Something else I did was a mass e-mail to a couple dozen of my friends who know I'm a budgie person asking them directly to vote.

I brought up the fact that one of my little guys -- Mieli -- racked up a decent vet bill to treat a bad case of scaly mites before I adopted him. Given that most of what we want the grant for is veterinary care, it doesn't hurt to make the case more personal with friends, if it applies.

And I modified my e-mail signature to include the shortened Pepsi link to our page.

These are little things any of us can do to get the votes in.
