wolfgirlhere@yahoo.com says omg I need this. I am an animal rescue and I make cards sets etc to sell to help fund the sprays of the animals I trap. I trap strays and they go off to another group who puts them up for adoption. I socialize feral kittens and they go to Pet Smart.
The feral cats I bring back to my property after vetting of course and they go in an acclimation kennel for 30 days outside so they want run off when let out. The feral so live out there life in backyard and woods behind house. I provide insulated houses and food continued vet car for rest of their life. Feral cats that are true wild feral so can’t be adopted.
I need this machine to make adoption event banners and mass product craft and home decor items to sell.
Thank you so much for the inspiration of ideas and chance to win. This would be A Life Saver To Animals and Me Too!
