About me:

..

Animal lover, soft heart, gets taken advantage of because I try to "save" everyone and everything! Done with that, animal rescue only! No more zookeeper wannabees who just need keys for their ego... show me what you got -if you wanna volunteer. RESCUE ANIMALS, SAVE LIVES= SERENITY PEACE AAAHHHH...I'm an advocate against ANIMAL CRUELTY and a woman with MS, fighting against MS. Former model, starved myself for beauty and to make men happy. Ended up with Multiple Sclerosis, thought my life was over. Then INSPIRATION hit me, thought, I love animals, my soul and heart beats for the animals. I had a bobcat for a pet -illegally. Thought, I'm gonna make this right. Sold my house in Tulsa, and moved to the country to save my soul!.... while saving animals lives. Now I live for animals. They love me old(er), not so perfect (ok chubby), and animal love is truly unconditional...

As Brigitte Bardot said " I gave my youth and beauty to men, now I choose to give my love and wisdom to animals". I love that!!! It is sooooo me. If you love animals, and haven't been to Safari's (my zoo), you haven't lived. You actually get to KNOW every animal, they are so smart, beautiful, and each one has a distinct personality. You will never get the feeling of safely "knowing" a tiger many other places in the WORLD. Check us out at www.safarissanctuary.org - and DONT use mapquest to find me -you'll never get here that way!! I used to race cars (champion by the way), dirt raced and road raced. Used to model (all cheesy bikini, fashion stuff- it traveled me all over -it was fun, but now old news.) Started Safaris in 1995 with a handful of critters -and now have over 200! Married to a perfect husband - finally! Animals will always be my relaxation, my love, my everything. Animals always tell the truth, love you unconditionally, and never get tired of hearing you chatter. :)
....
You know, I have a new sense of WHY I'M HERE... WHY I've been dealt the cards I have. WHY WHY WHY... I've asked that ALOT. I just want to be there to help. Share some of my experiences (and I've had alot!). And maybe help animals and nice humans.... as the sign on my Safaris front gate says " If all beasts were gone, man would die of great loneliness of spirit. For we are all connected." THE CIRCLE OF LIFE... WE ALL MUST WORK TOGETHER TO MAKE THIS WHOLE THINK CALLED LIFE WORK... I HELP THE ANIMALS, THINKING I'M DOING SUCH A GRAND THING, WHEN THEY HAVE ACTUALLY SAVED ME. HOW IRONIC?! ..
