I keep a prayer journal and I have a page for animals. I will be praying for Kiwi. I rescued a male stray with FELV in May. He is doing very well now, but he was very sick and nearly died. In addition to all the medical and nutritional things you all are doing, I stroked him and prayed over him continually. I am so grateful to have him. His name is Puku.
