Customer Reviews

This tugs your heart strings!!

This book was wonderful!! It made you laugh and cry, which is the scale I judge books on. The stories were written in different styles, making it so personal. And it makes you want to head down to the nearest animal shelter to see how you can help. Congratulations to the author. I wait for her next compilation.

Animal Friends Volunteer

I became aware of this book through the local Pittsburgh Shelter I volunteer for - Animal Friends. The only no-kill shelter in the city of Pittsburgh. It has many heart warming stories and I've sat reading many with tears in my eyes. It not only tells tails of pets from Animal friends, but other rescue groups as well. A must for any animal lover out there.

Cosmo'smama

This book is the best I've read about rescued pets. Too many people look at rescue and shelter pets as second best. Nothing could be further from the truth. This book shows pets who have changed lives. Whether they come to us at a time we need a best friend or we rescue them when all of their chances are gone. Animals make lives better every day! Thanks to Chris for telling their stories!

Great Bedside Reading!

I highly recommend this book. It makes great bedside reading. It reads easily and each story is an uplifting tale of an animal's journey to or with their human. It also includes a good list of ways to help the animals in your community!

"Purrfect" for the pet lover's soul!

From cover-to-cover, you will find yourself laughing, crying, and wanting to share these true stories with others! Journey to a land where previously unwanted shelter pets live amazing lives helping the handicapped, protecting citizens, renewing faith in miracles, and changing lives forever! Then, read about how you can help a shelter pet and experience a few "miracles" yourself! A great book and easy read for people of all generations.
