I first encountered a rat one evening in a Target parking lot. When my daughter told me it was a rat, I went straight to the car and she went to get a photo of it since she's never seen one before. I assure you it wasn't little.

Cats of Kansas City

With all the crazy news we hear these days, it is understandable that people might feel helpless to make a difference. It's true that you might not be able to cure the ills of the world, but you can, quite easily in fact, make a huge, positive difference in the life of a cat. Best of all--you reap the rewards too.

Do you wonder what that nasty smell that has been cropping up all over Denver is?. I know. Denver has lots of nasty smells, including urine and feces in the alleys. There also is the unmistakable chemical smell of meth that turns some people’s stomachs. And of course, marijuana lingers in the air Denver-wide.

In 2023, Religion News reported that welel-known Pastor Steven Furtick of Elevation Church withdrew membership from the Southern Baptist Convention. No official reason was given at the time, but during the past year, it has been rumored that the issue was female preachers.

As a lifelong Wyoming hunter, I, like so many others I’ve spoken to since, was totally disgusted when I first read the news stories and saw the images of the torture and killing of a young wolf in Daniel, Wyoming. I was overwhelmed with outrage over the disturbing way this seriously injured animal was paraded around. Was there nothing we could do to stop this kind of torturous cruelty?

It’s time to draw the line on wildlife abuse and unfair chase

If you're from the Ozarks region of Missouri, you might have heard people talk about the old type of medicinal cure known as the madstone. It's hard to tell if it's true or false without personal experience, or at least whether someone in a family's long history line was treated with one of these stones.
