Who rescued who?

 
 This was on our facebook this morning.  And we thought it should be passed along.   We only ask, if you read this, and know someone who rescues ANY animal (be it one or one million).. Be sure they see this
Thanks
MH and Mystery
A friend sent this to me today.. Very sweet....

Unlike most days at Rainbow Bridge, this day dawned cold and gray, damp as a swamp and as dismal as could be imagined. All of the recent arrivals had no idea what to think, as they had never experienced a day like this before.

But the animals who had been waiting for their beloved people knew exactly what was going on and started to gather at the pathway leading to The Bridge to watch.

It wasn't long before an elderly animal came into view, head hung low and tail dragging. The other animals, the ones who had been there for a while, knew what his story was right away, for they had seen this happen far too often.

He approached slowly, obviously in great emotional pain, but with no sign of injury or illness. Unlike all of the other animals waiting at The Bridge, this animal had not been restored to youth and made healthy and vigorous again.

As he walked toward The Bridge, he watched all of the other animals watching him. He knew he was out of place here and the sooner he could cross over, the happier he would be. But, alas, as he approached The Bridge, his way was barred by the appearance of an Angel who apologized, but told him that he would not be able to pass. Only those animals who were with their people could pass over Rainbow Bridge.

With no place else to turn to, the elderly animal turned towards the fields before The Bridge and saw a group of other animals like himself, also elderly and infirm. They weren't playing, but rather simply lying on the green grass, forlornly staring out at the pathway leading to The Bridge. And so, he took his place among them, watching the pathway and waiting.

One of the newest arrivals at The Bridge didn't understand what he had just witnessed and asked one of the animals that had been there for awhile to explain it to him.

"You see, that poor animal was a rescue. He was turned in to rescue just as you see him now, an older animal with his fur graying and his eyes clouding. He never made it out of rescue and passed on with only the love of his rescuer to comfort him as he left his earthly existence. Because he had no family to give his love to, he has no one to escort him across The Bridge."

The first animal thought about this for a minute and then asked, "So what will happen now?" As he was about to receive his answer, the clouds suddenly parted and the gloom lifted. Approaching The Bridge could be seen a single person, and among the older animals, a whole group was suddenly bathed in a golden light and they were all young and healthy again, just as they were in the prime of life.

"Watch, and see," said the second animal. A second group of animals from those waiting came to the pathway and bowed low as the person neared. At each bowed head, the person offered a pat on the head or a scratch behind the ears. The newly restored animals fell into line and followed her towards The Bridge. They all crossed The Bridge together.

"What happened?"

"That was a rescuer. The animals you saw bowing in respect were those who found new homes because of her work. They will cross when their new families arrive. Those you saw restored were those who never found homes. When a rescuer arrives, they are allowed to perform one, final act of rescue. They are allowed to escort those poor animals that they couldn't place on earth across The Rainbow Bridge.

Sascha's Family!

We found Sascha's family!  Wait til you see these pictures of her litter sisters, her two older sisters, and most likely her father.

  Her Sister "Little Bit"

Her father, "Tom"

Her sisters, "Bonkers and Little Bit"

And another picture of Bonkers just relaxing.

So far MH is able to pic up everyone but Tom (But Tom will let MH pet him so it balances out).  We're looking into finding a vet who will work with us on getting the sisters spayed, and Tom needs a bit of work to (MH has been dressing some puncture wounds and some cuts.  Seems Tom likes to fight).

Gotcha!

Good news!  MH was heading to work the other night and saw a little kit trying to get into a apartment.  She was scratching and scratching, meowing and yowling.  But there wasn't anyone there (We found out from the neighbor that the people moved and apparently left their cat and quite a bit of odds and ends behind).  Well, MH set out to catch the little one and managed to catch her (Receiving a few scratches but nothing major).  He took her to work with him since there's several ladies that foster and volunteer at the Denton Texas shelter.

The bestest part!!  She was adopted by one of the guys there at work!  Their cat had went to the bridge about a month ago, and little kit worked her magic.  So she now has a new furrever home and family!

So without further delay.. meet Sascha!!



According to MH she is a big purrer, and loves to headbonk!

A whiff and a out.

As long as I've lived with MH, I've never liked going outside. 
And he loudly informs me of the fact that outside is bad.
Well.. We've been working on it, and so far I can't wait for MH to open the patio door so I can run out and sit there and watch everything.

We're still here

Its been a busy few weeks.  But we're finally getting back into things.  MH thought you might like some of the pictures he's taken recently (Cell-phone but not to bad)

Mmmm.. He left me the bacon crumblies from the pizza (Not to mention I got some of the chicken)

Everyone needs a place to rest their chin (Its soooo warm under the desk I can't resist falling asleep)

This is as close as one of the strays at work will let MH..  But he has his laser pointer with him so they play a few times a week and a lady there keeps them fed.
