All of our daughters love critters- but one seems to attract animals in need and we call her Ellie Mae. She recently married a man in the Army and it has been a challenge for them to find housing where she can have even part of her critters, and so far haven’t found a place where she can keep her horse. She is still adding to the problem by recently taking in orphan kittens. Her hubby loves animals too, but seems at times both amused and frustrated by her menagerie. When he found out he was going to be deployed soon he made the comment that most men worry that they will return and their wife will have moved in another man- he says he will worry that he will return to find she has moved her horse in the house. He says he is expecting “Sarge” to call him aside in Iraq one day and tell him there is an issue with his wife having a zoo since he won’t be home to tell her “no” on getting more animals.
