Animal Friends



The saddles and bridles got cleaned today. That keeps hard working horses comfortable. Now they're in their beds. The fish hide behind their rocks to sleep; and the piglet munches happily on her late night snack.

Animals have heart, a heart attached to their stomach. Can you blame them? They live in their corals, their cages, their tanks day in and day out, never demanding, never questioning, never complaining. But anytime a human walks by, a big horse's head hangs over the shoulder, a little piglet "weet, weets" for attention, and the clowns dance with delight.

Pets are living things dependent on care. They aren't just a diversion, an escape from boredom, or a therapeutic fix. They are a gift of God.
