A new bright star in the midnight sky - sweet boy the Bleu

He fought the good fight and he fought hard with his the Mom FURever and always by his side. But sometimes the Universe pulls harder on a soul than we would like and someone we l♥ve is called to complete his Circle of Life. That is how it was for the Bleu. He left us physically, but what he left behind is testament to the impact he had on so many when he paw'd this earth along with us.

♥Darling the Bleu, you are now in Heaven with your brofur, the Luke, because your the Mom loved you so deeply that she was willing to experience monumental pain to give you the freedom to run free of pain♥. I salute your the Mom for her courage and for her passionate love and commitment to you. It's NEVER good-bye, sweetheart, it is ALWAYS 'see you later'. All my l♥ve, your the Mimi

Please, if you have the time, would you travel to his blog to leave a word of comfort for his the Mom and for his brofur, the Reufus. They are in deep mourning.

"We who choose to surround ourselves with lives even more temporary than our own, live within a fragile circle, easily and often breached. Unable to accept its awful gaps, we still would live no other way. We cherish memory as the only certain immortality, never fully understanding the necessary plan." ~Irving Townsend.

A 'feel good' cry if there ever was one...

I know it might sound sappy, but when I see videos like the one above it makes me proud to be someone who shares her life with these wonderful animals. No, not all dogs will lead the blind; however, within each and every K-9 ♥ is a love for mankind that cannot be duplicated or surpassed.

From our home to yours...

One - imPAWtant - word...

Let us NEVER forget those who have less - NEVER!

Our economy is horrible. Many of us are without a job and worry about how we'll pay next month's bills. It's difficult to imagine how we will care for ourselves, let alone give to charity. But, it doesn't take money to make someone's Christmas brighter, warmer or better. Volunteer at your local animal shelter. Donate a bag of kitty litter (generic). Take a shelter dog for a walk. Brush a shelter kitty and listen to it's gentle purr. Many shelters allow pets up for adoption to spend the holidays with a 'foster family'.

I've barely touched on the many things we can do for animals that are less fortunate than ours. PLEASE don't forget them - they need you more at this time of year when many do not have adequate shelter and need extra kibble to generate the body heat that will keep them alive throughout the cold, winter months.

Five K-9 lives lost at the home of Kiss-a-bull, a tremendous fire.

It is with deep sadness that I report a fire took place at the home of Kiss-a-bull in Houston, Texas during the wee hours of this morning. All humans are safe. Five dogs have perished - among those who died is Shelby, the sweet rescue who was found near death in a parking lot about 18 months ago and nursed back to health. There are five, bright, new stars in our midnight sky.

There is no mention of the fire on the Kiss-a-bull blog (entirely understandable); however, condolences may be left on their last post. Donations are being collected here to assist the family and surviving animals.

The last will and testament of a very intelligent dog

POWER of the PAW needed immediately for GINGER JASPER, a cat who is a FURend to dogs.

Ginger Jasper, the kitty who l♥ves eFURyone - cat or dog - needs some really HUGE PURRayers from alla' us PRONTO. He needs the POWER of the PAW in mega doses. After a furry long time of being sick his momma and dadda found out that his kidneys are failing. He is now at the dog-tor getting them flushed in hopes that the treatment will make him feel betters and will make him want to eat some food-ables. Please rally 'round this most worthy of love English kitty.
