As you can tell, we love animals. So much so that we have a tendency to take in just about any sad face that lands on our doorstep. That's not an invitation, either! :)
Below are thumbnails of the animals we have loved; some who are still with us and some that have crossed the Rainbow Bridge.
Click on the images to see a short biography of that pet.
"If all the beasts were gone, men would die from a great loneliness of spirit, for whatever happens to the beasts also happens to the man. All things are connected. Whatever befalls the Earth befalls the sons of the Earth."
~ Chief Seattle of the Suwamish Tribe, letter to President Franklin Pierce
If I can stop one heart from breaking,
I shall not live in vain;
If I can ease one life the aching,
Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin
Unto his nest again,
I shall not live in vain.
~Emily Dickinson
