humanity
Isn't it ironic that the very best of humanity is seen through the love and empathy we show to our pets?
Lucky Black Kitten
When I was 22, I moved into a tiny one-bedroom apartment for 500 dollars a month. But I did not move into an unoccupied space, upon moving in I discovered I had at least one squatter. A bold little mouse who was not afraid of people and would often take strolls across my bedroom floor. Now I grew up in a row house and living that close to other people, the occasional pest isn’t unheard of, but my family always kept a cat, and I was discovering why. So after two weeks in my new apartment, I headed up to a local shelter to adopt a cat.

On The Road 🌤
Enjoying the smaller things in life I sat there in my royal blue, polyester chair while enjoying a nice cup of black coffee along with a potato sandwich and a pickle for the added sour and savory taste. My dog, Max rested on his own polyester chair that gave him the same sense of comfort my chair had also given me.

KNOCKING ON HEAVENS DOOR
I was abruptly startled from my deep meditation (some would call it an early nap) by a loud banging in the vicinity of my rear window. “Now who could that be at this time of the morning,” I thought. “And why did they not use the front doorbell?” I quickly rose from my comfortable chair in the living room. “One of my neighbors must be having some sort of emergency,” I quickly surmised. There it goes again the banging continued intermittently, close to the windowpane. I hesitated at the rear door for a moment assessing the situation, then decided that I would look out of the window first before opening the door to who knows what.

My Love for Dog Authority
My girlfriend’s name is Gina Adeopju and she runs a service called Dog Authority. Before I get into what Dog Authority is, let me tell you a little about Gina and this will help explain the “why” of Dog Authority. Gina is a big-hearted woman from up north, the State of Michigan where restaurants only serve 1 type of tea. Her love language seems to be “constantly”, and she faces life with wide-eyed enthusiasm. Not only does she love people, but she also loves animals. Phrases like “let’s go eat dead animal flesh for dinner” will only provoke a negative response out of her. Gina makes friends everywhere she goes, and she’s never met a dog that she didn’t like. For anyone who needs a Masterclass in forgiveness, they only need to watch Gina in action for about a few hours. God blesses us all with talents and Gina’s talents seems to be love.

How To Name Your Bovine
Naming animals is a very personal thing; it says something about the critter, but more importantly it says something about you. Many an animal has been stuck with an unfortunate name, because its owner was too self-absorbed to think rationally.

The Cost of Living Increase Will Cause People to Abandon Their Pets
Prices have increased. Taxes have risen and the number of families who have fallen below the poverty line has grown. Make no mistake about it, we are living through a time of crisis. A time in history where, rather than work together to build a better tomorrow, we have war and destruction in Ukraine, with ordinary citizens being caught in the middle.

Rescuing A Dog Named ...?
This is an account of another Lost Dog incident— one with a happy ending. On March 22, 2014, I was working on the other side of my hometown, Anderson, Indiana, and on my way home, as I turned into the little subdivision where I live, heading toward the street where my house is located... I saw this little dog running.

MY CAT
This is the short version: Some people don’t understand the value of a pet. Some people have never owned a pet. When I was a child, my family had a dog. Her name was Princess. I don’t remember what breed she was, but I remember she was all white. She was a cute dog. I remember we had to have her put down because she had gotten very sick. I remember going to the vet with my father on that day. I remember crying in the parking lot afterwards. It’s so sad to have a pet put down. That was over 30 years ago.
