I decided to try my best to have twelve consecutive days be shaped by kind acts inspired by thoughts of kind people that I know. This is my Christmas gift to give and receive this season.
Today I spent my morning giving the volunteers of a no kill cat shelter a little rest to be with their families. Taking on the care and cleanup of their 17 current residents was a rewarding challenge as nimble kittens pried their bodies out to bound around, as I tried to sweep, wipe and refill food. They are a happy lot, with only one Mama and babe on the mend. The blue eyed Babe got extra TLC as her Mama is young and doesnt really have health on her side yet. Its been a while since I fed with a syringe, but nurturing seems to never be forgotten. I will probably go back for New Years Day to help too, and as needed thereafter.
This day is dedicated to Pamela, my redheaded fireball of a cousin who loves all creatures great and small, including me.
