Animal Talk Naturally Online Radio Show

The below is from our friend, Maggie Wright, African Grey expert and repeat guest here on Animal Talk Naturally. Many people think these birds are nothing more than flying rats. However we’re asking you to look at the bigger picture of what is happening in the form of harm to these birds and the fact that our government is continuing their erosion of our freedoms in nazi-like fashion with these micromanaging laws that do absolutely nothing for anyone, especially the animals! - Kim Bloomer, Animal Talk Naturally!

***UPDATE December 23, 2007***

A few weeks ago I wrote to you about the plight of the pigeons. There appears to be a trend among city councils to make it against the law to feed them ($1,000 fine), and so I guess the overall plan is to get rid of the little bit of Nature that is left in their “over-populated human” cities.

From Hooves & Paws Rescue, Inc.

This story is in honor of a horse we rescued May 6, 2007.

Betsy was in the newspaper. The ad read “Free Horse”, foundered, older mare, kids can ride.

This caught the eye of one of my volunteers. So she brought it to me and said, what do you think? I immediately called the phone number listed. I spoke with a man, not too friendly, but I should have known that after reading the ad.

We of course said we would take the mare. I asked when we could pick her up. Again the man was very rude and said, just come and get her but I don’t want to deal with any sheriff’s or cops.

I knew at that time she was in trouble. It was raining very hard and we loaded our trailer and headed out. [Read more →]

Zuzana with Bam Bam

By Zuzana Kukol

I always loved freedom, and I always loved big cats.

When I first moved to the USA in mid 1980s as a political refugee from former communist Czechoslovakia, one of my favorite movies became Zucker-Abraham-Zucker’s ‘Top Secret!’ which is a spoof of Elvis and World War II underground resistance thriller movies. Val Kilmer plays Nick Rivers, a Presley-like American rock idol sent behind the Iron Curtain to then East Germany on a goodwill tour. East Germans are depicted as Nazis and the Underground is mostly Frenchmen. [Read more →]

Just up the road is a field, with two horses in it. From a distance, each looks like every other horse. But if you stop your car, or are walking by, you will notice something quite amazing.Looking into the eyes of one horse will disclose that he is blind. His owner has chosen not to have him put down, but has made a good home for him.

This alone is amazing. [Read more →]

By Bill Clanton of All Pets Radio

They won’t hold a grudge. They won’t leave you for someone else. They know how to show their affection. They even know your feelings better than you do. Who are “they”? Well “they” go by many names, but most of the world just calls them “Pets”. Pets are wondrous creatures whose powers go beyond that of spiritual or magical. Perhaps that power is what the world needs more of.

Recently while being interviewed by a local newspaper reporter I was asked the question, “Why do you think that pets have become so popular in recent years?” I thought for a moment and then answered. “We are a nation at war, a nation still recovering from the after effects of September 11th, a nation rebuilding in the wake of a devastating hurricane in the South, all while living in a media spoon fed world with terror attacks in every news break.” I then went on to explain the key thing that separates us from our pets.

Humans often confuse me…with the exception of people like our friend Ron, who really seem to understand the real purpose of it all…here he is to share in his special way that is always filled with love, hope, and forgiveness.

by Ron Hevener

It was another sunny day in one of the most popular tourist spots in the United States.

The air had a light, fresh feeling to it; as it does sometimes when summer is crossing into autumn and the trees are just beginning to flutter their leaves to the ground.
