If you feel you really love animals, this book is for you. If you feel how much your animals love you, this book is for you. Our feelings profoundly affect the health of our animals as well as our own health - physically, emotionally, mentally and Spiritually. When we Heal these feelings by Feeling the Love We Already Are, tremendous, life-changing events occur. Our animals health is dramatically improved, as is our own. We are tremendously powerful creators of our own reality, and by turning to Feeling the Love We Already Are, we can help create Health for our animals, for ourselves, for Earth and this Universe we all live in together. Ultimately, surrendering to the Love We Are is the most Healing of all, and the most Healing for all. Through stories, examples, metaphysical and Spiritual messages and exercises, this book explores how to help Heal our animals and ourselves. As free will beings, we are able, with the help of God, to Heal. This is true for our animals as well as for each of us. In this time of Earth Changes and Natures Healing, the animals are Healing too. As are we all, if we so choose.

OUR animal friends are usually supposed to be included in the home pets, and the domestic animals which are useful to us in so many ways; but when we learn how closely some of the wildest and fiercest of animals are of the greatest benefit to mankind, how they resemble us in the formation of their bodies, and in the care and love for their little ones, how the many different kinds of animals scattered all over the world are related to each other, and how they are divided into families, we will have a more friendly feeling toward all the wonderful creatures which are often looked upon as the enemies of mankind, and a greater interest in their habits and lives in their native homes. In this little volume of Natural History we will not only study our animal friends as individuals, but will learn of their relationship to each other, carefully arranged and classified, but much more easily understood, than the classification found in the numerous great volumes of encyclopedia of Natural History. We are always interested in the relatives of our human friends; even their distant relations living in far off countries soon have a special interest for us when they are closely connected to our friends, and we are constantly learning of their manner of living and their doings in distant lands. In the same manner we find new interest in the fierce wild animals of other countries when we learn how they are related to our domestic animals and home pets. We find that not only the Wild Cats, but the fierce Lions, Tigers, Panthers, Leopards, Lynxes, Pumas, Jaguars, and many smaller animals, belong to the same family as our pet Cats. The Wolf, Jackal, Hyena, and many different kinds of Foxes are all closely related to our good friends, the Dogs. The Sheep and Cows have some very fierce relations in distant countries, as the Gnu and Yak and Bison, and also some very accommodating and useful relations, like the Camel, Dromedary, Llama and Paca, who are as helpful to their masters and owners as the domestic animals of this country. We would not suppose at first thought that our Horses belong to the same family as the Rhinoceros, Hippopotamus, Elephant, and the Tapir and many smaller animals which are classified with them, besides the different kinds of Ponies, Donkeys, and the Dauw and Quagga and Zebra.

This is a psychosexual thriller involving two detectives and their personal relationships. Detective Abby Kane and Detective Dean Frost search for a serial killer who stakes his victims while trying to keep their wayward wives, Kara and Rayna in line. The two women are very close friends and quite troublesome. It is difficult at times for the detectives to try to balance their personal lives using consensual spanking with their spouses and solve a murder case but they manage until it's a race against time to save Kara and Rayna. How is it possible that they could both be in danger at the same time in two different places?
