A Memory to Cherish
**Life is made of moments. Some escape us for a while, only to return at unexpected times.** 

This morning, I was walking outside, enjoying the crisp air and quiet, thinking about the times I spent volunteering at a sanctuary that rescues wild animals.

# Singing at Valley of the Kings Sanctuary

---

It's been twenty years, now, since I got to spend my time with lions, tigers, wolves, cougars, and an assortment of abandoned, formerly-abused, and retired animals. There was a camel, I remember, and a barn full of semi-feral cats who were all fixed and well-fed. The kitties would try to sneak into your car to get you to take them home if you weren't watching. 

Such characters, all of them.

When I lived closer to the sanctuary, I'd drive almost two hours each way to visit, stopping at a grocery store along the way to pick up trays of chicken legs and any meat that was on sale to feed to the cats through the chain link fence. Some of the older cats couldn't eat the bones, like the young ones, so I'd get them ground turkey. They loved the treats, and would make a sound that wasn't quite a purr, but came across the same way.

Valley of the Kings Sanctuary continues to provide homes for wild animals of all kinds. There are foxes and turkeys, and a giant turtle, it appears, looking on their FB page. It's an amazing rescue organization run by people with such big hearts.

**I think about my time there often, but, until this morning, I'd completely forgotten one special day I spent there.** 

A friend of mine came up with me, and he brought his guitar. At the end of the day, when most of the visitors were gone, he and I gave the animals a concert. I sang, he sang and strummed. The pride of lions near us watched and listened with interest, as did the rest of the animals.

Afterwards, when we'd finished, the tigers and lions roared, giving us a concert of their own. What a powerful, magical memory! I'm so glad it appeared in my brain this morning, bringing tears to my eyes.

*Life is made of moments. Cherish the good ones!*

Thank you! It was such an amazing experience. You can always sing to your pets. They don't care how good you are, just that you give them attention, but you knew that. ;) And any kind of offering you can make local rescues helps, even if you're just dropping off a few extra towels and blankets. There are so many rescue organizations that do amazing work, and every little contribution makes a difference. I just read your post about your pup, and I know you're already making a difference. Keep being you!

Any time! I'm kinda jealous because the only wild animals that sing to me live in my house and have my last name and sometimes scream and cry and did I say my kids? BWAHAHAHAAA! I do love a good cricket or frog concert with the songbirds as back up vocalists. Could you imagine living like in or near a jungle?

Edit: wait, you did, didn't you?

I love animals and am just a little jealous of your close proximity to the animal rescue. I am not so sure about those **lions and tigers**. I would be afraid that they would *eyeball* me for lunch as I am a bit overweight and any discerning wild feline knows: &nbsp; 

*The fat surrounding the meat adds to its flavour.*

Well, I am glad you had a good time with the *kitties*. Thank you for sharing your experience with us at the #PYPT Podcast!

Ha! Those big cats are well-fed, so I don't think you'd have anything to worry about. I don't live close to this rescue anymore, but it was wonderful to visit when I did. Thank you for the colorful comment and the SHADE. You made me smile. :)

Right? I'm team tiger all the way. Unless they're hungry and don't have another food source. In which case, a strong enclosure is key, and finding them some yummy treats pronto. ;)
