About Us

A Couple of Strays

We are brother and sister; two wandering strays who happened to find ourselves here, planning the business of our dreams. I had a new patent and high hopes, Bro is a man of many talents, there would be no interruptions this time. Right?

We moved into a place which suited us perfectly. Friends insisted it was a shell, but rent was cheap and we had a workshop.

Soon we had ourselves a supermodel, too; and then all hell broke loose. Our definition of “success” had to change, and instead of creating a future we began to create safe haven…

We’ve often referred to this area as a dumping ground for Future Serial Killers of America. They practice on animals, y’know. We were in the wrong place at the right time, and old hands at dealing with both medical emergencies and general travesties.

A Family of Orphans

Ignorance definitely has its charm (and fans). We could’ve played dumb. But we see ourselves in “the least of our brethren.”

Animals’ suffering — especially their suffering at the hands of alleged “humans” — is no less heartbreaking than the suffering of any human.

We changed course for them as reflexively as we’ve changed course for people. We knew that many would not survive their injuries and/or illnesses, but we didn’t want them to die filled with fear, believing humans are capable only of evil. Neither did we envision the “Summer thing” becoming an era, however.

Having just passed the twelve-year mark and now circling the drain, we pray for a miracle. Wearing our earrings and bracelets means you’ve helped save the lives of our “permanent residents” as well as the lives of those just passing through, and you’re giving new life to solid steel ecig cartridges (among other things) which would otherwise spend eternity in a landfill.

Thanks to all who wish us shelter from the storm…
