Meows, purrs and much love to you from MARTHA and Julie ("meow!) the Calico Princess. Your story touched our hearts. Cats can heal humans, too...I may not even be alive today if my Julie had not come into my life just before Thanksgiving of 1994, when I was recovering from a major depression. I believe the Lord created animals to love and be loved by us humans...they give us so much more than we ever can repay. They are truly four-footed channellers of the Holy Spirit of God. By the way, I agree, your markings are really striking, Peppa. I have never seen anyone like you before! But I am glad I saw you today, and read your wonderful story. Blessings on both you and your human friend.
