Laurie Zaleski never aspired to run an animal rescue; that was her mother Annie's dream. But from girlhood, Laurie was determined to make the dream come true. Thirty years later as a successful businesswoman, she did it, buying a 15- acre farm deep in the Pinelands of South Jersey. Laurie had planned to relocate Annie and her caravan of ragtag rescues-horses and goats, dogs and cats, chickens and pigs -when Annie died, just two weeks before moving day. In her heartbreak, Laurie resolved to make her mother's dream her own. In 2001, she established the Funny Farm Animal Rescue outside Mays Landing, New Jersey. Today, she carries on Annie's mission to save abused and neglected animals. Funny Farm is Laurie's story: of promises kept, dreams fulfilled, and animals lost and found. It's the story of Annie McNulty, who fled a nightmarish marriage with few skills, no money and no resources, dragging three kids behind her, and accumulating hundreds of cast-off animals on the way. And lastly, it's the story of the brave, incredible, and adorable animals that were rescued"-- |cProvided by publisher. 600 10 Zaleski, Laurie. 650 0 Animal rights activists|zUnited States|vBiography. 650 0 Businesswomen|zUnited States|vBiography. 650 0 Animal rescue|zUnited States. 650 0 Animal shelters|zUnited States. 650 0 Animal welfare|zUnited States. 655 7 Autobiographies.|2lcgft 938 YBP Library Services|bYANK|n17155225 938 Brodart|bBROD|n128315709 994 C0|bORL
