On Sunday, September 10, 2006, the Reverend Jorge Reyes, O.S.A., Pastor of St. Mary of the Assumption Parish celebrated a mass to honor Our OOLadyO of Caridad del Cobre, Patroness of Cuba. This is the day that thousands of Cubans all over the world bow their heads to honor the Virgin venerated for centuries. Myth tells us that around the year 1680, two brothers, named Rodrigo and Juan de Hoyos, accompanied by Juan Moreno, a 10- year-old slave, were looking for salt needed to preserve the meat at the slaughter house which supplied the town of Santiago del Prado, now known as El Cobre. The three were in a fragile canoe across the Bay of Nipe, in the Oriente Province, when they had to take refuge from a storm. The next day, with the calm, they continue their trip to the salt deposits when they saw in the distance something floating on the water. As they got closer, they found the statue of the Virgin Mary holding the child in her left arm and a gold cross in the right hand. The Virgin was on a piece of wood with an inscription: “I am the Virgin of Charity”. According to sworn testimonies of witnesses, despite being in the water, neither the statue nor her clothing was wet. A sanctuary was built Dalia Díaz, José Ruiz, Carmen Rivas, Isabel Albero, Esther Collao, María at El Cobre, Oriente Province, Cuba, to Peña, María Ruiz, Alberto Surís y Clara Dube son algunos de los cubanos house the 16 inches tall statue, que asistieron a la misa. instantly becoming one of the most venerated religious places in Cuba.

ADOPTION ATHENA, MINI-LOP MIX, AGE: 2 YEARS!! OLD, GENDER: SPAYED FEMALE !!! Athena is a medium-sized, Mini-lop and approximately 2 years of age. Despite being abandoned, Athena appears to be a social, laid back bun. She has proven to be quiet and patient when being handled by the shelter staff and volunteers. Athena would do well being adopted by a committed family with whom she can form a trusting bond; one that will feed her healthy treats, litter train her and provide her with the care and attention she’s been missing. We think she’s a special bun with a lot to offer a loving family.

MISU, DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR, AGE: YOUNG, GENDER: FEMALE If you’re a cat person then you know that the great thing about cats is that they have such unique personalities. Well, Misu is no exception. She is a tolerant and affectionate cat who would be great with a family. She does well with other cats and may even do well with a dog, although she has never lived with one before. Misu was a little camera-shy so her photos don’t do her justice. Please come down to Nevin’s Farm and meet her!

LEANDER, DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR MIX, AGE: 10 YEARS OLD, GENDER: NEUTERED MALE This handsome boy is Leander. He is here because his owners moved out of the country and could not take him with them. They miss him and have called to see how he is doing and whether or not he has been adopted. Leander is a mellow boy who loves to be with people. He enjoys lap time and being cuddled. He loves to rub his face against your hand. Leander gets along well with other cats and would probably enjoy sharing his new home with a feline friend. He would not enjoy sharing with a canine companion, however. According to his owners, he and the dog next door did not “see eye to eye.” While Leander does enjoy toys, he prefers interaction with his human companions. He is used to getting canned food twice a week as a treat, but certainly won’t mind if you serve it every day. Come and meet this sweet, special boy.
