      DEDICATION

      This book is dedicated to Maverick who started us on this journey of rescue! Bringing home a baby kitten in his mouth and meowing until we came to see what he was doing. Maverick made us realize compassion is a trait not limited to humans. And, to my husband David who has worked side-by-side with me every step of the way, showing me what unconditional love really is.

      picture_1_copy.jpg

      David and I have been married for over seventeen years and Maverick has been with us for sixteen of those years. Maverick is an indoor-outdoor cat and continues to be an inspiration bringing us a new baby occasionally, or babysitting while the wild (feral) Moms go hunting.

      INTRODUCTION

      dog.png

      The dog on the front page is Beauregard. Beau was scheduled to be killed at the McIntosh Animal Shelter the day that David was asked to go and look at a boxer named Sadie. When David got to the shelter he spotted Beau as soon as he went into the kennel. David asked the shelter manager about the beat up, scrawny yellow Lab and the manager told him he didn’t want to bother with that dog. She told him they chased that dog for over a year before he was caught and that he was a very aggressive dog. She mentioned the Lab was going to be put down in less than an hour and strongly encouraged him to take the boxer. David crawled into the kennel ignoring the manager’s warning that he would get bitten, and laid down on the floor with the Lab, (David raised Labs for years). When David came home he told me he could not leave that face. Beau had scars on his nose and big sad eyes on his skinny face. He had to be carried to and from the car that day and for two days after; Beau would not stand up or eat. We were convinced that Beau knew he was going to die. We gave him constant attention and assurances, during a two day period, that he was going to stay with us. Then on the third day he started eating and going outside on a leash. He has fattened up now and is very well-mannered. This is a wonderful dog for someone that wants a companion to be by their side. Beau loves to chase a ball and likes cats and other dogs. He is staying with Betty, Buddy, and Gabby in their large fenced yard and goes on walks to the river where they run and play together.

      The cat on the front page is Whisper. Whisper had an easier life than Beau in that there was someone feeding her. She was evidently an inside-outside cat for someone who also owned a dog. Whisper went under the porch of a neighbor who grabbed her and took her to the veterinarian to be killed. Why, you ask? Whisper made the mistake of getting pregnant and going under the lady’s porch to have her kittens. The lady told the veterinarian her son was allergic to cats and she would pay to have the cat killed. This was in Arkansas, and I was called immediately to let me know the lady was on her way with the cat. When I got to the clinic the cat had already been dropped off and was up on the counter being given a bath by a very large boxer. One of the vet techs had her personal dog in the office for a check-up and it took a liking to the cat.

      Of course I took the beautiful calico cat home. She was not much more than a kitten herself. David was at home sick that day which is rare; he never gets sick. I asked him if he would let the cat stay with him on the bed while I made a place for her. Whisper immediately went over to David and climbed up on his chest. By the time I found a box and cleared a place in the closet David was calling come quick I think she is getting ready to have her kittens. I ran in with the box and put it in the closet, and put her in it. She jumped out and went back onto the bed with David. Anyone who has cats knows that they do not normally want to be around people when they deliver their kittens. I placed the box in the middle of the bed and put Whisper in it. This was Whisper’s first litter and she was having a little problem with the first kitten. I was petting her and told her she needed to push or I was going to have to help her. As if she could understand, she put her back against the box and put a paw on each of my hands and gave a big push. The kitten was a big one for such a tiny Mom. Whisper was fine with the other three and they were all a beautiful Maine Coon mix.
