| Kimmy: Around 1991, when I took garbage to the dump in Tuscaloosa, AL, there was a sad little puppy who had been left there. She was sitting on a and a large place on her side that looked like a scar from a burn. It was became a regal, grand, princess of a dog. I am blessed that she was in my life until she a very old lady. |
| Punky: Around 1986 my Mama took in a in front of her home for a few days. When my Mama broke her leg a short time later, she asked me to take Punky. Punky moved to live with me in Pike Road, Al, then to Tuscaloosa, then to Versailles, KY. She developed diabetes in 1996. I gave her insulin shots, which she hated. I think the sweetest story about Punky was this: My mom was in a nursing home after having a stroke. I took Punky to Sheffield, AL to visit my mom in March, 1997. When we went to the nursing home, Punky knew our Mama. My Mama knew Punky. It was a wonderful reunion. The day after we got home from our visit, Punky died peacefully in her sleep. I guess she just wanted to go home again one more time. |

| BC (Barn Cat) school parking lot in Tuscaloosa, AL. I rescued him, and took him to my classroom. One of my students wanted to know if he had a motor in him purring. He went to the "Rainbow Bridge" recently at age 18. |
