It made me want to be a vegetarian, and not many things could pull that from me. Very tender and endearing, a must if you love animals. ( ) Kathy Stevens, the founder and administrator of the Catskill Animal Sancturary in upstate New York, relates the story of the sanctuary's mission to rescue abused and neglected farm animals. Many of the stories in the book revolve around such animals as Buddy, the blind horse of the title; Rambo, a rambunctious ram; and Paulie, a precocious rooster who enjoys sleeping in bed with Kathy and riding in her car seated on a nest of towels. She does at times seem to anthropomorphize some of her animal characters just a bit too much. Although not the main focus of her book, the author does spend some time detailing the abuses of agribusiness in the raising and slaughter of cattle and chickens. One can enjoy her stories of rescuing abused animals without necessarily subscribing to her call to forsake the eating of meat. However, she will give some readers a few matters to ponder in this regard. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
More than anything else, this is a book about love. In this deeply moving account, you will hear about Rambo, a sheep who informs the staff when another animal is in trouble; and Paulie, a former cockfighting rooster who eats lunch with humans; Dino, an old toothless pony who survived a fire; and many more. Alongside these horses, roosters, pigs, sheep, rabbits, cows, and other animals is a staff of loving humans for whom every animal life, even that of a frog rushed to the vet for emergency surgery, has merit. Reading this book can profoundly--and joyously--change your life. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
