Two cartoonists are our favorites because of their support of animal rescue ... Dan Piraro, who draws Bizarro and Patrick McDonnell, who draws Mutts. The latter usually does a week of "shelter stories" strips sometime in the course of the year to encourage adoption of shelter and rescue animals. Today's strip is one of his bird-related shelter stories, from November 5, 2013.
