It’s that time of year again! Time to stay awake with a team of other bloggers from around the country and blog for 24 hours all in the name of charity as part of Dr. V’s yearly blogathon on Pawcurious! This year, I am raising money for the North County SPCA in the Adirondack Mountains of New York.

Emma is one of the many dogs up for adoption at the North Country SPCA.

You might be familiar with the Adirondacks and upstate New York, because portions of the area were slammed by Hurricane Irene in August. And, earlier this year, the area where the no-kill shelter is located was also devastated by terrible floods.

These weather incidents didn’t exactly help an already weathered shelter. For example, the roof is leaking, the foundation has shifted, there is minimal insulation and the furnace is dying.

So, starting at 3 p.m. Eastern today, and continuing until 3 p.m. Sunday we will be posting a ton of fun stuff, including some awesome giveaways such as treats, books, swag, toys and a professional social media consulting session with me!

To make things easy, there will be a permanent link on the right side of our website, with information on donating via Paypal to the North County SPCA. We’ll also keep a list of the ongoing giveaways happening throughout the 24 hours over there, too.

Please remember that even a $5 donation can help this group continue doing the amazing work they are currently performing!

Hope you will stop back here later and follow our Blogathon adventure! You can also follow the hashtag, #blogpocalypse to see what we’re all doing. We are also going to be shooting short 15 second video on Tout, that we’ll use as part of giveaways and to interact with others. So, if you don’t have an account, sign up now! It’s so easy, and you can use your twitter account to sign in.
