Tribute to Shasta Serval 4/16/91 - 10/30/10 Arrived at Big Cat Rescue 6/27/97 Shasta arrived at Big Cat Rescue with Peaches and Alpha. She had been retired from breeding. She had an amazing metabolism and could eat as much as a cougar without gaining weight. She was discovered to have a rare form of Discoid Lupus for which she received medication the rest of her life. Though Shasta was up in years, she still found the energy to be quite playful. She would take an enrichment tube and bat it around, stirring up leaves and pine needles in a frenzy to keep up with it. October 2010 - Shasta had not been eating well, so we took her in to see Dr. Wynn. After 2 hours of surgery, an inoperable cancerous tumor was found. At 18 years of age, we decided the only option was to help her slip into that next realm while still under anesthesia. Thank you everyone who made her life in a cage bearable and for all of you who are working hard to end the trade in exotic cats. Mike Murdock Dies SPRING LAKE - Michael Eugene Murdock, 60, of Spring Lake, died Sunday, Oct. 31, 2010. He was an Air Force veteran of the Vietnam War. Services: Graveside, 2 p.m. Wednesday in Sandhills State Veterans Cemetery. Visitation, 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. Wednesday at Adcock Funeral Home in Spring Lake. Survived by: Daughters, Mary Montengro and Jamie; brothers, Bill and James Jr.; sister, Brenda Parker; and a grandson.
I've been writing my story since I was able to write, but when the media goes to share it, they only choose the parts that fit their idea of what will generate views. If I'm going to share my story, it should be the whole story. The titles are the dates things happened. If you have any interest in who I really am please start at the beginning of this playlist: http://savethecats.org/
I know there will be people who take things out of context and try to use them to validate their own misconception, but you have access to the whole story. My hope is that others will recognize themselves in my words and have the strength to do what is right for themselves and our shared planet.
