Cats FREE TO A GOOD HOME
Putts, the mother had been abandoned at the Veterinary’s
door step pregnant, gave birth to three stillborn kittens and
three days later her fourth
(Boots) was born! The Veterinary allowed me to take them when
Boots was four weeks old. They are strictly indoor cats as they
are both declawed. They are very gentle, calm cats with talkative
personalities. They are not used to young children and will simply
hide and stay out of sight. The Vet guessed the mother’s age to
be approximately 3 when I adopted them eight years ago. They are
healthy and both are fixed.
I have to part with them due to allergies within
the family and the arrival of my first granddaughter. As you can
see from the picture, these two are inseparable. I do want them
to go to a loving home and will give all the cat paraphernalia
with them.
For further information email Madeleine at 2maddee@rogers.com.

Dear friends in Christ,
I awoke this morning with a 'feeling', an urging really, that
I should write this message as it might be needed by someone today
(Friday June 16).
Are you feeling burdened, as if, like the three Israelites, you
too are in the 'fiery furnace? Then perhaps you should join them
in giving praise to God. God loves the praises of His people and
'the other one' flees when he hears them. You will find the praises
in Daniel 3: 26-45. The praises of Daniel can be found in the
same chapter, verses 52-90. Remember, God does hear our prayers,
but sometimes He answers them in His time, not ours. He is the
only one who can 'see around the corner'.
I have recently started a daily Holy Hour Novena (nine days in
petition, nine days in thanksgiving) where I usually pray the
Rosary and Divine Mercy Chaplet. This Chaplet is very powerful
when prayed for the sick and dying in front of the Blessed Sacrament.
I began this Novena after I read an article in a recent edition
of 'The Word Among Us'. I figured that if it worked for the man
in the story, it could work for me too. Also, Father Mathew Naickomparambil
from Potta, India, told us that when we are praying for our loved
ones, or ourselves we should pray for everyone in the world with
the same problem.
I am attaching
a list of praises to the Blessed Trinity, which can be used at
prayer time or during Adoration. God bless you, and I pray that
the person for whom this is meant will find peace and blessings
in the Lord.
In Christ,
Diane
