Let us pray and send our strength to our resident little kittens (not furries) and their momma and their momma's momma who're struggling

May God, through the intercession of Ss. Francis of Assisi and Gertrude of Nevilles, bless and protect our feline friends.

May they be kept safe from harm and danger, and may they always be treated with the love and respect they deserve.

May they find comfort in our care and affection, and may their lives be filled with joy and happiness.

Ss. Francis and Gertrude, we ask for your intercession, that our cats may be blessed with good health and strength.

We ask especially for your prayers and aid for the intentions of @Rad_juju's family in protecting Sheila and her kittens from their present illness and weakness.

May they bring us laughter and companionship, and may we always strive to be worthy of their unwavering love and loyalty.

Ss. Francis of Assisi and Gertrude of Nevilles, pray for our pets and all animals, that they may be protected and cherished as precious creations of God.

You are truly kind for spreading word on my behalf. I was up all night with Sheila and only relaxed once she'd eaten and taken dose one of meds. Shes in so much pain in her tummy

Thank any who send her and the babies good energy.

This is the traditional Franciscan Order Prayer for Animals:

V. Our help is in the Name of the Lord,

R. Who made heaven and earth.

V. Lord, do not deal with us according to our sins;

R. Nor according to our iniquities render unto us.

V. Thou wilt save humans and animals,

R. According to the measure Thou has multiplied Thy Mercy, O God.

V. Thou wilt open Thy Hand,

R. And Thou shall fill every animal with Thy blessing.

V. Lord, hear my prayer.

R. And let my cry come unto Thee.

V. May the Lord be with you.

R. And with thy spirit.

V. Let us pray. O God, who hast even offered unto the labors of men the solace of many animals: humbly we beg Thee; not to allow, those without whom the human condition is not nourished, to perish from our use. Through Christ Our Lord.

R. Amen.

V. Let us pray. Humbly do we pray, O Lord, for Thy Mercy: so that this (these) animal(s), which is (are) vexed by grave infirmity, may be by Thy Name and the virtue of Thy blessing + [make sign of cross over animal(s)] healed. Extinguish in them every evil power, and let them not be sick any more. Be Thou, O Lord, for them the Defender of Life, the Remedy for Health. Through Our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who lives and reigns with Thee in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God throughout all the ages of ages.

R. Amen.

V. Let us pray. We beseech Thee, O Lord, kindly turn aside from Thy faithful all scourges: and drive away every pernicious disease that rages against this [these] animal[s]: so that we who have been merited punished for wandering from Thee, might, being corrected, be favored with Thy mercies. Through Christ Our Lord.

R. Amen.

Now, sprinkle holy water upon the sick animal(s).

"The world is in flames. Are you impelled to put them out? Look at the Cross. From the open Heart gushes the Blood of the Savior. This extinguishes the flames of heck. [My fellow Carmelites,] make your heart free by the faithful fulfillment of your vows; then the flood of divine love will be poured into your heart until it overflows and becomes fruitful to all the ends of the earth.".

–St. Teresa Benedicta a Cruce (St. Edith Stein)
