Thank you, everyone, for thinking of Japan on the March 11th anniversary of the earthquake and tsunami. Yesterday’s charity dance video shoot went brilliantly. We’re excited to share it with you.

Let’s not forget Japan’s animals, who went through hell after the disaster, and still are in great need. Thousands are stuck in the exclusion zone, where rescue groups are not allowed in.

I wrote a Huffington Post article about Fukushima’s pets. I hope you’ll read & share. They need our help.

I urge you to donate, or raise funds for well-vetted charities. Last year, Seba and I took part in a variety of fundraising, including art auctions, writing articles…

… and collaborating on a charity fashion and jewelry line to benefit Japan, which you can find here.

All of these activities are covered in my Japan Earthquake section.

Interviewing Japan animal rescue groups makes me realize — Basil Farrow is one lucky fellow.

More photos of my kawaii kitty on my Tumblr and Instagram (lacarmina).

What are your thoughts on the animal rescue efforts, and the Japanese government’s lack of response? Leave a comment in my Huff Post article.
