We paid for the "Historical Tour" of Churchill Downs, but the tour guide brought us out in a hurry to see the morning exercise routine for the resident horses instead. I'm fine with missing the historical details.

the interactions between the older and younger orphans is very moving to watch. us human animals could use a little more of that....

Our sweetest experiences of affection are meant to be suggestions of that realm which is the home of the heart.

Affection

"Aint no Love" in the heart of the city? I beg to differ. VisArG.com

She really didn't want to slow down for petting just then,but after she got into it she was purring. She's so velvety soft,and loves to give face hugs. A few have had unkind comments about Zoey. Maybe they just never met a Sphynx. They are wonderful !
