Christmas is all about giving, and more often than not those who give the most are the poorest of all.
In the Belgian city of Dinant, at the entrance of the Church of Our Lady (Collegiale Notre-Dame), you will find two beggars, Ivo and Yan, and their pets, Kenzo the dog and Tchoutchou the cat. They were the perfect representation of that Christmas spirit.

"We are so very grateful for our pets," Kenzo's owner said. "We'd do anything for them. First, we think about their wellbeing, and only then do we eat."
Kenzo the dog was the one who set the right example. "Six months ago, Kenzo found a three-week-old kitten in the bushes. He refused to leave it behind. We had no choice but to bring the kitten along and to bottle feed it until he was grown enough."
This is a heart warming story and much needed not only because of Christmas but what happened in Berlin at the Christmas market. Obviously this pussy cat does not stray
ReplyDeleteso sad..
ReplyDeleteJoyeuses fêtes de fin d'année de la part de IVO, KENZO, YAN et TCHOUTCHOU
ReplyDeleteI've always know beggars and homeless people to take better care of their pets than themselves. Love that the took care of the kitten, and the pup looks so happy.
