Have a Little Faith
Well, latest update on Ralph the kitten. I have found him a new home at a lovely animal shelter where he will be put up for adoption. This weekend was one spent on worrying, crying and finally faith. Let me start from the beginning.
After I had dropped Ralph off at a friend's, I begun the task of getting him put up for adoption. Numerous phone calls and emails later, NOTHING. All this time I had this strange cold feeling in my stomach, the feeling that I get when I know something bad is going to happen. Anyway, after endless worrying and waiting for replies from people, I had yet to find him a home. By Sunday, I was near tears as I knew what his fate would be if I was unable to find him a home. All I could do was pray, and pray I did. I prayed long and hard, and I decided to accept the situation as it was and let HIM take over. I knew that HE wouldn't let an innocent animal suffer and whatever should happen would be HIS will. So I placed all my hopes and worries into my faith in him and even then, I still couldn't get a good night's sleep.
Early this morning, I received an email that would change everything. A pet shelter had just opened and they took in strays who needed a home. All I had to do was contribute $30 a month for Ralph's lodgings and food. My heart suddenly felt so much lighter, I quickly sent them an email, asking them if they would take Ralph. After numerous email checking and still no reply, I decided to give them a call. So tomorrow, Ralph would be on his way to his new home where he will be loved and hopefully get adopted.
My faith has always seen me through hard times like this, especially when it had to do with the animals that I have tried to rescue and re-home. So sometimes, it really does pay to have a little faith.
