Fayth's Profile

in 1989, I was driving around Little Five Points, Atlanta's artsy-West Village type area, where I really wanted to live but felt I couldn't afford. It was a particularly dark period in my life, lots of deaths, desertion and I had to move. So, I asked for God's help, "Lord, I would really like to live in this neighborhood. Would you help me?" Just then I passed a pre-war building that had a For Rent sign. The one-bedroom was sunny, had high ceilings, hardwood floors, French doors, a large screened lanai, allowed pets and was only $375/mo.The best thing was I felt like I was back in NYC where I had lived for eight years.
Now, I'm living in Honolulu where the cost of paradise is astronomical but we're blessed with an apartment that meets all our needs.
So, my suggestion, in pidgin, is "Try pray." Jeremiah 29:11 (New Living Translation): "For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope."

Declawing is not removing the claw (fingernail), it is removing the first digit, which is like cutting off the tip of the finger. The cat is unable to defend itself. This is a barbaric practice and has been outlawed in England. Many veterinarians will not perform this mutilation.
If you choose to have your cat declawed to save your furniture, you do not deserve to have a cat and are no better than Michael Vick or anyone else who victimizes animals for fun and profit.
