Lucky-Our Rescue Cat

We just got him today. We are introducing him to our two dogs. Our dogs are very excited about their new pal.

Our poodle licked Lucky's face. Lucky is timid right now, but I am sure he will feel better. He is going to sleep with my youngest daughter who is very excited about our new pet.

He is a very gentle loving cat.

This is one of my daughters holding Lucky. He is already purring and happy. He comes to us when we call. My girls adore him.

He is still weak and quite tired. He is one of the ones that struggled to make it.

Sometimes I think people think they as one person do not make a difference. I just heard my mother in law, who is a wonderful lady and one of the most thoughtful caring people I know, say today that she did not think it would make a difference if she voted.

I believe each and every one of us matters, we can change the world one person at a time. If enough people do something, change happens, whether that be taking in a rescued animal, donating to a cause close to your heart or going out to vote.

This topic reminds me of The Starfish Story by Loren Eisley, a story close to my heart. I will share it with you below.

A story about making a difference



One day a man was walking along the beach when he noticed
a boy picking something up and gently throwing it into the ocean.

Approaching the boy, he asked, "What are you doing?"

The youth replied, "Throwing starfish back into the ocean.
The surf is up and the tide is going out. If I don't throw them back, they'll die."

"Son," the man said, "don't you realize there are miles and miles of beach and hundreds of starfish?
You can't make a difference!"

After listening politely, the boy bent down, picked up another starfish,
and threw it back into the surf. Then, smiling at the man, he said%u2026"

I made a difference for that one."

Oprah on puppy mills

Oprah has done some shows about rescuing animals. It will break your heart to see what happens to some animals.

The more we care and do something, the less animals will have to suffer.

What her flyer says

Your pets are welcome at our house and while they are here they are part of our family. Either way, your pets will not just be cared for, they will be cared about.

Your pets are as special to me as mine are. I sing to them and they don't run away. I talk to them and they understand. I give great kitty and doggie massages and they always come back for more.
