The New Year brings changes to Critter Corner, but animal needs remain the same.
Critter Corner and its readers have made a difference in the last two years. We’ve laughed at silly photos, taken action to adopt, rescue and raise money for abandoned animals and learned how to help wild animals in our back yard. Although this is the last Critter Corner column there are still animals, both locally and globally, who need your attention. Keep up to date by checking these sites for tips, activities and animal issues . Local sites National Sites I will still be covering larger events and urgent animal issues through a blog on Patch. Stay in touch by checking Patch or e-mailing me directly at katherinekpatch@aol.com Thanks for all your feedback and a pawsitive-can-do-attitude. Happy New Year to all two and four legged critters!

Local rescue groups and Pat O'Brien team up to find happy endings.
The showroom floor at Pat O'Brien Chevrolet was full of holiday cheer as Marilyn's Voice, PAWS and NE Ohio Greyhound Rescue were joined by WELW, Santa and his merry elf. Their goal was to get animals rescued from puppy mills, hoarders, kill shelters and abusive situations into happy forever homes. It seems lots of holiday wishes will be coming true. Photos list MV for Marilyn's Voice or PAWS. For adoption information about animals currently in foster homes contact: There is nowhere like a real home for the holidays.

PAWS supporters lent their singing talents to raise funds in suicide karaoke contest.
The Mad Hatter and a Litter of Puppies were the leaders of the pack at Saturday’s suicide karaoke contest held downtown at Goodfellers. Amy Beichler, Executive Director of PAWS dressed as the Mad Hatter, kept spirits up as rumors of “Franken-storm,” the uninvited guest, were a topic of discussion. Executive Director of Geauga Humane Society Hope Bruenstein's costume spoke volumes- “Don’t Litter!” Fox8 News meteorologist Angelica Campos was also in attendance. People may have wanted to ask her about the upcoming weather, but her favorite topic was “Charlie, is the most beautiful puppy in the world- I adopted through PAWS”. Singing despite the rain, everyone had a great time raising money for needy animals. Stop in at PetSmart in Golden Gate…
