ABC Wednesday, A for Amazing Animals
















After the cyclone Larry, which raged over Queensland in March 2006, many buildings had been destroyed and although there weren't many casualties, a lot of people and also pets became homeless. Fortunately  many of those animals were rescued by kind men and women. It was amazing that these animals were peacefully lying side by side in a car of one of the rescuers . There were three dogs already in the car when a cat joined them.Lateron another dog came and was received by the others as if they had known each other for a long time already. . And all in good harmony. They respected each other's company,that this was their only chance to survive. Here you see how devastating Larry's work had been.

These are photos from a newspaper by an unknown photographer.

Oh that house - it will take many months to repair that! Were you there when the cyclone hit? This week I'm showing the windmill we together visited 3 years ago in Kinderdijk:) Great memories, Wil! You are things going for you?

Awesome...Animals all together warm ans safe. Thank the lord for
human kindness. let's hope their owners were traced and the damaged and
lost homes have been restored or replaced, there's been some vicious weather
worldwide over the last few years. It's a good job that Noah built his ark
and rescued all those animals...Good thinking Noah !

Best wishes,
Di.

This really is an AMAZING post! I admire animal rescuers so much and especially in such difficult circumstances. And it is fascinating that the animals knew that they had to get along. A lesson yet to be learned by humans.

I love your post, Wil. The man helping the animals. The animals helping each other. It all touches my heart.
