I had some health issues in the last years, so I couldn’t get married. However, my cats keep me company. I thank Saint Francis for sending them to me. I only ask for a good wife, but one who’d certainly love the cats because I can’t imagine life without them.

After the wedding ceremony my fiancé and I ran to the beach. There we took off our shoes and celebrated the beginning of our life together. Then we took a horse and came back to the party. All the old ladies looked at us with reproach but we didn’t care bakes nothing could darken our illimitable happiness.

I thank Saint Francis because I earn enough money to support all the stray cats that come to my house. And they give me their love and keep me company.

The cat died giving birth to the kittens. We were afraid that the kittens would die also—from hunger. But happened so our dog gave birth to her puppies. She accepted the kittens, she breastfed and cleaned them. We thank Saint Francis for such a good dog and the kittens are all right.

My daughter Laura loves to care about animals. Since she was little she fed all the stray cats and dogs that she found. She would’ve adopted them all, if I had permitted her. I think that being a veterinary is her vocation. I thank the Virgin of the Rosary because my husband has a good job and we can pay for her studies in the University to become a certificated veterinary.

I thank the Virgin because I married a wealthy man and could quit my tiresome job. Now I can dedicate all my time to my cats and my garden and wait for the birth of my first baby without worrying.

A strong wind, as it was sent to us by the demons, took my children, me and even our dog in the air and threw us far away. I thank the Virgin of Zapopan because we didn’t get hurt thanks to her divine protection.

One night some martians landed on my farm. They got in my bedroom through the window. I thank the Virgin of Zapopan for they didn’t abduct me or my dog that didn’t even wake up. One of my slippers is all they took. They though it was a very valuable object.

One day I forgot to lock the cage, and the canaries flew out. I was scared that my cat ate them or they flew away in the window. Fortunately, the cat didn’t eat them. The birds didn’t go away and were flying around the room and the cat was staring at them smiling. Then they came back to the cage. Now I leave the cage open so they could fly a little when they want to. I thank Saint Francis for this incredible miracle.

My horse got out of control and broke into a gallop. It wouldn’t stop, and I thought the horse would kill me. Thanks to the Virgin of Zapopan the Manuel Martinez’ son managed to stop it and save me. I thank with this retablo.

July 25, 1965

I was doing my laundry, when a crocodile tried to attack me. I was paralyzed with fright and only prayed to Saint Michael the Archangel for protection. Then I heard the sound of a sword, and the scared animal went away. I thank Saint Michael the Archangel for the miracle.

There was a fire in our house on May 3. I was on the third floor, and I thank the Virgin of Guadalupe because me and my cats were saved by a fireman. Everyone was saved, and the fire was extinguished promptly.

I became a sleepwalker. I was afraid I might have an accident while sleep-walking. But the Virgin worked the miracle and made my cats protect me. When I went to a dangerous place, they began to meow loudly and I woke up avoiding the danger.
