Come visit the Catskill Animal Sanctuary, where "love is spoken." In her first book, Kathy Stevens, founder of CAS, shares her stories that shows the rehabilitative power of love--a guardian sheep, an aqua-phobic duck, the titular blind horse, and more. After giving up her career as a teacher, Kathy Stevens bought a run-down old farm to create the Catskill Animal Sanctuary, a safe haven for abused and unwanted animals.
In this deeply moving account, she shares stories readers won't be able to forget, of...
- Rambo, a sheep who informs the staff when another animal is in trouble
- Paulie, a former cockfighting rooster who eats lunch with humans
- Dino, an old toothless pony who survived a fire
- And many more
Alongside these horses, roosters, pigs, sheep, rabbits, cows, and other animals is a staff of loving humans for whom every animal life, even that of a frog rushed to the vet for emergency surgery, has merit. Reading this book can profoundly--and joyously--change your life.
