Two Real-life Cat Saviors

(1) In our bedroom area late last night, Kat got on the counter and deliberately made eye contact with his soulful, beautiful yellow/green eyes.  No, he was not interested in his food bowl.  Yes, our usually aloof cat wanted to be scratched all over. He then jumped off the counter, and did a fast trot down the hall.   He did a repeat of this behavior.

Later,  I made my way down the same hall to do a last-minute check of the kitchen before hopping into bed. That's when I heard dripping water.  Hubby had left the faucet on in the down stair's bathroom.  The sink was not draining properly, and the dripping had gone on long enough for water to accumulate over 3 inches.  The cat, sleeping in the living room, took note of the loud noise -- which I could not hear in our bedroom area -- and was bothered enough to attempt to draw my attention via his aforementioned behavior.


If left on overnight, it would have caused flooding  and damage to the bathroom's  floor. We would also have had to pay for the wasted water. We already pay a high enough fee to Chicago, our water's source, for pete's sake! Thank God for using our perceptive and intelligent kitty to save us money. Next time Kat gives me a prolonged look with his gorgeous googly eyes, I will take it as a hint of potential trouble brewing and do a thorough check of the entire house.






(2) Here is the another story of a heroic and even more perceptive cat:

Pakistani Christians in Thailand

These Christians are between a rock and a hard place.   They travel to Thailand on a  temporary Tourist Visa to escape death, war or violent threats.  They tend to overstay while in Thailand as it takes a very long time for the UN to process a move  to another country  as a Refugee.  Thailand's legal system does not recognize the Refugee status when they do overstay. Next up -- Prison? Detention Center? Months or years of hide-and-seek?


What to do, what to do?!  Other than praying for the Lord's continued provision, care; and the speeding-up of the Refugee process, here is a way that you can help.

Based on the the book by Arthur Brooks called Who Really Cares: The Surprising Truth About Compassionate Conservatism

I have asked hubby to check it out at our local library.  Otherwise, it is available for purchase on AMAZON .
