DREAMS & WISHES INC,
No-Kill Animal Rescue
Until There Are None Save One
We are a small, non-profit, animal rescue, with our primary focus
being the rescue of abused, neglected, and homeless cats. As our
name dictates, we are Dedicated to the Removal and Eradication of
Animals Meaningless Suffering and Working to Insure Safe Homes
for Every Stray.
We are a small group of volunteers and foster families dedicated to
the placement of homeless and abused animals into safe and loving
homes.
Our Dreams:
*To provide sanctuary for abandoned and abused animals and to find them permanent loving homes
*To further public education about neglected, abused, and homelesspets; To further public education on the importance of spay/neuter
*To create awareness and support, within our community, for the humane treatment of cats both domestic and feral;
*To spay, neuter and vaccinate EVERY animal that comes into our program
*Provide comfort to animals awaiting placement in permanent loving homes.
Our Wishes:
To some day build a sanctuary that will house hundreds of abused
, abandoned, and homeless animals that would otherwise be killed in
shelters or die alone on the streets. We DREAM big but our goal is
to become the largest "No Kill" rescue in the state of Tennessee!
We hope to have a building designed that would be the most
modern, up to date animal care facility in the state. We would like to
branch out and include large animal rescue (horses, sheep, cows,
etc); rabbit rescue, ferrett rescue, and specialize in so-called
"dangerous" dog rescue (i.g., pit rescue, dobies, rotties, etc.)
How can you help us achieve this goal?
You can help us achieve our goals by donating to our building fund!
If you have land or a home that you are willing to donate to our
cause or even willing to rent WE NEED YOU!
SPECIAL MISSION
Currently they are discussing the banning of Pit Bulls in Kingsport, TN. Please write to the Kingsport Town Council, Police Department, elected officials, and newspaper to let them know how you feel about this ban. We must not allow the banning of Pit Bulls. It's the deed, not the breed.
In honor of the most beautiful Pittie girl I know...Ms. Cheyenne!

"IT'S JUST A CAT"
From time to time people tell me, "Lighten up, it's just a cat," or,
"That's a lot of money for just a cat" They don't
understand the distance traveled, the time spent or the costs
involved for "just a cat."
Some of my proudest moments have come about with
"just a cat."
Many hours have passed and my only company was
"just a cat," but I did not once feel slighted.
Some of my saddest moments have been brought about
by "just a cat," and, in those days of darkness, the gentle
touch
of "just a cat" gave me comfort and reason to overcome the
day.
If you, too, think it's "just a cat," then you
will probably understand phases like "just a friend," "just a
sunrise,"
or "just a promise."
"Just a cat" brings into my life the very essence
of friendship and pure joy.
"Just a cat" brings out the compassion and
patience that makes me a better person.
So for me, and folks like me, it's not "just a cat" but an
embodiment of all the hopes and dreams of the future,
the fond memories of the past and the pure joy of the moment.
"Just a cat" brings out what's good in me and diverts my
thoughts
away from myself and the worries of the day.
I hope that someday they can understand that it's not "just
a cat"
but the thing that gives me humanity and keeps me from being
"just a human."
So the next time you hear the phrase "just a cat."
just smile....because they "just don't understand."
