Erik asked Him for one.

This
Llama was hogging all the food at the petting zoo
at
the Cass Scenic Railroad in Cass, WV

So
I had to lower the food for the goats,
and
create distance between the Llama and my left hand, holding more
food.

Candy
the Contented Cat in Fort Ashby
I
used to have a dream that I was wandering around the ridge that
overlooks my former residence there. It was a very astral
dream, and very lonely, looking for friends and finding none.
Later, I realized that I was, while asleep, with this cat, and
empathizing with her. She appeared at the door of the
residence just as Comfort the Way-Shower was in the throes of a
mortal illness.
The spirit of Comfort told to me that it
was urgent that Candy be allowed into the apartment, to do some
kind of spiritual "baton passing" between Comfort and
Candy. But this the lady of the house would not allow, for
fear of infecting the new cat with Comfort's illness. I
was rather distressed at this refusal of hers to cooperate with
the wishes of the cats' souls, which was a matter of great
importance to them.
However, years later I passed some
energy, some holy spirit or prana, I don't know how to define
it, but I passed it to the soul of the deceased Comfort, and he
said to me, "Oh, that was all we needed. Since you
have done that, it is no longer important for Candy and me to
have gotten together before my passing." I have
expressed this communication in my own words. |

"Skippy" stars in real life rescue
September 22, 2003
A kangaroo has been hailed a hero after he helped rescue a farmer knocked unconscious by a tree branch during weekend storms in north-eastern Victoria.
The kangaroo kept banging on the door of the family's house in Morwell in Gippsland after discovering the farmer lying unconscious
in a paddock, Rural Ambulance Victoria paramedic Eddie Wright told radio station 3AW.
Mr Wright said the man, who has not been named, was checking his
property for storm damage when he was struck by a falling branch and knocked unconscious on Sunday.
In a story reminiscent of an episode of Skippy, the kangaroo led the farmer's wife to where her husband lay with serious head injuries.
The kangaroo had been adopted by the family about 10 years ago, after authorities let them care for the wild animal because it was blind in
one eye, Mr Wright said.
The man was taken to Melbourne's Austin hospital with serious head injuries.
Mr Wright said the farmer could have died if he had not been found so soon.
"The kangaroo alerted them (the family) to where he was and went
and sat down next to him and that's how they found him," he said.
"The farmer's wife followed the kangaroo because he was acting out
of character.
"It's not a pet as such, it's just an animal that's adopted them
(the family) over the years and comes and goes as it pleases, they were
fortunate yesterday it was in the area."
Yeah, people don't realise how tame native animals can become. When
my family owned a farm, we raised a wombat after it was found in
it's dead mother's pouch. It grew to full size, and new it's
name like a dog, ie. you could call it and it would come running. We
named him Mad Max, or Max for short, as he would take a run up from
the other side of the lounge room, sprint and head-butt the couch,
(or your leg if it got in the way - ouch!). Wombats are like a solid
ball of muscle.
He preferred to eat 'Meaty Bites' (a brand of dry dog food).
We kept him in a pen next to the house, but as he grew bigger, he
started to dig large tunnels (as wombats do) under the foundations.
So we had to give him away to the Wildlife Service, who took him
deep into the Penrose State Forest. But he came back! I don't know
how many kilometres he travelled to do so. He also must've crossed
the major highway that runs between Sydney and Canberra. A
true Road Warrior!
