An inspiring and moving memoir of the author\'s turbulent Life with 600 Rescue animals.
Although there are some sad parts (as Life always is), there are lots of laughs..
And lastly, it\'s the story of the brave, incredible, and adorable Animals that were rescued.
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.
Funny Farm is Laurie\'s story: of promises kept, dreams fulfilled, and Animals lost and found.
Today, she carries on Annie\'s mission to save abused and neglected animals.
In 2001, she established the Funny Farm Animal Rescue outside Mays Landing, New Jersey.
In her heartbreak, Laurie resolved to make her mother\'s dream her own.
She was planning 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.
Thirty years later as a successful businesswoman, she did it, buying a 15-acre farm deep in the Pinelands of South Jersey.
But from girlhood, Laurie was determined to make the dream come true.
Laurie Zaleski never aspired to run an animal rescue; that was her mother Annie\'s dream.
