There is a healing quality that comes with caring for animals. Maybe that’s why caring for them is so popular, while caring for people is not so popular. I think it heals the broken parts of us. Is balm for our wounds. Animals demand little, and accept what we can offer them. I think when parts of us are broken, we are very drawn to the care of animals. It is healing just to watch Rocky love his tall, be brushed, get his feed and vitamins. He is doing well. He is making us better.
