Facebook Friday, April 16, 2010

facebook-fridaysThis week we’ve been writing a lot about BlogPaws, the pet bloggers’ conference we attended last weekend in Columbus, Ohio. For this week’s Facebook Friday, we wanted to share the Facebook fan pages for the bloggers behind the Be the Change Day we told you about earlier today to raise money for the Columbus, Ohio-based Pets without Parents. These bloggers work year around the raise money for rescues–and spread a lot of furry fun as well!

Frugal Dougal and PawPawty

UK-based Frugal Dougal, the Twittering terrier, hosts monthly parties on Twitter for anipals to raise money for animal charities around the world. Look for the next PawParty on April 21, a special blogparty to benefit Pets Without Parents.
