5 GOOD REASONS FOR
HAVING YOUR CAT NEUTERED
DID YOU KNOW... |

A morning kiss, a discreet
touch of his nose landing
somewhere on the middle
of my face.
Because his long white
whiskers tickled,
I began every day laughing.

'Cats make one of the most satisfying sounds in the world: they purr
... A purring cat is a form of high praise, like a gold star on a test
paper. It is reinforcement of something we would all like to believe
about ourselves - that we are nice.' - Roger A Caras
"Of all the [cat] toys available, none is better designed than the
owner himself. A large multipurpose plaything, its parts can be made to
move in almost any direction. It comes completely assembled, and it
makes a noise when you jump on it." -- Stephen Baker
Garfield: 28.03.86 - 12.06.06

Ten Commandments For Pet Owners
submitted by Trisha Morales, Florida, USA
I'm sure if animals could tell us what they wanted from their
Human family, these words would sum up their needs.
My life is likely to last 10 to 15 years or more. Any separation from you will
be painful.
Give me time to
understand what you want from me. Don't break my spirit with your temper, though
I will always forgive you. Your patience will teach me more effectively.
Please have me
spayed or neutered.
Treat me kindly, my
beloved friend, for no heart in all the world is more grateful for your kindness
than mine.
Don't be angry with
me for long, and don't lock me up as punishment. After all, you have your job,
your friends, and your entertainment, I only have you.
Speak to me often.
Even if I don't understand your words, I understand your voice when it's
speaking to me. Your voice is the sweetest sound I ever hear, as you must know
by my enthusiasm whenever I hear your footsteps.
Take me in when it's
cold and wet. I'm a domestic animal and am no longer accustomed to the bitter
elements. I ask for little more than your gentle hands petting me. Keep my bowl
filled with water. Feed me good food so that I may stay well to romp and play.
By your side, I stand ready, willing and able to share my life with you, for
that is what I live for. I'll never forget how well you've treated me.
Don't hit me.
Remember, I have teeth that could easily crush the bones in your hand, but I
choose not to bite.
Before you scold me
for being lazy or uncooperative, ask yourself if something might be bothering
me. Perhaps I'm not getting the right food, I've been out in the sun too long,
my ear may hurt, or my heart may be getting weak.
Take care of me when
I get old. For you will grow old, too. When I am old, or when I no longer enjoy
good health, please do not make heroic efforts to keep me going. I am not having
fun. Just see to it that my trusting life is taken gently. And be with me on
that difficult journey when it's time to say goodbye. Never say, "I just can't
bear to watch it." Everything is easier for me when you are there. I will leave
this earth knowing with my last breath that my fate was always safest in
your hands. I love you.
Trisha Morales,
Florida

A
Cat's Prayer'
Lead me down all the right paths,
Keep me from fleas, bees, and baths.
Let me in should it storm,
Keep me safe, fed, and warm.
Let the sun shine where I lay,
Keep me young so I may play.
And most of all ...
Bless the people I adore,
And guard me from the dog next door.
