Claudia
In loving memory of Claudia Ann Davis Claudia was a very beautiful, smart, shy cat that lived with us for three years and died an untimely death on February 18, 2007. She was a feral cat who took very good care of her kittens in the wild. Claudia was a loving mother to her kittens: Twix,Blue and Sapphire and a wonderful aunt to Twinkie. Twinkie made her feel safe and welcome. She also took great care of Boo Boo and made the entire cat family completed. Claudia was a feral cat that was very happy in her little world. She loved when we would come into the room and did a little jump for joy and had a sweet smile on her face. Her purr was so loud that you could hear her from across the room and took as much pleasure in our family of kittens being petted,even when no one could even touch her. After three patient years, we had just started to pet her entire body and adorable face. She took great pleasure in those loving moments and purred in thanks. Claudia was just starting to be more relaxed and was very happy when she suffered a fatal accident in our home. She died instantly and without pain. We are all grateful for her life and for a quick and merciful death. She deserved more but we gave her all that we could. We miss her every day and still have trouble counting five bowls of wet food instead of six. Rest in peace, our "Claudie Girl." We will see you beyond the rainbow bridge. Jody and Ken Davis and Family

Lucky
Lucky crossed over the rainbow bridge on 3/26/07 He was full of love in his heavy-beating heart and will be missed by all who knew him at the rescue. Lucky was a gentle soul who was found by Melanie, one of our kind volunteers, Melanie took the trouble to pull him off the street, hoping to locate his owners who surely could never abandon such a wonderful, smart, kind dog like Lucky. Melanie brought him to the rescue where he found love, lots of treats, daily walks, car rides, and outreaches to attend, hoping for a good home. Instead, his home and his family were all the volunteers at the rescue and he died with dignity and little pain. Lucky was never any trouble to all who knew him and he stayed comfortably in his blanket-laden crate and the warmth in his eyes showed us how grateful he was for the attention that he received in the last several months of his life. We tip our hat to you, ol' gent, and we bid you a farewell for now...
