New Year’s Eve is fast approaching and it will be a second full moon for December.  Thus the term “blue moon.”   The full moon and its pull on our physical as well as mental body is power filled.   We have a choice in what we focus on in any given moment.  If we play the “blame game” or live in fear, survival mode or any of the other patterned responses within us our focus is on being a victim to the outside world.  We wonder where is God in all of this?

He is INSIDE of YOU.  Seek the peace within and you will see manifest his love in the world he is.  We have given focus and belief to manipulation and greed.  Complaining about politicians and the place the world is in will only feed fuel to the fire of fear.  NO ONE can control your inner peace and your thoughts.  Building the muscles of knowing self and divine balance takes time, no one can control that but you.

I had the pleasure of working with a mother daughter team from Sheridan Wy this morning.  I want to share and hopefully spread the word about a different kind of cat shelter, one where the cats are considered individuals and not victims.  The energy is nothing but supportive of individual personalities, likes and dislikes.  What follows is a short piece I asked them to write to share with everyone.  Check out the web site and the newsletter link you will find there.  It is worth the read.

About us:

We are a private cat rescue group consisting of two all-volunteer rescue entities in Sheridan, WY. Our rescue is a cage-free home sanctuary. We are completely no-kill and only help our cats move on when they request it of us.

Cats come to us from various sources. Many have come from the animal shelter when they were sick or the shelter was overburdened with animals. Others come to us from friends who find lost cats and kittens on their ranches or abandoned on the side of the road. Some have shown up on our doorstep alone, having been led there by some guide knowing we could help.

We are not a public animal shelter. Our cats only move on to new homes when they are ready. In some cases, they are never ready and remain with us their whole lives. Others choose to stay to help comfort and heal new cats coming into the house. For those that would like to move on to another family, we take care in selecting a family that meets the needs of the individual cat, and final approval of the family is always up to the cat involved.

Our cats are attuned in Reiki monthly and several consider themselves to be the “healers” of the house. We are certainly grateful to them for helping others (and us!) feel better when sick or sad. We strive to make sure our cats are happy and feel respected and loved. We ask their opinions on things daily and try to provide jobs to do for those who want them.

Although we are applying for federal non-profit status (we are recognized as a non-profit by the State of Wyoming), we are still in our infancy as an “organization.” As such, any donations, no matter how small, are greatly appreciated. Our goal is to move into a larger home outside of town to give the cats more space and provide us the opportunity to help more cats.

Our website is http://sheridancatrescue.org We would be happy to answer any questions you have.
