Bernard the mouse is the janitor at the Rescue Aid Society, an organization comprised entirely of mice and dedicated to the rescuing of prisoners, wherever they may be.

Rescue a Child

Posted on by

It’s Christmas Eve and we are putting the children to bed. Last night, one of our grown children stayed at the house and let my wife and I go to a late movie. We went to see the new Will Smith movie titled The Pursuit of Happyness. It’s a good movie that I would recommend about a man who went from being homeless to very successful.

They provided numerous services to help me take care of this newly found dog. Because of how badly he’d been treated, they gave me a lot of discounts because Kai needed a lot of stuff done. I put Kai on the medical plan they offer that reduces cost and they cut costs for me. We scheduled his shots and to have him spayed. The cryptoid required … Continue reading →
