Well If you haven't guessed already I will tell you my world is surrounded by 4 legged creatures.

I was raised with cats. My mom loved cats. I do too but at the moment I have 9 dogs running around here & feed cats that come outside- squirrels- birds- and what ever else shows up.

I had a family of 9 dogs for 16-20 years whom I have lost all of them from 1999 to 2004. Their ages were 16-20. They were my family whom I raised most from babies on up. I was devastated when I lost the first one. He was only 7 and had cancer. He started my passion with animals.

I started with web sites and of course I love Angels and wolves so that's how I started.

Then 4 years ago I decided to get into rescue. Little did I know I would shed so many tears as you can't save them all & you know some will die. And of course with rescue you are to rescue & adopt them out. Well I do some but my rescue turned into more of a sanctuary. A couple of my friends said I flunked rescue. Oh well I love them so much and some of them just are NOT adoptable. I have one that has bit me (badly) 3 times & I almost lost him last year. But I fought tooth & nail to save him & he's doing Great!! He came with alot of baggage and I decided I was going to help him unpack and he is the most loving baby now but I know his limits.

Anyway I got into Puppy mills and am with a wonderful group that is trying to stop the cruelty. From there I started with Chained dogs and finally it became all animal abuse. I have quite a few sites on alot of things but they are animal related. I love doing web pages so I am constantly putting up new ones. I do what I can to help those that I can.

Then a couple years ago I had a calling to become a Pet Chaplain. Oh I fought it at first. But finally decided if that was what I was to do I would follow what ever I was called to do. So I took the course and became an ordained Pet Chaplain. After losing two of my rescues in 2005 & 2006 I felt I could help to ease the pain of others who had lost their little one. I had no one when I lost my first one and it is important for someone to know that someone out there understands the pain and cares. And I sure do.

But I felt there was more and that led me to take a couple courses in Animal Communication. I haven't done alot with it as yet but do intend to work more with it now.

And of course with all my rescues (I tend to get the old & sick ones) I was always at the vets. Thought seriously about keeping a sleeping bag there. But they didn't go for it.

That's when I decided to check out Reiki. I researched it & read many books & articles on it and felt it went hand in hand with what I was already doing. But I only wanted to do sessions with animals.

So--- I took Reiki I and then I took it again after I learned more about it. Then decided to take Reiki II. I wanted to help my babies but then I felt compelled to help any of the babies who needed it. After all God loves them all and I see so many who need help.

So this is how it all started. My world after I finish a full time job is surrounded around my babies and all the ones out there who need me.

I wouldn't be surprised if I grew a tail. LOL.

But one day I will see all my little ones again and maybe if I'm lucky I will get to take care of alot more. That would be a great reward.

So this is my life & where I go from here is where ever I am led to go
