Reader photo of the day: Gipper's big stretch
Submitter Britt shares this sweet shot of her rescued kitten, Gipper, who certainly seems to be enjoying his new digs! Gipper "was deserted with [two] siblings at the door of a pet store," Britt explains. A friend who worked at the store notified Britt, who adopted Gipper and brought him home. It looks like he's settled in nicely!
Think your photo deserves to be our reader photo of the day? We'd love to see it -- and it's easy for you to show us! Just head to the Pets & Animals section at The Times' photo-sharing site, Your Scene, and select the appropriate album. (For instance, Britt submitted her photo to the Kittens album.) Then click the "submit" link at the top of the page, select your photo (.jpg format) and tell us something about your photo in the caption -- voila, you're done!

I was reading about Buddy and Sherry Hackett and the Singita Animal Sanctuary they founded and supported. I found on the web that the Sanctuary declared bankruptcy in 2007. I came across the old website for the organization and was wondering if they have reorganized or if the Annual Comedy Benefit for Singita continues. It was a wonderful idea of the Hacketts, I hope it is being continued. Does anyone have any information about what happened?
