Today I turned 55

My first thought was that I thought I’d have accomplished more by now.  I was kind of surprised by that thought since I’ve grown our real estate holdings (personal and for the sanctuary) to over 6.6 million dollars and because I’ve come to see the day when sanctuaries are competing to rescue big cats because so few end up in need of rescue; thanks to laws that ban private possession.

 

I guess everyone feels this way when they see the last of the grains of sand sinking through the hour glass funnel.

 

We are under threat of a tropical storm right now and Jamie and Justin are planning to fly in from NJ today, so I hope the winds are not as bad as predicted.  Howie and I would like to go to lunch and a movie to celebrate my birthday, but it will be hard to relax knowing that the weather is threatening ALL of my kids today.

 

Hi, I’m Carole Baskin and 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.
