Yea! it's really amazing now that we think back on it.
Kristy had the same calming effect on our horses, she could walk up ona green horse andstart rubbing them down and have a bridle onthem in less then15 minutes, on a horse that no one elsecould get within 20 feet of but she had been around these horses foryears and petted them often thru the fencesowereally didn't think too much of it till she started trancing theBunnies & now the dogs.:shock2:
I think she's just now figuring outthat she hassomespecial connectionwith animals. I don't know if it's aspecial gift or that she just has such a Big Heart and is a verysensitive person and the animalscan since this or just knowsomehow!:dunno: but Iknowshe'll continueon this path, as she has always wanted to help animals.
My wife reminded me of a story yesterday that I had totallyforgotten about!
Three years ago one of ourcats brought a tiny baby bunny up on our front porch,the cat hadn'tkilled it but had been pretty rough in playing with it thinking it wasa toy!
I told the wife and kids that I didn't think it would livewithout it's mother,but Kristyrefused put it back in thewoods so something else could kill it.
This little bunny was probably3 or4weeks old(maybe) but could hardly move even though it didn't seem thatanything was broke and there was no blood anywhere. Kristy brought itin the house and put it in a box of hay and feed it kitty formula foraround three days and had it eating horse feed(pellets) by the forthday. She did all this on her own as we really know nothing about babyRabbits at the time. She came up with the idea to feed it horse pelletssaying it was good enough for the horses and that racoons andfoxeswould steal it from the horse trough whenever they got achance so she new wild animals liked it!:biggrin:
On the 5th dayKristy took this baby bunny out back and set inthe grass for hours hoping to see some oftheotherwildbunnies that liveinour3 acres ofbackyard.
Well a couple of hours (like 4)went by and Kristy Runs in thehouse saying "Thumper"had found his family.
onder: I really don't know if she just got tired andfinally let it go but My little girl set out there for 4 hrsdetermended to find his family.:cry1:
She said after all that time ofsitting outthere shefinally saw 2 Rabbits in the distance about 75 feet away feeding onsome long grass so she let the Baby "thumper" out of his box and hetook off runningbut the wrong way, she said she prayed thathe'd see the otherbunnies and run to them. Well the otherbunnies saw him first and my daughter was far enough away that theydidn't get spooked.The Rabbits slowly worked their waytowards each other and when Kristy saw them sniffing andsmellingaround each other she figured he'd be OK and that'swhen she ran in the House Screaming!:dancing:
I don'tknow if this little Bunnie ever really MadeIt but My 7 yr old daughter spent 5 1/2 days dedicating everything shehadto this Baby Bunny and it's the only way I will think ofhowit reallyturned Out!:yes: :group2:
