My elder kitty, Toons left this world on December 13, 2007. I miss him more than I can say. He was a precious, noble soul who deserves every ounce of happiness he has at the Rainbow Bridge now.
Thank you for your friendship and your prayers!

Goofey is doing very well now. He's sweet and silly and ever so loving!! He gives hugs and kitty kisses and wraps my heart in love. His brother Tweety is getting to be a big boy and is very sweet. Claws is still the same "Mr. Attitude" he has always been.






"Everything of cruelty to animals
is a violation of moral duty."
- Thomas Paine

"If a being suffers there can be no moral justification for refusing to take that suffering into consideration."
—Peter Singer

"Never doubt that a small group of
committed citizens can change the world,
indeed, it's the only thing that ever has."
Margaret Mead

"Until he extends the circle of his compassion
to all living things,
man will not himself find peace."
Dr. Albert Schweitzer

In the end we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.

Baba Dioum, Senegalese conservationist (b. 1937)

Please take the time to read the story of wolf #10

and you won't be the same.....

A POEM IN HONOR OF WOLF #1O

He's The First

He's the first.
He's the Alpha,
The leader of the pack.
He stands tall and proud.
He's called Number 10.
He leaves the pen,
The boldest wolf of all.

He's the first.
To be free in Yellowstone.
He calls to his mate,
His howl long and low.
Come run with me,
Be free with me,
Live with me,
In this new land of plenty.

He's the first.
Walking slowly along the ridgeline,
Silhouetted against the sky.
Does he see --
The reflection of the scope,
The man with the rifle.

He's the first.
The only wolf who would run close,
When they came inside the pen.
The only wolf who left for freedom,
When the door was opened.
The only wolf to stand,
In sight of all,
And howl for his mate.
The only wolf who has shown little fear,
He shows none now.

He's the first.
He feels it rip thru his body!
Why?
What has he done?
He's gone!
Shot!
Dead!
By way of a rifle, a scope, a bullet,
A MAN -- For FUN!!

He's the first!
But he lives on!
In our hearts!
Through his sons and daughters.
His song will always be heard in the Lamar.
He will always be remembered!

Shhh...Listen to the Howl on the wind.

Fact: The Gray Wolf mates for life.

Fact: The Gray Wolf, the Red Wolf,
and the Maned Wolf are all on the
U.S. Endangered Species list.

To look into the eyes of a wolf, is to look
into your soul

Quentin's Story

THE ANIMALS' SAVIOR

I looked at all the caged animals in the shelter . . . the cast-offs of human society.

I saw in their eyes love and hope, fear and dread, sadness and betrayal. And I was angry.

"God,", I said, "this is terrible! Why don't you do something?"

God was silent for a moment, and then He spoke softly. "I have done something,", He replied. "I created You."

Jim Willis, Author

from Kathy G's Care2 page

(I hope you don't mind that I borrowed this one Kathy. It's just that it truly says it all, doesn't it?)

A rose to all my friends at Care2.
You are indeed very special to me,
more than you know.
Blessings and Hugs from me to you!

Melanie B. (142)	Dearest Linda, it was so wonderful to see your wolf avatar in the group. I've missed you! I can't believe how much time has passed... I've been away myself, and doing my best to catch up. But just wanted to let you know how good it feels to cross paths with you again in this "cyberspace". Sending warmest wishes to you and the whole gang, , Melanie

Ana M. (1141)	A Special World A special world for you and me A special bond one cannot see It wraps us up in its cocoon And holds us fiercely in its womb. Its fingers spread like fine spun gold Gently nestling us to the fold Like silken thread it holds us fast Bonds like this are meant to last. And though at times a thread may break A new one forms in its wake To bind us closer and keep us strong In a special world, where we belong. ... with Love Ana
