I have not had that experience and quite frankly this alone is enough to keep me single.

I am heading into a stretch of 3 surgeries. I am not going to be able to take care of myself and my current pets, without assistance. I am eager to get these done so I can once again foster. Poor little Max was so grateful for his time with me...and there are SO many others out there needing some kind hand.

I know, someday, in decades or centuries, they will look at us in this time in history and see us as barbarians, for how we mangled the web of life and how indifferent we were to other living things. They will see this time as a holocaust.

if you can, open your home to a needy animal, who without you, might be put down. One life is a huge deal. One life that otherwise, would be surrendered because our kind, cant committ to caring enough to be kind and responsible to those pitiful beings...

BUT BUT BUT.... You just might meet someone like Damon who cant tell me no!!! He just smiles at me when I tell him my dreams... and he would do it for me in a heartbeat..

Now,,,,, if I could get him a tiger to foster... he would be moving hell and high water to make sure the laws let him have it.. lol... he LOOOOVVESSS tigers.. But he also knows they are better off in the wild... but hey who wouldnt love to play with a cuddly tiger?? I still havent been able to take him to Turnpentine Creek... Hopefully it cools off soon.. I want to plan a weekend with him there. They are a tiger rescue sanctuary and have cabins in the air above the tigers.. You get to hear them roar at night... he will be so happy I think he will not be able to stop grinning..

ugggghhh... ok gotta get stuff in the car.. Sweetie has 20 mins to wake up and get out of the hotel room..

this is one of those situations where I hold myself and rock as I pray...I cannot imagine the inhumanity of this person. I also dont understand how the ASPCA touted her stable as a top morgan stable just a few years before this. How does a top stable topple into this kind of travesty? Those horses featured in the photos were rail thin and living in unhealthy and unsafe conditions. It also looked like some of their manes had been chewed off. Horses will often resort to eating manes and tails when they are starved. And if she is a top breeder, why didnt members of this breed step up and try to help these horses before it got to this point? All too often, people gossip but do nothing. If they did know, then shame on them for not speaking out and helping these horses.

Where I live, people sometimes do leave a bit of manure of manure in the stall by the walls to keep heat in...I know the amish do this. I have heard 4H advisors tell kids to do this. My own father did this. But no one who practices this the way it should be practiced, ever leaves more than a low layer, just against the wall. Certainly not in the middle. And never would a horse be able to sink in it. Did you see how high that manure was??? The smell of manure and urine that built up, rips the lungs and nostrils of the horse. How hopeless those poor horses must have felt. If you have never seen a depressed horse, it is so pitiful. Again, someday we will be known as barbarians and it will be said there was a holocaust that we allowed to happen...

And certainly no horse is covered with manure. That poor horse's belly that was all matted up. Mats HURT. It pulls the skin. Every movement is like someone pinching them.

I would like to hear more about this in the future, Ms Morningstar. I am going to ask some of my rescue friends, and a friend of mine in the morgan business about this case. If I find out anything that hasnt been reported here, I will post it..

thank you for bringing it to our attention. One more set of prayers for my prayer book...
