"

Valentine's Day is that special day when love is in the air, and sometimes, ex-boyfriend problems.

So How Does it Work?

Well, this place called Homeward Bound Pet Adoption came up with a plan. A Plan that will help out all the ladies who had some not-so-great memories of their exes.

For just 50 bucks, they are offering a deal that would make you smile -- by neutering your ex...in a metaphorical sense.

Homeward Bound will take a stray cat, give it the name of your ex, and then perform a little operation that's all about preventing baby cats from happening – yes neuter a furry friend who will be given your ex's name.

You can help control the furry population and get a good chuckle from it. For just 50 bucks, you can name a feral cat after your ex, and then they will get the spa treatment, the snip-snip, the "neuter your ex" special!  It's the sweet revenge with a side of kitty karma.

The program is called "Neuter Your Ex for Valentine's Day." I think it's hilarious!

Guys- have a sense of humor here! It's about giving some women a chance to celebrate Valentine's Day! To celebrate in playful way that involves a little revenge and a furry friend.  This idea is the purr-fect blend of humor, healing, and helping out some stray cats.

For those in New Jersey who have an ex you want to "neuter" in a fun way, Homeward Bound Pet Adoption has got you covered.  I bet the cats will appreciate the laughs too!

If you have an ex who deserves a little symbolic snip-snip for a good cause, head over to Homeward Bound Pet Adoption Center's Facebook page. The cash goes straight into their trap-neuter-return program.

I don't have any pets right now, although I have had dogs, cats, ferrets, hamsters, fish, lizards, rabbits, guinea pigs, and more over the course of my life. I think dogs are my favorite, but I also love cats and am not interested in debating which is "better." I am, however, as everyone should be, an advocate for the proper and kind treatment of all animals.

Last week American Humane celebrated the oldest commemorative week in United States history. It was the 108th "Be Kind to Animals Week." Animal lovers of all ages get together on this day to help make the world a better place for animals.

American Humane CEO Robin Ganzert said, "The commemorative week provides people with the opportunity to contemplate the bigger picture of how their actions impact all the amazing creatures we share with our planet. And hopefully this week and every week we can celebrate kindness, compassion, and love for our animal friends." To help make a difference American Humane asks people to take a pledge to improve the lives of animals year-round.To take the pledge go to AmericanHuman.org/BeKind.

Coincidentally, there were a few heartwarming stories that we learned about during "Be Kind to Animals Week." Here are three that will make you smile.

United Press International reported a Charleston, South Carolina woman was reunited with her missing cat after 10 years. Animal Control Officers picked up Mr. Mojo and took him to the Charleston Animal Society where they scanned his microchip. They then called his owner, Erin, for a reunion. Mr. Mojo was found two miles from his home. Erin cried during the reunion. Mr. Mojo seemed happy but didn't cry.

A Raleigh, North Carolina mechanic rescued a six-week-old kitten from a car's engine. As reported by CBS17.com  Chris Hayes, whose elderly cat passed away a few months ago, said that he fell in love with the gray kitten so he adopted her and named her "Charcoal."

Chris' wife Stephanie said she "really wanted to find a gray kitten like the one she had as a girl.” While Chris was working to free the kitten, he said he kept thinking, “Wouldn’t it be cool if this is a gray kitten?”

Newsweek Magazine reported that a cat was recently mailed from China to Canada. Workers at a mail center in British Columbia found the cat. The British Columbia Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals says, "The officers noticed that the box was damaged and had a sizable hole in its side. When the CBSA officer looked into the box, the officer saw a pair of eyes staring back which blinked." The cat, which was named Precious by its rescuers, was taken to a veterinarian where she was treated and then placed in a foster home. Precious loves belly rubs and is going to be fine.
