Three Ruidoso-area men have been charged by NPvada officials in connection with the use of allegedly stolen slot machine tokens from Casino Apache.

Criminal complaints issued by prosecutors in Las Vegas accuse Brian Thrres, 33, of Mescalero, Wesley G. Guill, 22, of Ruidoso, and Michael Scott Spurlock, 23, of Ruidoso, of multiple counts ofburglary, possession of cheating devices, unlawful use of gaming devices and conspiracy to cheat at gambling.

11Jrres and Cuill wen· originally arrested by Las Vegas authorities in March after Casino Apache tokens hPgan .showing up at at !Past six Las Vegas casinos.

Tokens no longer were used All thrPe men had worked at the Mescalero casino,

-according to earlier infonnation in the investigation. 'I1w lokens, which were no longer used in Casino ApachP rnachirws, disappeared from a storage area of tllP casino in ,January.

After their March arrest in Las Vegas, Thrres and Guill had bePn rPIPased from the Clark County Deten­tion Cf'nter aH..(•r posting $20,000 bonds.

Charges against Spurlock were later filed after casino survPIIlarlC'P cameras indicated he was involved in tlw sanw activity, Keith Copher, chief of enforcement f(Jr the Nevada Gaming Control Board, said Thesday.

Compromise keeps, changes road name "1\.vo of them, Thrres and Guill, were detained at

the tinw," Copher said of the March discovery of Casi­no Apache tokens at Las Vegas casinos. "Spurlock ba­:-;ically did tht> same thing, using coins counterfeit t0 NPvada. But hf' wa~n't in custody at the time.~

Copher said an ongoing investigation lead to the charges against Spurlock. BY l.>JANNI: S I ALLIN<;~

BALLOTS: Election results impounded in Lincoln County, across state t lllllliHit'd Ji·om page lA

vott•s . A spokesman for the office

smd vut.l:•i-i under state law will not bt> canvassed until Nov. 28. On<'<' they become official, a eandidatP hus six days to call f()\· a t'N'ount or lodge other Jlf"OtPsts.

t :harles Rennick, head of t lw county Democrat Party, smd }w's outraged by the ac-tion. ~

"I think voters have cause­to hP vPry concerned that a t·amlidHtC" or a party without <my allPgation of iiTegularity ean sPi~Pd ballots and take IIH·m out of the control of the

('Oltnty. "I don't think this is about

Rita Neumann. I think this is about George Bush and the stnte RPpublican Party."

At the time the court order was issued, Bush led in the state by four votes. By late Thesday, GorE;" was ahead again and the state seemed to be in his pocket.

Rf'nnick pointed out that Neumann lost by about the same margin as two of the other candidates in races for tlw appPals court.

"The court order from .Judge Counts says nothing about a potential recount," RPnnick said. "In Lincoln

County, there has been no alle­gation of irregularity in the vote, the counting or the can­vassing and no request for a re­count."

The county clerk wasn't no­tified about the court order until the state police were on the way; he said. He was never officially notified, Rennick said.

"They took the ballots under armed guard out of Lin­coln County," he said. "'Now no one in the county has access. I just think the Republican Party and Bush campaign is subverting the democratic process. I think the Republican Party owes an explanation to Lincoln County and the baJlots

should be immediately re­turned."

He noted that absentee and early votes acconnted for more than 45 percent of the total turnout for the general election.

Doris Nelms. head of the county Republican Party. said she was infonned about a pos­sible seizure of ballots.

"I feel the Lincoln County balloting and voting procedure is done with accuracy and we have a great county clerk who doesn't allow discrepancies, .. Nelms said. "I don't know the full ~tory behind the impound­ment, but think it must has something to do with the close­ness of the Gore/Bush race."

Beauvais supported their concern, saying much of his business is tied to suing on be­half of employees who feel wrongfully treated by public or private employers.

He warned that policies are drafted to protect the em­ployer, not the employee.

"By including the term 'at will,' it's a disclaimer, no mat­ter what else is stated about using progressive discipline," he said ... It's one way to save money."

"Government is in place to offer service, not to make a profit," he said. "IfCSI is mak­ing a profit, it's not, right."

Foran recalled that 3 112 years ago, commissioners turned over m.anagement of the old jail to CSI shortly after two jailer were arrested for so­liciting sex from inmates.

Since then, the company upgraded the operation, im­plemented policies, improved cleanliness, met the stan­dards of the state fire mar­shal, reduced the number of inmates who w:ere placed in other jails because of space constraints and participated in the recommendation with Stewart that an annex be built to handle nonviolent and more trustworthy in­mates.

Meetings to stay in Carrizozo Realtors group had asked county commission to meet in Ruidoso BY DIANNE STALLINGS RUIDOSO NEWS STAFF WRITER

A reqilest by Ruidooo Real­tors for at least half of the Lin­coln County Commission meet­ings to be conducted in the vil­lage was rejected in line with a position taken last year.

Although commissioners Friday said they would continue to consider scheduling Some special meetings in Ruidoso, they voted 4-1 to keep all the regular monthly meetings in the county seat of Carrizozo.

The vote occurred before Harvey Foster, president of the Multiple Listing Se:rv:ice and an age.nt with Centwy 21, was allowed to present arguments for a change.

'There appeared to be no interest whatsoever to have any meetings in Ruidoso" with the exception of Conunissioner Leo Martinez, who represen~ half of the village, said Joan Zagone, executive director of the Rui- · doso Valley Chamber of Com­merce. Commissioner L. Ray Nunley is elected from the other half of the village.

"It's not going to happen tinder this present commission,," she said Thesday.

'We've done that in the past - set specific dates and had quo­tas (on the number of meetings) and the participation didn't seem significant," Commission Chairman Rex Wilson said at the Friday meeting. "It's more efficient to have meetings here where the records are."

Efficiency also is why regu­lar meetings are during the day time, he said.

"We're not tryiri.g to shut out participation," Wilson said .. "But day time is business hours and the staff functions better."

Foster said Tuesday he was disappointed that commission­ers don't seem to realize that .

the community is not just CB.ITi­zozo and the surrounding 10 miles.

"The county is one large community and the commission dealS with issues that affect all of us and we as the population center are the bulk," he said~ ''If everything happens Over there, people don"t get to lmow about it. · '"We will oontinue tQ pursue

thiS until we get the seivice we deserVe."

"People will show up once they know the meetings are . there routinely and that you are sharing part of your environment."

Harvey Foster,· Multiple listing Service presidcm

On Friday, Foster told cbm­mi~ionet~s that as people become use to- regular meetihgs in Ruidoso, attendance -would irD.prove and n-oted th8.t he had­n't se¢Q. any records pulled dur-· ing the seven-hour meeting that. day. .

''People will show up once they know the meetings are there' routinely a:nd that you are shBring part of- your environ­ment," Foster said.

Wilson said Foster's · points were gaud, but no motion ·was offered.

Martinez warned that the county would·be better served if commis:sioners "let steam off the tempest," by setting some meetings in Ruidoso and by pro­viding more services in the area fur filing .legal documents and other actions that now require a 76 mile roun!i trip to Canizozo.

''This is like ·a teapot and people are i"eally uPset~ If you dori't ,give them a Piece of the' pie, what does it ~.to ~te the county seat ~mewhere else?''

N\lllle;y cOrrected him, not­ing that County seats were required to be Situated a.t a rail­road· heed and tha~'s why Carri-zozo was chosen. . ·

. Martinez resporided that times liave changed. The rail­road Once was the major _means of transportation. That· no longer is the case and· old state statute,e, ·can·. be changed, he said. ·

"My point is We have to l'8p­resent the_~ 8J;1<I if the,Y want meetings m RuidOso, lets do jt "and !<eel> the pres"''"' off," be said. "Let's provide ~ce at the substation. I dort~ see (why there is) resistance to it."'

But Ct~,pitan- reSident Duane Williruns~ Oscuro reSi­dent Jerry ·Carroll and·· "'bny Seno from Ruidoso sided with the rest of the cOnunission, say­ing regular· meetings should remain in CB.ITizozo.

Noting .that he~ attended nearly every commission ·meet-. ing for the past :five years, Si:mo said, "There~ no excuse that anyone crui come up with for them I;Lot to be h~re; 'if they sin­cerely are interested, in· their government.'" _-· ·.-

OUR OPINION

Call it the 85% non-solution

Television's tallting heads tell us (or did as of Tues­day), that 85 percent of the nation is intently f01--used .on the hattie for the White House taking place in the never-never land of Florida. · .

That's more than the Clinton-Lewinsky scandal, more _than Watergate. More, even, than the O: J. Siinpson trial (but pray God the ouj;Cpme .doesn't take tluit lortg). Yes,_ we must consider the source - the television industry's own polls, self-serving, telling them to . keep on pushing the hype, keep on stirring the pot, keep on quoting every play­er and would-be player from George w. and Al down to the hallot counters in Palm Beach County. . ·

A powerful argument can ·be made that if we didn't have television pundits, we wouldn't have an electorS:! vote crisis. An equally powerful argument can be made thet the camera's eye ls all~Seeing; that without television the party potentates would make their deals in the dark, and the ignorant - read that as uninformed - voter would never know the difference.

But we can't _turn back the clock or turn ·off technology.. So, whatever happens in the courtrooms and ·backrooms of Florida, a conclusion will be reachedc ·The odds are that. whatever the outcome, half the people (or half of 85 per­cent of us) will believe forever that the election was stolen.

Hail to the Tigers Lincoln County's fall sport ·season has come to a halt.

No more football, no more soccel\ no more crosswcountry running, no more volleyball. Every .. team. played_lo.w;d, played well. The ups and downs of the season wiH<be argued and remembered.

Workforce development. funding In place here

1b the editor: This is in response to your

front-page article of the Nov. 1, 2000, edition concerning the Workforce Development funding.

I want to make clear to the Lincoln County Commis-· sian and the Eastern Area business people that federal

and state workforce funding totaling $300 million statewide is available· and is being used in NeW Mexico.

ResPonsibilities of work force development· boards in each area- are to coordinate and improve the ·errectivE!ness of that funding a~ross the var­ious programs. A SQJ.aller amount of rnortey - $6.7 mil-· lion - is under. the direct con-

-trol of the area -board for sPe­CifiC· on-th.e-job and other employer training. Further-

. more, this is a congressionally .apProved program that is sla~ ed for at least four years of operation and w-e fully expect to have this funding for .the remainder of the legislatively approved cycle.

As the GoVernor's state · workforce repreSentative and

as a busineSs owner in the. E'astern Workforce Area,· I. fully believe that involve­ment in this process ·by local busines$es is.essential for its­succeSs and that their involvement will Prove bene­fiCial for our economic devel-opment. .

EDUCATION BRIEFS ==-'-----·-·-----·----'--State's 'high imptoving' school list revised-

The New Mexico State Department of Education released a recomffiended revis~d Hating of 101 "high improving~ public schools for consideration by the State Board of Education at its Nov. 29 regular meeting in Santa Fe. Once approved, the schools, recognized for show­ing the most improvement in test ,....score:s frOm · 1998~99 to 1999-2000, will be awal-ded with $1.843 million in state incentive_ funding.' The recom~ mended revised listing 1of "high improving"- schools_:: is available on the SDE's_ Web site, located ·at www.sde.state.nm.us on the ,"home page under ''NeW Thi.!' Month." · ·

"Fol16wing a thorough­review, we· determined that the data used to prepar:e the original listing or. 'high improving' schools had been

_J miscalcuhitted,, said State Super~ntendent of Public Instruction Michael · J. Davis. "Whil'e our ·new calculations have resulted in a recommend­ed revised ~istin8- of 'high improving' schools, we know that those schools originally designated are striving dili­gentJy, every day, to improve outcomes for children. We cele-· brate their successes and apol­ogize- for this error~ under­standing how difficult this announcement is for their communities ...

'The SDE had. designated 94 schools as .. high improving" on Oct. 6, representing 10 per­cent of the state's public school

_·Quintana said.

NMSU to offer free classes. about diabetes

New Mexico State Univer­sity's' Cooperative Extension service will te~ch tree, four­.week classes to help NeW- Mex:­icaqs wi~ diabetes .learn healthier wayS of .preparing tr~Mlitional dishes. :

"Kitchen Creations: A Cooking School for People with Diabetes and The-ir Families" will be launChed in NOvember in ·Sandoval and Los Alamos­countieS, the pilot .test sii:Bs fur the progr~. BY mid:2000, the ~lasees will.spread to 10 more· counties, including C.urry, ·Dona Ana; lj:ddy, Hidalgo, Lea, Luna, Quay, Roosevelt, San Juan 'and V8.lencia.~ .~

.. By June we'll l;le tea.ching the classes in 12 countieS:.· .but' oUr long-'term_ goal is tO sloWly extend· the prograp.1 to all the counties," said Karen Halder­son, an Albuquerque-baB:ed dia­betes coordin8.tOr·for the Exten-· sion Service . Who hialped pie­pare ·the course curriculum this year. "How fi!.St .. the classes spread dependS on funding and on our eValuation of the pro­gram'~- succes~ in the initial coUnties."'

The ·cooking classes grew out of~- partnership with the New MexicO Department of Health's DiabeteS Prevention and Control Program. Last year, the two agencieS" joint.ly contributed about $50,000 to finlPlce diabetes education in targeted COunties around the state, giveil the growing impact

·of diabetes in New MeXicO. ·I enrollment. The miscalcula­, tion resulted in thE> recommen­

dation that all 94_ schools on the original .. high improving" list be removed.

·- .The state· ranks seven til in

Included in the new list of 101 .. high improving" schools are four schools rated · as .. exemplary," two rated as "exceeds standards," 63 rated as "meets standards," and 27 rated as "probationary" in August under the state's new accountah_llity program. Five schools \\'Prf' not rated due to having small Pnrolhhents.

In calculating the data to determinP tlw original list of "high . impro\·ing" ·sChools· for 2000, the SDE's staff reviewed test scores from the CTBS5frerra~ova and New Mexico High School Compe­tency Examination. Consider­ation was givpn to socioeco~ nomic factors, including :..tu~ dent mobility and limited Eng-

_J lish proficiPncy and the num­ber ofstudPnts eligible for free or reduced lunch.

ENMU's president to retire next July

The EastPrn New Mexico UnivPrsity Board of Regents ·

· accepted the retirement of Presidl·nt Everett Frost, .Ph~.O. on Nov. 8.

GPrald Quintana, presi~. dent of the Board of Regents, said that although the board is ~rPl uctant to see the tei-m of. PrPsident Frost Come to an 1·.nd,'' it will hqnor his decision "and work with him through

1 the completion of his term." . Quintana saicl Frost will

work with the board on thP sPlection process for the his successor and will provide lPadership through the end of ,July.

During Frost's .tenure, E!'IMV received the presti­gi()US PPW Leadership Award fort Tndergraduate Education, an PXPmplitry repo~t from the North Central Asso£'iation of Colleges and.Schools, national rpc·ognition from tht> National Council for the Accrf:"ditation of Teacher Education and othPr accreditations for vari· mas departments.

.. Dr. Frost also took leader­ship roles in responding to the Legislature's mandate for acconntability in higher educa~ tion, Easten1's diversity plan and- in developing a freshman seminar progrant to help stu­dents•· adjustment to college,"

the nation for deaths due to. diabetes. About 14 percent of" New Mexjcans 40 years of age and older have the disease, which costs state residents about $1 billion per year in medical expenses, lost produc­tivity and early deaths. The problem is magnifj.ed by wide· spread .poVerty in the state, which limits people's food optioD:s and often IPads to poor nutritional choices,· contribut .. ing to the spread of diabetes and other diseases, said Martha Archuleta, Extension food and nutrition specjalist.

Hispanics are three to five times m9re likely to develop diabetes than Anglos, and Native Americans are 10 to 15 times more likely, creating a higher risk of diabetes for much of the state's population.

'We started the diabetes education program a little over a year ago in direct response to

·the growing need for that kind of assistance in New Mexico," Archuleta said. ''Through the partnership with the Depart­ment Of Health, we approved mini-grants of $1,000 to $2,000 to Extension offices in 16 coun-ti " es.

Archuleta said the cooking class ciuTiculurn was designed as a practice tool for partici­pants to adopt in -their everjday lives, combining informatiOn about diabetes with infonn'ation about cooking.

BUS The district's activities buses seem to have. too many activities; they keep breaking down on the road. . {rz :Ltn.lington, boosters charter. football. team buses. A<tlvltles buses In the maintenance yard. . , ..

BY SANPY SUGcmT RUIDm'O· NEWS. STAFF WRJT.£11

·TI· · e Ruidoso·- High School varsity · -football team•s· bus broke down Nov,

· . 3 a~r the Portales game. The track team was en route to a state crOss­country meet· in Albuquerque e.nd the

. team had to wait three h(lurs .at a rest ~ea "for another bus. · .

'We sat there waiting for another bus on a cold, windY, rairiy cfay," said Ronnie Maskew, he1;1d- crOSs-country colir!h and head track coilch. · ·

· ~e had a sehedule of times when we wanted to make sUre kids wBre fed, and to go· over the coqrse before the next tp.orning,'· he !3aid. 'We fed· them three hours late and didn't get ~r. ·to the course. They didn~t complainj they're used to· it." ·

But, Maskew said, he's been _on activ.:. jties 12 times "in the last six years when the buses have· broken down. In the 22 years he's been with the district, he said, he tJlinks __ they're breaki)"'.g down more than they used to. · ·

SuperintendeQt of Sc4ools · Mike G)adden said activities .buses break down· at least· three times a year, and have in the 28 years he's been with the district.

·· "1-wish it was .zero times, but I dt;m't . think there's anY school district·thBt can guarantee that,'' Gladden said. ''I know that it's ~trating when . they have a breakdown."

Gladden said he will talk with Milton Jackson, the vehicle mainteitance peTSQil, to seP if something can be done to ensure -fewer breakdowns. ·

"W~ don't.tak:e it lightly," he said. ''We want them to be able to leave heie and to -return here without ·any· problems, so that's our goals." ·

Two Warrior buses for long trips ·are vintage 1992 and 1993 and ·have -160,000 miles o:h them, Jackson said. A 32-Passenger bus .for smaller teams is a 1999, and cheerleaders and tennis and volleyball teams Suburbans, 1994, 1995 and two 1999s.

The activity buses and Suburbans each travel between 20,000 and 25,000 miles a year, Gladden said. The buses are for field trips and athletics and the Sub­urbans are for smaller teams that can fit into two of them, sUch as the golf team, and for staff to attend professional devel-

MENUS

oprnent- ac,tivities. · "Wi!;!'ve broken down twice thiS year,

. agd that's a pretty good record-." Jacka.on said. "The .starter WBJlt out-in Las crUCes when th_e middle school was using it and

· a bolt tell out for that track team. It had ~- been there-&ilice_ '93. ..... .

Jackson said he' couldn't. even count the number 9ftrips 1;he -b~ have taken so far.

'They nm -continumisly, .8.11-the time, hundreds of. trips· a year. Sometimes these buses roll in here long enough to check the oil, and· out they go," he said. ·

Gladden said the tranSpOrtatiOu department inspects the buses every six months. During maj_or· repairs, the dis-· irict Uses the Blue Bird or the Thomas distributor.

But bre&.kdowns are rough on coaches and teams_.

'"It's sort ·of a joke with activitieS sponsors, "Where"s your bus going to break down?"' MaSkew said. ''I jtist think, every so often you have to send them in to a big-bus place am:~ have them gone through, and I don't think we do that."'

Rodney Webb. the head. .football coach, said when he was coaching ·foot­ball, basketball imd baseball, he might· have had half a dozeil b1,1s breakdowns .

"In football this year, the first trip of the year, our bus worked but it didn't have air conditioning and· that was in August, driving across the eastern plains, and that wasn't any fun," Webb said.

"Our bus broke down after t:he Por­tales game last Friday night. We had to .get from the stadium tb the high school. The bus broke down, went dead .on us," he said.

In 1998, on the way to Albuquerque to play Rio Grande High School, the bus broke down at the intersection of Hull and Gavilan Canyon izi Ruidoso.

"You can look at it two ways," he said. "It was real close to home or real far from Albuquerque."'·

Webb said he recalled several break­downs when he was coaching baseball from 1995 to 1997, and Bord.ie Williams' (middle school football coach) bus broke down in Deming and he had to get a Las Cru.ces school bus to bring the team back.

Williams said he had two break-

. ·,

downs last·yea.r aDd one this )rea,r, but his first 12 yearS With- the district, he luld no breakdowns. .

"I dori't cori'sider that a lot because of the miles thl;lt I've gone compared to what~ happened," Williams said. · ·

The head girls golf coach, Les Carl,er, said he's coaChed for six years and only one bus broke. down on varsitY trips. and that was before the teain got out of town.

"Ronni.e's .had. a lot of problems;'.' Carter ~d. "because' at the end of the Yea.Ij in, ~ac~, (th~ buses) have been u,sed. qwte a b1t dunng the year. ·

"ActivitieS are not the only .ones that_ u.se them," .he said: · "Ies field trips. .There's never a time-where you can pull one ()Ut of service; they're used .almost ever,Y day:.., ·

Not" all school districts have the number of. breakdowns that Ruidoso "does, though. ·

The athletic coordinator for Loving­ton. "Speedy" Faith, said that district has had oilly one breakdown on an activity bus when a ta:am has been on it as long as he'S been there-· since 198L That time, the bus needed a new trans-~sion. ·

"We got new :<buses) .in '91. and ·we're currently" using those," Faith said.

· The booster club sends the Lov~ ington football teams on charter buses because. they're larger than activity })uses and more students can go along, Faith said. The volleyball team and band and choirs usP thP activities buSes, though, and therp ha\"P been no breakdoWns Since 1995, he said.

Pat Avalos, the assista'nt· activities director for Cobre High School, said two

• or three. breakdowns a year isn•t too bad. So far this jrear, though~ none 9f Cobre's activities buses has- broken down. Avalos coached softball for six years and was pever stranded, "and we have to travel to Socorro and Albu­q~rque, both for varsity and junior varsity, which is way above 50 tripst he said.

Webb said it does seem to him that the number of breakdowns is· higher in Ruidoso than in other districts he's been part of. He added that he's not ·a m~chanic but he thinks Ruidoso buses take more wear and tear because. of mountainous driving conditions.

HOW GOOD IS VISION SCREENING? Vision ~;~creening is a'q~:~ick way to spot individuals with ob- ·

vious vision problems-and signal the need for a comprehensive examination and care. It'S a low cost way for the motor~vehi~. cle departmen-t to identify wOuld be drivers who should not be · alloweQ behind the wheel without glasses. Screening helps ·schoois identify children who rhay not be able to read the blackboard. and ·~ommunity screening is often invaluable in spotting amblyopia in young children. ·

But screening iS not comp]ele eye_ care. It cannot ex.amhie the total health of the eye to identify vision abnormalities. It takes a complete optometric examination to check eye coordi­nation, side vision, tracking and otQer visual skills. Eye charts' may help the school find those who are nearsighted, but not how nearsighted. Farsightedness and astigmatism are n_ot checked at aU. Some screenings for senior citizens do check for glaucoma, but may-overlook ~ny other eye disease present.

Call or come by FAMILY VISION CENTER for addi­tional infonnation on .your vision, eye disea~es, new frame styles, lens materials and all your contact lens needs.

SCOOP BY .DIANNJ:, STALLINGS RUIDOSO IVBWS STAFF WRI18R ·

Mindful that the busy holi· day season can pose hazards· to cOmpanion animals1 the Hu­mane Society of tne United States offered some safety tips. · • Don •t give ~ co~panion ani­

mat·as a hohday· gtft. Adopting an animal is a se­

rious. long-term commitment that potential owner should make on their own.

"'Cute cuddly kittens and puppies are tempting gifts but i:hey often end u~ traumatized when taken back. according to Karen Allanach with HSUS.

The socieo/ also d,iscourages purchases of tguanas_ and other re~les that carry a risk of trans­mitting salmonella bacteria to

·humans. Instead. co.~ider pres­ents of books· and vtdeos about animals and animal care to help potential pet ownery;. make an educated decision . about pet ownership. A11an_ach said. • Let pets acclimate to a Christ-

mas .tree if it is pan of your decoratin_g !(~Cherne.

The HSUS suggests placing the tree secure!)' in the stand ana not decorating 11 for a day or two to allow pets to. become accus­tomed to it. Since aspirin is highly toxic to cu.s. feline own­ers should not US~:" it in tree water. • Decorations means. hazards

Electric cords and trim­mings such as tinsel, glass orna­ments, ribbons and garlands can be dangerous if chewed or swal­lowed by "pets. Burning candl~s can start fires if your pet knocks· them over or bruslies against them. • Parties and pets may not mix

Holiday parties aren't al­ways enjoyed by l'•ts who may be happter in a quiet space dm­ing the events. They can become overexcited frightened or be overfed by well-meaning guests. Chocolate can be toxic to do~ and. cats, turkey bones can choke an animal or· cause intes­.tinal problems. aT!d fatty foods

can lead to painful pancreatitis ... • Considerations for travel . ·

Consider leaving your pet at home in the .care of a. profes .. sional pet sitter if you have trav­el plans. If you take your pet along, make sure it is a wel­c()med gue_st and wears an iden­tifJ,cation tag with your name, home phone number and -a phone number of where you will be staying.

• Think adoption after the holidays and think local animal shelters that often offer certifi­cates for spay/neuter surgery and other health care procedures a new pet needs.

• Resist the temptation to buy puppies and kittens from pet stores.

Often these animals are sup­plied by ·"puppy mills," mass breeding facilities that are char­acterized by inhumane condi­tions. Your purchase fuels ·this trade.
