KITTIES WHO ADOPTED THE CRAIG FAMILY

KALLIE
is now about two years old. 
She's still very small. 
She was found on the railroad tracks
by someone who used to come
to our ministry just about three weeks or so
before Wilma. 

BARRY just showed up at our house one day and decided to live with us.

 


JAZZY
came up to us as I was walking
out of the hospital on June 22, 2007. 
He's a real character!
