HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO EVERYONE.........!!

We got a little sprinkling of moisture again this morning. It sure stirs Molly Mule up, I can't imagine how she will act if we ever get a "real" rain.

When Chester "finally" came in with control freak Tula this morning, he was actually walking pretty good. His arm isn't as swollen & I managed to clean enough of the ichthammol off to see a hard white spot. I still think it's a piece of bone. If we get a chance today we'll tie him up & try to look at it, & maybe clean it up a little. He's so protective though, it might be better to just watch it & let him work it out. I hope if it is a piece of bone it isn't still attached somewhere.

Actually John came in a few minutes ago, & said "Chester doesn't even want you LOOKING at his leg" & was adament enough about it to graze John's leg with a quick moving back foot. John said he thought Chester kicked a moment before, but thought he was kicking at a fly or something............. Yeh he was kicking at something alright, the nosy person that was trying to look at his leg. So he got smacked on the tush & told not to do that again. John thinks it looks like a piece of bone also. So that's two people that don't know what they are doing, in agreement.......!!!! (G)

I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving................!!!

Dear Tish, John, and all the Furkids,

When we sit down at the table tonight in front of our faux turkey,my husband and I will have so much to be thankful for! You and your family, and the new member of our family, Jack.

We all owe you a debt that can never fully be repaid... the joy of the donkeys and mules that through you, we are able to adopt.

Thank You,
Laura (Jack's new Mom)

Hi Laura:

I would like to hope that someday there would be no need for rescue & sanctuary, but until that time.........I'm so glad there are people like you that give such wonderful homes to some of these guys. Jack wasn't abused or mistreated, but he needed a home never the less, & I'm glad it has worked out so well.

Happy Thanksgiving to you all.
Tish
