This time it’s Jane’s jungle Earlier this month, NYC’s largest Gothic cathedral celebrated the annual feast day of St. Francis of Assisi and his ancient Blessing of the Animals.

For 11 years, until the pandemic, I hosted a similar animal’s holiday at St. John the Divine. We loved all — the young, babies, healthy, strays, police dogs, the sick, frail, old, rescues, a frog, fish in containers, turtles, horses outside, sheep, pigs, cows, camels, donkeys, chickens, goats.

Even a choir and a rabbi for the Jewish animals. Police rerouted traffic. I remember His Eminence Cardinal Dolan flat on the floor petting a Chihuahua — while a Great Dane awaited his turn.

We had prayers, choir, music, scripture, photographers, reporters, clean-up people. Approximately 2,000 New Yorkers and their furry, feathered, scaly family members.

Now at Amsterdam and 110th. Jane Fonda chatted with the Cathedral’s first-ever female dean. Fonda, after the Procession of the Animals, headed to Harlem for fried chicken and collard greens at Melba’s.

Thanks. We all have our troubles in life but losing material stuff is one of the least and in this instance nothing too valuable. Fixing the window and all the little glass bits in the vehicle was the worst part.
