- I couldn't stop the tears knowing the human heart pounds harder in crisis not just for our own species but for all living creatures. I have 9 feral rescued, neutered/spayed cats, two dogs, three birds, a ginny-pig, All rescued from the streets. All live in my large mobile home where the law is only two pets per home. Thank God the park manager has a heart for the helpless and she turns her head. I do all I can. I'm a praying person and I'll sure keep Taylor in my prayers. Thank you for running the article.
