Published September 30, 2009 @ 01:41PM PT

Here's part 2 of the Animals in the Blogs roundup from the past couple weeks' contributions to the AR blogosphere (part 1 here). Posts from the most recent few days aren't included here, but worry not -- they'll be in this coming Monday's roundup. (I'm trying to keep the length of this list under control, for your reading ease.) Photo at right of Bruce the pig courtesy of Animal Place Sanctuary and blog (post included below).

So read on!
