Why adopt an older pet or a disabled one when there are so many young "perfect" ones needing a home? Well, the older and/or disabled ones need a home too and can be just as loving and fun to have around. Perhaps people like her will one day learn the joy of having her own Homer.Jans Funny Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15291874914770283114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8627712042216587517.post-41504725478018259042011-04-19T23:46:31.683-04:002011-04-19T23:46:31.683-04:00My best furriend and mentor ::bows head:: Jonathan...My best furriend and mentor ::bows head:: Jonathan went blind suddenly because of high blood pressure.

I know how she feels about you Homer cause we have a kitty with a disability too and our Mom loves her to death. Course she loves all the rest of us too. People that don't love animals, whole or not, are just very unhappy people and should never have one. Homer, we think you are purrfect and just love this blog.
