Just Meandering

Today I turn 54 years old. When I look back on my life, I don’t see any accomplishments that would make me newsworthy or inspire my parents to be very proud of me.

I live a simple life, I struggle sometimes to get by like most everyone else I know these days. I don’t go on long extravagant trips, spend money gambling, drinking or drugging. I try to follow the basic Bible Principles, but my life has been relatively quiet for the most part.

I see behind me instead of accolades for scholastic achievments, or scads of friends wanting to just spend time with me…I see a line of kitties that were able to gain a foothold in a world they did not ask to join. I see them brought to health and sent off to live in a forever loving home. I recall with fondness the emails sent over the years from grateful web-surfers who stumble on to my kitten-rescue.com and are able to take what is offered there and apply it to their situation and successfully raise a feral or stray kitten into a loving companion.

One such surfer said that my site “demystifies the process and takes it from complicated to loving and simple.”

I guess in the long run, that’s not a bad legacy to leave behind.

  1. Happy Birthday!! You have made such a difference in the lives of so many-you do not even realize. Not only have you saved so many cats and kittens that have crossed your path, but you have given such useful information and advice to many others. About 3 years ago I trapped a feral cat, I had previously trapped her kittens and found them a wonderful home and took her to my vet. It was October and the weather was beginning to change. My vet suggested that I have her spayed, ear marked and put her back out. I just could not do it. I started looking on the internet for advice and some help. A few sites said that I should put her back where she was but one person told me to give it a try. That was you and now she is a very happy and contented part of our family. I love her so much and she is happy indoors. It took a very long time and alot of patience, but it was so worth it. I am sure that I am one of many many people who can relate a story of how you have impacted their lives. God Bless you today and always.
