Here are some of God's four-legged creatures who continue to bring smiles of joy to my heart...and to the hearts of those who have been touched by their gentle souls.
For those of you who are cat lovers... Here are some pictures of my babies that I rescued two years ago when they were five weeks old. They were all abandoned by their mother's in my prayer garden! Sasha is the eldest, being four months older than Mimi and Touche who are about three weeks apart in age. Needless to say, it was pretty crazy raising three kittens that were so close together in age!

weeks old...drying off

Sorry, but she hasn't
learned modesty yet!
A year later she still loves
to show off her tummy!
I'm acting like a lady now!
Even although she was a baby herself,
Mimi chose to "mother" Touche
for the first four months of her life by
letting her "nurse" on her...

can have a moment of undisturbed
rest!

Mimi found Sasha her "bossom" buddy!
Sassy Sasha always wants things her way!

But on second thoughts the bed is a more comfortable place to relax...
and dream of birds!
Here are my other babies... Yes I know they are fully grown dogs, but I've raised them since they were not quite babies... Lucy, the Laso Apso I rescued from the street when she was about 7 months old, and Simba, the Australian Shepherd was given to me by someone who could no longer take care of her when she was about four months old...
Simba & Lucy were buddies for many years...
Simba was always thirsty after she got diabetes.
Simba was a very loving dog who always wanted to sit on your feet and be petted. She had warm gentle eyes that took in everything...even after she lost her eyesight to diabetes, she still could "see" when someone needed some loving...
Washing Lucy's eyes was something Simba liked to do on a regular basis! Even after she went blind, she continued to find Lucy's eyes in need of regular attention...
Yes, God uses furry friends to minister His unconditional love to us when
we least expect Him to show up!
