I am watching a show in the weather channel about the amazing dog teams who got a lifesaving package of diptherua serum th Nome, Alaska in 1925.
It’s an amazing story- men and dogs who risked their lives to save so many.
Around me, six cats are sleeping.
I am awed by the bravery of these beautiful creatures.

Kitty feedin and kitty lovin
Posted in animals, blackberry on Jan 2nd, 2009
I spent a good portion of the afternoon figuring out some problems with my phone and this site. I downloaded Opera Mini, which did a remarkable amount to solve the problem.
Now I am at my friend Beth’s house, where I will be house sitting and kitty feeding all weekend. With a little luck, I’ll be [...]
PETA asks Ben & Jerry’s to use breast milk.
As in, human breast milk.
I find this article so stunning that I can’t even find words for it.
I am an absolute believer in kindness to animals. Animal cruelty is WRONG, no two ways about it! But I also believe that animals were given to us to nourish [...]
so cute!!!

**Update: I did NOT take this photo! I found it online tonight and just think it’s adorable!!**
I’ve always said that if I were to become a veterinarian, I would really struggle with putting animals to sleep. Even when they are old and in pain, it feels a little bit like “becoming God”. So I really respect veterinarians who are able to do that.
Yesterday I read this fascinating article about the veterinarian’s [...]
Yup. Tonight we have black rat snakes on our porch.
This isn’t the first time they have visited our house following heavy rains. Our house is one of the highest places in the neighborhood (in terms of elevation), and there is a large wooded area one block away.
However, this IS the first time they [...]
It’s 2am and I can’t sleep, so I decided to get online and blog for awhile. Here’s a kitty story from today that you can all enjoy.
My pastor’s oldest daughter, Abbie, is 17 years old. For a 17-year-old kid, she’s pretty cool. She’s very intelligent, and most Sundays I will have a conversation with her [...]
In Tirana, Albania, a cat chased a mouse into some high-voltage power lines, leading to a power outage that lasted 72 hours and the deaths of both the cat and mouse.
It’s a shame that two cute animals can lead to such havoc.
Okay, do you remember a few months ago (dec. 25 to be precise) when three kids were attacked and one was killed by a tiger at the San Francisco Zoo? That situation infuriated me… It’s true that the zoo’s enclosure did not meet the “recommended” specifications. But come on - that enclosure held tigers for [...]
In Atlanta, Georgia, an injured zebra was found grazing along Interstate 75.
He’s the type of animal that is (typically) found in Africa. Or in zoos. So obviously, finding him along a highway in the US qualifies as very unusual. One of the veterinarians who treated this zebra said he probably fell from [...]
