Update, 7/29/09: Duchess & Darling’s listings are no longer available on Petfinder. I do so hope this means they’ve found their forever homes.

Dutchess and her daughter Darling have seen some rough times; they were abused by their former “owners,” and were rescued by the McPherson County Humane Society, of which they’re now wards. Mother and daughter want desperately to stay together, but they need a loving home and caring angel to make that happen.

And oh yeah, did I mention that Dutchess and Darling are ponies?

Hi, my name is Dutchess. Both my daughter and I were rescued by the McPherson County Humane Society. We were horribly abused but are doing much better now. We need to find a place to live but because of our condition cannot live in a grass pasture. We would like to remain together so if you have a place for two beautiful girls please contact the McPherson County Humane Society.

Dutchess is up-to-date with routine shots.

McPherson, Kansas is located about 190 miles (that’s a three-hour drive) from Kansas City, Missouri. Since ponies aren’t as easy to find as cats and dogs (or even rats!), that’s a short distance to drive to find your forever pony-kid, I think!

If you’re interested in adopting these two gals, check out the McPherson County Humane Society’s Petfinder page.

Each Wednesday, the Kansas City Freecycle blog will feature one adoptable animal from a local KC rescue group or animal shelter.

We do this for several reasons:

- To highlight the plight of companion animals in the Kansas City area.

- To remind members of our no-animal policy, and provide an alternative venue for members who wish to adopt an unwanted animal.

- To encourage members to adopt a furry friend.

- To help out out local animal rescue groups and animal shelters, many of which are overwhelmed by the sheer number of animals in need.

- To illustrate these animals’ unique personalities and characteristics, thus underscoring the fact that they are not objects and should not be “freecycled”.
