    Hmmm stories about meesha?
    I’ll start at the beginning, How Meesha came to be.
    I have had animals all my life, growing up on a working farm I’ve had animals of all walks of the animal kingdom.
    I can honestly say while I have cared and loved many animals, meesha is the first one I fell in love with (sounds strange worded that way, but if a soul mate could be an animal meesha was mine.)
    After the passing of my husband, I had a tough time figuring out how to handle the void. I became involved with rescuing dogs through a local shelter. With each rescue a little of the void would disapate.
    I found where I was supposed to be, the look on an animals face after they finally knew love and kindness was like nothing I’d ever witnessed.
    Meesha was one of those rescues.
    It was instantaneous love.

    • Oh, what a lovely, and loving, story, T. So heartfully written and expressive. In the book “The Traveling Cat Chronicles” (I highly recommend it to every pet lover), the cat tells us animals have their “Person”. Meesha had you as her Person. Makes sense that just as we have special relationships with animals, they have with us, doesn’t it? And your ongoing work with, and for, other animals is so kind, caring and generous of you. Thank you for sharing this with us
      • I actually have “the traveling cat chronicles” I also would recommend it to every pet parent. Believe me when I say you all will get tired of hearing about meesha, lol. While I still cry over missing her her stories actually give me a way to deal with her departure from this life. Yes I have gone on to adopt another rescue, 2 actually, who I love immensely, and the one thing I have learned with rescuing the pain we suffer at loss is evened out somewhat with the joy. Meesha was my ultimate joy ( as will the two I have now I’m sure) I just really miss my meesha girl immensely.
